To hear practitioner and platform insights on how solutions such as ChatGPT will impact the future of work, customer experience, data strategy, and cybersecurity, make sure to register for your on-demand pass to Acceleration Economy’s Generative AI Digital Summit.

Highlights

00:08 — In the average business-to-business (B2B) sale, the purchase process is upwards of 70% complete before the buyer engages with the sales representative, says Tony. From the seller’s point of view, buyers want a more effective process.

00:41 — In considering B2B sales in industries, manufacturing is a “leading industry as it comes to factory automation.” AI on the factory floor is not new, but in sales and marketing — which is commonly referred to as the “front office” — automation is still relatively new.
