Artificial Intelligence is increasingly showing up in more and more business processes and sales is no exception. In this episode, I talked to Dennis Mortensen about how artificial intelligence can be incorporated into one challenging aspect of selling, which is getting meetings scheduled with prospects and clients. We talked about:
Prospecting best practices for sales people for using AI when trying to set up first meetings.
The etiquette of using an AI to schedule their meetings.
Dealing with the social dynamics when they are dealing with important customers.
How artificial intelligence can be used to handle a variety of meeting time requests and multiple people's schedules who also need to be part of meetings.
Enjoy the interview!
