Why You Should Never Mention AI in Your Sales Calls (Nick Casale, Handoffs)
30 Minutes to President's Club27 Feb 202434 min
Description
FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Do not neglect internal research when you're preparing for a sales call. Find out if your company has spoken to them before and dig internally. Prep for your sales calls by understanding lookalike conversations your team has had in the past. Use the lighthouse email to engage someone at the top, mid-deal cycle. Don’t just pull them into the boat. Let them know that the boat is there and you have an awesome champion so they can affirm you’re in the right place. Don’t say “AI” in your sales call. Instead, focus on the problem they want to solve and what they want to do.

Focus on selling and doing your job with human intuition, with true human personalization and actually trying to get the other person on their line to take the meeting, buy your service, whatever it is you're actually trying to do.
In Tools and AI
You could have someone like log into your account and do it, or you can do it through a couple other tools. But it's not false. I'm not reaching out. I'm just automating something that I would do anyway and would take me way longer. But yeah, you just have them basically do that process of connecting with all the people that you want to have in your network, because we all know it's a lot easier to go in and “send those messages when you're already connected to someone than if it's completely cold.” And you start to have people notice these chains of mutuals where they're like, okay, Nick connected to these other 30 people I know that are CS leaders or whatever it might be. That's a really good sign. Yeah. One thing that I was doing related to the prep itself is a lot of times I'll find that a
