In order for salespeople to truly engage, build value, and develop long-lasting relationships, they must compliment their selling approach with sales enablement tools and technology.

I want to tell you an old story that you need to know. For 14 years I've been writing a blog post every day, minus 13 days when I was in the Himalayas and I went to Mount Everest.

Loyalty. What’s emotion got to do with it? That emotional connection to a brand is extremely important to customer loyalty. It’s often been thought to be a key driver of loyalty. It goes beyond a product’s or service’s functional benefits and taps into customers’ feelings, values and identity. True loyalty is about more than transactional convenience or pricing considerations.

So I’m back full time-ish to the SF Bay Area. As, often quietly, are so many leaders and execs I’ve known for years. I spent about 60% of my time since lockdown in SoCal, 30% in Palo Alto, and the rest in Misc. It wasn’t to work at the beach, it was for family reasons. But still, I like many of us went from someone who never felt they could leave the SF Bay, to someone who well, did.

And while autonomous AI is on the rise, and is supposed to reduce effort for agents, recent research suggests that humans are doing more in customer service, not less.

You can’t if you are scaling. What do I mean? Well of course the burn is the burn, and the budget in the end is the budget.
