This is a joke. Have you seen this? https://lnkd.in/gF59sYU I’m sick of it. I’m sick of Chad Burmeister and ScaleX.ai pushing to replace sales development with automation and #AI. It’s too much and it needs to stop. Will sales development be replaced by AI? No! And it shouldn’t be. AI and automation are here to enable sales development reps not eliminate them. I’m tired of the conversation that sales will be replaced with #AI. It will never happen. There will always be room for people in sales. So why don’t we focus on that, let’s focus on how we can enable sales reps, rather than eliminate them. Can someone get Chad Burmeister to shut his mouth? If you think this is interesting, here are my other trends for 2019 to check out: https://lnkd.in/gBih3Jk #sales #marketing #technology #salesenablement #salesdevelopment #AI
Wow!? What a post of comments.? I see all parts of the arguments but technology is going to continue to change the landscape for all professions!? Reading about Fasten: Challenging Uber and Lyft with a New Business Model case study in my Harvard Business Analytics Program?currently, and last week it was Facebook, the week before Google and autonomous cars.? Keep the debate going, see what is working, be open to evolving.? Don't be Blockbuster whohad an opportunity to buy Netflix!? #shibbyshares
Gabe Larsen,?I love your attitude about AI and sales. I do think it will enable many sales professional to a new level. Then there is a but... I do see that the number of salespeople overall will be reduced by AI/technology. Not just salespeople, but many other fields, i.e. truck drivers replaced with self-driving trucks, etc. This will be continually pushed by shareholders looking to increase profits and reduce costs, i.e. people. Unfortunately, this type of thinking has been going on for decades.
keep fighting Patrick Delaney !!! What do you think? are these roles at risk? #AIForSales
Tom Blue, does data help with the AI?
I agree 100% Gabe!
Too much fluff with AI/ in? sales . Data is king but the value of sales rep helping clients solve problems is never going away .. I know this because we do this everyday !?

It sounds like you’re scared you’re going to be replaced by AI. I think you have every reason to be ;-)
