I’ve noticed a huge gap in how we equip and train our sellers, how we help them engage our customers in high impact conversations that focus on them and their problems, not pitching our projects. This gap became bigger with Challenger, as we equipped our people to provide “Insights.” And more recently, with new customer research and AI tools, the gap has become even greater.

The poseur looks the part: Mont Blanc pen, attaché case, tailored suit, and an excellent business card. They’re the image of competence and success. Initially, it's challenging to discern that the salesperson isn't truly a salesperson. However, as this person begins to speak, their true nature as something other than a salesperson becomes evident. The longer the poseur speaks, the more apparent it becomes that they fall short of what the buyer requires.

One of my favorite songs, as a kid, was Carly Simon’s “You’re So Vain… ” It was not only a great song, but provoked decades of discussion about who she was singing about. Fast forwarding to current times, based on how we engage our customers, we demonstrate a similar vanity. We think our customer care about us–they obsess about our companies, our products, and how great we are.

Today’s buyers expect more than generic outreach–they want relevant, personalized interactions that address their specific needs. For sales teams managing hundreds or thousands of prospects, however, delivering this level of personalization without automation is nearly impossible. The key is integrating AI in a way that enhances customer engagement rather than making it feel robotic.

Google initially announced the plan, which only applies to accounts that haven’t been used for at least two years, in May, giving users six months to take action.

In a recent LinkedIn Post, a young man brags he used AI to steal the titles of his competitor’s posts. Once he had the titles, he used AI to write a post for every title, stealing their traffic. I am certain he is telling the truth about this, and that it’s working. I hope there is a place in hell for barbarians like this, but it's more likely his life is already a kind of hell.
