How will your Sales and Marketing team respond to buyers using AI?

There is a lot of chatter about using AI:
๐Ÿ‘‰ To do things faster
๐Ÿ‘‰ Mine customer data
๐Ÿ‘‰ Create personalized sales scripts
๐Ÿ‘‰ Automate social media posts
๐Ÿ‘‰ Create content at scale

And that is fine if cost cutting and efficiency is your goal.

But if your goal is new sales, then you need to think about:
๐‡๐จ๐ฐ ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐›๐ฎ๐ฒ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐‚๐ก๐š๐ญ๐†๐๐“ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ข๐ซ ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ซ๐œ๐ก๐š๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐œ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ?

There are two key concepts to understand about buyers and how they use ChatGPT:
๐Ÿ - ๏ธ ๐๐ฎ๐ฒ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐จ๐จ๐ฅ๐ฌ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ค๐ž ๐‚๐ก๐š๐ญ๐†๐๐“ ๐ญ๐จ:

๐Ÿ- ๐‚๐ก๐š๐ญ๐†๐๐“ ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฐ๐ž๐›๐ฌ๐ข๐ญ๐ž ๐ญ๐จ ๐Ÿ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐š๐ง๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ.

The proper counter-response is to make sure that your website:
โœ… Answers sales questions that the buyers ask ChatGPT
โœ… Describes the outcomes / benefits of your products and services
โœ… Is designed not just for humans, but for AI bots

AI is rapidly changing the way buyers find solutions and determine which vendors to call.

If you are not answering buyers questions on your website, then you are losing leads and sales.

In the words of my friend Amy Silberman's grandfather:
