Confession time. I’m terribly lazy. I want to accomplish a lot, but I want to do it with minimal effort. As I look at selling, today, it requires far too much effort—far more than I’m willing to do. After all, we have to send 1000s of emails a day, we have to make 100s of calls, we have to spend hours doing outreach in LinkedIn and other channels.

Today’s buyers expect more than generic outreach–they want relevant, personalized interactions that address their specific needs.

In reading an article about the latest hints and tips in using AI for prospecting, a sentence stood out to me. It talked about how “mundane” outbound is. The idea of reaching out, trying to engage prospects in talking about their challenges, problems, concerns, as well as their dreams and aspirations is boring and dull is striking. And, perhaps, it is this mindset that underlies the poor results we get from our prospecting.

Many sales organizations struggle with building consistent, qualified pipeline because their sales teams are spending too much time “working around the opportunities.” The key to driving qualified pipeline is focusing your team on the territory, not the opportunities.

It’s human nature to be uncomfortable with uncertainty. We are driven to have answers, to seek solutions. We, often, display avoidance behaviors–persisting in doing things the way we have always done them, even when we know they are no longer effective. We choose to do nothing primarily because we don’t want to face uncertainty.
