Since Paul Graham’s fascinating article on Founder Mode, I’ve been reading/rereading his article and listening to Brian Chesky talk about his re-wiring of AirBnB.

In addition, there have been a lot of RevOps conferences, where these leaders talk about developing the function. While none of these discussions have been “wrong,” I worry that so much more can be accomplished.

So clearly AI is rapidly changing the way we do sales, but how will it all shake out? Over in the contact center and post-sales space, we can already see 20%+ of customer support execs been routinely replaced by AI. But what about the more personal sales side? AI SDRs have taken off more quickly than AI AEs (although personally, I suspect more value will be in AI SEs and AEs that can answer my deep product and pricing questions instantly, without games).

Digital natives aren’t like the rest of us. They are bringing entirely new behavioral patterns into the B2B buying process, and experienced marketers and sellers ignore this at their peril.

Dear SaaStr: What’s the #1 Reason You See Sales Reps Fail These Days? The #1 reason I see sales execs struggling today in new roles: they are convinced their playbook is better. And refuse to run the one that is already working. They are convinced they know better. That the founders are wrong, or whomever is running things is either wrong, or to be ignored. “That’s not the way I do things” or some variant is something I often hear these days.

Companies dedicate time, resources, and budget to onboarding new hires, only for them to forget what was learned in those first few weeks, lose motivation, and struggle to come to grips with their role.

They recognized that the value of a lead extends beyond MQLs and SQLs, reframing it as a powerful account signal for prioritization and scoring. ABM platforms enabled marketers to peer into the crystal ball of intent data, identifying which accounts were in-market for solutions.
