???????????????? ?????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ?? One of the biggest challenges in enablement isn’t the work itself - it’s proving that work drives revenue. Because here’s the reality: Budgets don’t go to the teams that work the hardest. They go to the teams that prove their impact in numbers that matter to the business. That’s why Sales Velocity Labs is excited to announce our partnership with Yoodli AI Roleplays. Thanks to Yoodli AI Roleplays, we’ve integrated custom AI-powered enablement role plays into The Strategic Enablement Blueprint, you’ll now be able to: ? Practice high-stakes conversations with CROs and revenue leaders ? Get AI-driven feedback to master your executive presence ? Have the confidence to handle objections in budget discussions before you even walk into the room In today’s climate, enablers not only need to master how to deliver a revenue-generating strategy - they need to master how to communicate it in a language that leadership responds to. ???????????? ?????????????? ?????? ?????? ???? ???? ????????. ?????? ?????????????????????? ?????????? ????.

Sales onboarding is broken... For years, companies have accepted 3-6 month ramp times as just the way things are. But in 2025, that’s no longer sustainable. Gartner reports that 25% of organizations will update their onboarding programs with GenAI this year—and if you’re not one of them, your reps will fall behind. AI isn’t just a nice to have anymore—it’s fundamentally changing how sellers learn, apply knowledge, and get up to speed. Here’s how: ? AI Role Play – Reps practice talk tracks with AI and get real-time coaching—no more waiting on a manager’s schedule. ? AI Tutors & LLM Search – Instant answers + just-in-time learning = reps who don’t waste hours digging for info. ? Automated SOPs and Bite Sized Training – Time-sucking SCORM builds? So 2024. AI now creates training materials instantly. ? AI Agents in Sales Tech – Personalized follow-ups, next-best actions, and automation that makes new reps productive faster. ? AI-Powered Coaching for Managers – No more guessing—AI pinpoints exactly where reps need coaching. But the big question: Where do you start? I put together five critical AI-driven onboarding upgrades you can make right now—no overhaul required. ??

Most teams say they’re “experimenting with AI.” But what does actually effective AI adoption in GTM orgs look like? I’ll be diving into that at Emblaze Revenue Summit in Denver - sharing how enterprise teams are using Yoodli AI Roleplays to transform GTM training. What’s working, what’s not, and how to avoid the fluff. Some things I’ll unpack: 1) The surprising ways AI is being used post-onboarding for coaching and reinforcement 2) Where we’re seeing ROI (and where things still fall flat) 3) Real examples from the field—what leaders at Google, Databricks, and Sandler are doing differently Big thanks to Corporate Visions and Emblaze | Revenue Community by Corporate Visions for powering this must-attend event for sales, enablement, and revenue leaders.

Last night, we hosted our first Yoodli AI Roleplays x The Revenue Insiders enablement dinner in Seattle—I left feeling really energized and grateful! A few reflections from the evening: 1?? Seattle’s enablement community is growing fast. SF and NYC often get the spotlight, but there’s incredible talent and momentum here. We were lucky to have folks from Salesforce, Snowflake, Databricks, Google, DocuSign, Highspot, Unify, and more join us—each bringing thoughtful perspectives and ideas. 2?? Enablement is playing a key role in driving AI adoption. With teams needing to move faster and scale smarter, enablement is stepping into a more strategic seat—especially with the rise of genAI across GTM. 3?? AI roleplays are resonating. It’s been exciting to see how teams are using them beyond onboarding—think coaching, assessments, and continuous skill-building. Huge thanks to Kelly Lewis and Tiffany Jones for helping bring this to life. Grateful for the conversations and hoping this is just the beginning ?? (If you’re in the Seattle enablement space and want to get involved, would love to connect!)

Hiring at a fast-growing startup is a journey. And like all good journeys, it’s full of unexpected lessons. Early on at Yoodli AI Roleplays, we optimized for firefighters only—people who could jump into any crisis, wear multiple hats, and thrive in ambiguity. These were the scrappy, resilient folks who did whatever whenever to get the job done. But as we’ve grown, I’ve realized that firefighting alone isn’t enough. Scaling requires people who can transition from solving chaos to preventing it—those who can take ownership, build the playbook, and improve it. Two qualities have stood out in our best hires at our current stage: 1) Integrity without compromise—They do the right thing, even when no one’s watching. 2) Growth firefighting mentality—They tackle problems head-on, but with optimism and ownership to make it better for their colleagues. The tricky part? Identifying these traits in an interview. We’ve found that behavioral questions help: 1) “Tell me about a time you went beyond your responsibilities to solve a problem.” 2) “Can you share a moment when you faced an unexpected challenge and how you handled it?” Every hiring cycle is a chance to refine our approach. While integrity is non-negotiable, we’re learning the difference between hiring firefighters and hiring those who can build—and rigorously follow—fireproof systems. With this in mind, we’re hiring for a few roles - VP of Sales, product manager, CSM, backend and engineer! If this sounds like you (or someone incredible you know), please reach out—ideally via a warm intro over email. Appreciate any recommendations. #startups #hiring #leadership #growth
