The Death of a Salesman

In this episode I discuss the merits of AI, will it replace the role of the sales person? What is Artificial Intelligence in the context of sales? Will benefit the customer? Is it all just a lot of marketing bluff, or is there actual merit in leveraging AI as part of your sales & marketing strategy?

If you are a Lawyer or Accountant or are in BD & Marketing within the professional services sector, then this is for you. I share my views & experience on why LinkedIn, and social media as a channel, MUST be a part of your BD & Marketing efforts for 2019 and beyond. Those of you who embrace this medium, affect the behaviour / mindset change to make this business as usual, will reap the rewards.

In this podcast, I discuss some really interesting stats from the Business of Apps which were released at the back end of 2018. One of which was that only 1% of the 600 million users post content on a weekly basis. This means there is still a huge opportunity for those that really want to engage in social to own their respective markets. I discuss why this is important for the modern seller and also some basics on how to start doing this.

Digital this, digital that. Every day something is being disrupted with the prefix of digital. The 4th Industrial Revolution is the world we now live in. 

What does this all mean for business, big or small?
