TOPIC OF THE WEEK
Spot the Difference: AI in Sales Edition
Let's play a little game first, shall we?
We’ll present you with two scenarios - 'Before AI' and 'After AI.' Your task? Spot the transformation and envision how AI can reshape your sales processes and internal workflows.
Scenario 1: Communicating Product Value
Before AI:
Manual Lead Research - The sales team spends hours researching each lead, trying to tailor their pitch manually.
Standardized Presentations - Their sales presentations lack personal touch.
Generic Email Follow-ups - Follow-up emails are one-size-fits-all, leading to low customer engagement.
Ineffective Lead Prioritization - The team struggles to identify and prioritize high-value leads, resulting in missed opportunities.
After AI:
Insight-Driven Personalization - AI tools analyze customer data to enable highly personalized sales pitches.
Customized Presentations - Sales presentations are tailored to each customer's industry and interests, thanks to AI's content optimization.
Automated, Personalized Follow-ups - Follow-up emails are automatically customized, drastically improving engagement.
Intelligent Lead Scoring - AI prioritizes prospects based on potential conversion, ensuring the team focuses on the most promising leads first.
Wait hold up, how did AI do all that?
AI can scrape a vast amount of customer data – like browsing habits, past purchases, and even social media interactions – in a short period of time.
What it does with this data is pretty cool. It uses these insights to tailor recommendations and interactions for each person.
A Zendesk research shows that 70% of consumers spend more with companies that offer fluid, personalized, and seamless customer experiences. Interestingly, nearly 60% of them expect businesses to use their collected data to create more personalized experiences.
Moral of the story: Don’t underestimate the power of personalization in winning over customers.
AI is also great at creating personalized follow-up emails. It can:
Mention specific points discussed in a meeting,
Reference particular interests of the customer, or
Provide tailored product recommendations.
When customers feel that kind of connection, they are more likely to remember the brand, return for future purchases, and ultimately contribute to long-term success and conversions.
As for predictive lead scoring, AI algorithms can:
Evaluate and rank leads based on various factors like the customer’s engagement level, demographic information, and their likelihood to convert.
It's an efficient use of resources and can significantly improve your sales team’s success rate.
Scenario 2: Streamlining Internal Sales Workflow with AI
Before AI:
Cumbersome Sales Reporting - Sales reps are bogged down by manual data entry for sales reporting.
Outdated Training Methods - Onboarding new sales reps is inefficient, relying on generic and outdated materials.
Unfocused Team Meetings - Weekly sales meetings are often about aligning on which leads to focus on, consuming valuable time.
After AI:
Automated Data Handling - AI takes over data entry, generating insightful sales reports and analytics – freeing reps to focus on selling.
Tailored Training Programs - New sales reps receive AI-driven personalized training modules, speeding up the onboarding process.
Data-Driven Meeting Focus - AI provides clear analytics on lead prioritization, making team meetings more strategic and less about alignment.
💰 Impact On Your Business
This strategic use of AI leads to more effective communication of product value, resulting in higher engagement, improved customer relationships, and increased conversion rates.
🏆 Winning Case Studies
Several companies have successfully leveraged AI to enhance their customer engagement. Here are a few examples:
✔️ Retailer BCG used Persado’s platform to achieve a 127% increase in revenue by using achievement-oriented language in its ads, which was found to be the biggest driver of new subscriber sign-ups.
✔️ Coca-Cola used AI to analyze sales data and identify customer preferences, leading to tailored product packaging and distribution strategies. This approach resulted in up to 30% improvements in sales and distribution efficiencies.
💰 AI Workflow Automation – What’s in it for you?
This is where AI shines - turning complex tasks into streamlined processes.
No matter the size of your business or the industry you’re in, AI workflow automation will inevitably reshape the way your company operates.
For one, your sales team will be liberated from manual data entry and report generation. This will not only boost productivity but also enhance job satisfaction as employees engage in more meaningful work.
As for new sales reps, AI's ability to customize training drastically reduces the learning curve.
AI brings life to training sessions by incorporating interactive, context-rich demos and visual guides – like what Supademo users have been doing.
For instance, instead of sifting through dense manuals to understand software like Salesforce, AI can guide new hires through an interactive, step-by-step journey within the actual platform.
Automation of training processes involves capturing the inherent knowledge of a process and making it scalable and easily accessible to new and existing employees.
This method ensures consistent training quality across the board, regardless of when an employee joins the team.
⚒️ Actionable Steps
Let's break down AI Workflow Automation into a three-step recipe anyone can follow:
First things first, take a good look at all the data you've been collecting.
Once you've got a handle on those patterns, it's time to decide what you want to achieve. What are your goals based on what the data is telling you?
Now, it's all about putting those insights into action. This is where things start to get really exciting.
Sure, this sounds straightforward, but it’s going to need some clever thinking and strategic planning.
✔️ For example, when digging into your data, AI-powered analytics platforms like Avian can help you spot trends, inefficiencies, and opportunities.
✔️ Another tip for a goal-oriented AI strategy is to prioritize areas of your business that will benefit most from AI optimization. Then set specific, quantifiable targets for each area to track progress and ROI.
✔️ Once you’re ready to roll out your AI solutions, start with one or two key areas first to avoid overwhelming your team and systems.

NEEDLE MOVERS
Is ChatGPT on the ropes? Gemini’s got some moves 🥊
Google's new generative AI model, Gemini, just made the AI race a whole lot hotter. Will ChatGPT soon play catch-up? Well, let’s dive into this.
The GPT-4 rival is the first AI model to surpass human experts on the MMLU benchmark, scoring a groundbreaking 90%.
It's a versatile powerhouse with three models: — Ultra for complex tasks, Pro for scaling across a range of tasks, and Nano for efficient on-device tasks.
Pro is already available for free in Bard and across Google apps
Ultra will be released early next year.
Nano will be available on Pixel.
While you were distracted by Gemini’s launch: Meta AI is not slowing down
While everyone's eyes were on Google's Gemini launch, Meta quietly rolled out its own AI-powered image generator tool, "Imagine with Meta."
Similar to OpenAI's DALL-E, Imagine with Meta uses Meta's Emu image generation model to create high-resolution images from text prompts. Currently free for US users, it generates four images per prompt.
That’s all for today!
