Build the right sales process first, then let AI amplify it." TOM'S TIP: "Begin with a workflow based on sound sales practices. Once that foundation is in place, AI can accelerate it in extraordinary ways. The difference between AI applied to a broken process and AI applied to an optimized workflow is almost impossible to overstate."

Instead of arguing about leads, both teams can align around understanding what prospects need to fix, accomplish, or avoid."

Pursue first the target-rich pool of those who appear to most want you. It is a lot easier to chase the ones that most want us."
