In today's rapidly evolving sales landscape, lead generation remains a top priority for Chief Revenue Officers and sales leaders. But with the rise of AI, changing buyer behaviors, and an overwhelming array of tools and technologies, how can sales teams effectively navigate this complex terrain? In this episode of the Modern Selling Podcast, I sit down with Zach Jones, Chief Revenue Officer at TechnologyAdvice, to explore the cutting-edge strategies and tools that are reshaping the lead generation game. With over a decade of experience in scaling sales teams and driving revenue growth, Zach offers invaluable insights into the current state of B2B sales and marketing. Adapting to the New B2B Buyer Journey One of the most significant shifts we discuss is the changing nature of the B2B buyer journey. Zach highlights that: 75% of the buyer journey now happens before someone wants to talk to sales 86% of buyers start with a shortlist of vendors 92% of purchases come from that initial shortlist This means that awareness and early education are more critical than ever. Sales and marketing teams need to focus on getting on that shortlist through strategic content placement and engagement across various channels. The Rise of AI in Sales and Marketing Artificial Intelligence is not just a buzzword – it's reshaping how we approach lead generation and engagement. Zach shares eye-opening statistic: There's been a 240% increase in page views from ChatGPT to their websites since January This shift towards AI-driven content creation and research is changing how buyers find and evaluate vendors. Sales teams need to adapt their strategies to ensure they're visible and relevant in this new AI-powered landscape. From Funnel to Rooms: A New Perspective on Lead Nurturing Zach introduces an interesting concept of thinking about lead nurturing not as a funnel, but as two rooms: Prospects who are ready to talk to a vendor Prospects who are not ready The key is figuring out how to move prospects from the "not ready" room to the "ready" room. This approach requires a more dynamic and personalized marketing strategy, leveraging AI and intent data to create tailored experiences for each prospect. Actionable Takeaways for Sales Leaders Experiment with new technologies and strategies – don't be afraid to break things Focus on niching down and segmenting your audience for more personalized outreach Leverage AI tools to level the playing field and enhance your team's capabilities Align your sales and marketing strategies based on your target market and how they buy Consider implementing an Account-Based Experience (ABX) approach for enterprise sales As the B2B sales landscape continues to evolve, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. By embracing new technologies, focusing on personalization, and adapting to changing buyer behaviors, sales teams can position themselves for success in this dynamic environment. Timestamped Summary of this Episode: 00:00:00 The Rise of AI in Content Creation AI tools like ChatGPT are becoming increasingly popular for content creation and personalization. Marketers are focusing on delivering more relevant, timely messages to smaller, engaged audiences rather than high volume outreach. The shift towards AI-driven personalization is changing how companies approach lead generation and engagement. 00:01:07 Introducing Zach Jones: CRO of TechnologyAdvice Zach Jones, Chief Revenue Officer at TechnologyAdvice, shares his background and the company's role in connecting tech marketers with B2B buyers. TechnologyAdvice operates multiple digital media properties and offers services like content creation, digital advertising, lead generation, and buyer intent intelligence.  00:03:27 From Punk Pop to B2B Sales: Zach's Surprising Past Zach reveals his unexpected background as the frontman of a punk pop band in college. This experience, while not impressing his future wife, showcases Zach's diverse background before entering the B2B sales and marketing world. 00:05:19 Evolving Lead Generation Landscape The lead generation landscape is shifting due to economic changes and emerging technologies. Key trends include niching down to target smaller, engaged audiences, leveraging AI for personalization, and adapting to the changing demographics of B2B buyers, with millennials and Gen Z now dominating. 00:08:18 Adapting to Modern Buyer Journeys Marketing and sales teams are adapting to new buyer journeys by embracing diverse media channels like podcasts, YouTube, and newsletters. The focus is on meeting buyers where they are and providing relevant content throughout their decision-making process, rather than relying solely on traditional lead generation methods. 00:10:11 Effective Sales and Marketing Tools While some companies are cutting back on tools, certain platforms like Sixth Sense and ZoomInfo continue to deliver ROI. The trend is moving towards efficiency and proven value rather than accumulating multiple tools. New opportunities in forums, Reddit, and connected TV are emerging as ways to engage buyers. 00:12:50 Key Metrics for Evaluating Tools CROs should prioritize usage and adoption rates when evaluating tools. Pipeline generation and productivity improvements are also crucial metrics. The focus should be on how tools increase efficiency and drive tangible results rather than just adding more features. 00:17:37 Intent Data and Personalized Engagement Leveraging intent data and behavioral analytics is crucial for identifying and engaging high-potential leads early in the buyer's journey. TechnologyAdvice is developing an AI-driven "intent to lead" model that creates personalized, timely outreach based on prospect behavior across their ecosystem. 00:32:40 Rethinking the Sales Funnel The traditional sales funnel concept is evolving into a two-room model: prospects are either ready to talk to a vendor or they're not. The focus is on moving prospects from "not ready" to "ready" through personalized, dynamic marketing across various channels and touchpoints. 00:36:42 Tailoring Strategies to Audiences and Verticals There's no one-size-fits-all approach to sales and marketing strategies. Leaders must consider factors like product type, sales motion, and target market to determine the most effective channels and tactics. Account-based experience (ABX) is becoming increasingly important for enterprise sales. 00:40:18 Advice for CROs: Experiment and Personalize CROs should focus on testing new approaches, leveraging AI, and personalizing experiences for target accounts. The key is to be willing to experiment, niche down, and use available tools effectively to stand out in a competitive landscape.

Your audience is getting smarter about launches! If you're still using the same old strategies, you're probably wondering why your results aren't what they used to be. In today's episode, I'm breaking down the five non-negotiable elements you need for a record-breaking campaign in today's competitive landscape. The truth is, buyers are picking up on cues. They know when you're launching the same offer repeatedly, and they're developing launch fatigue from back-to-back sales cycles with no breathing room. The solution isn't to launch less or give up on campaigns entirely. It's about elevating your approach with creativity and strategy. I'm sharing the exact framework I use: campaign themes that make each launch memorable re-engagement periods that build genuine community (not just sales funnels) platform personalities that create exclusive content experiences visuals that actually match your value and price point true exclusivity that you actually follow through on.  This isn't about working harder - it's about working more creatively and strategically to cut through the noise. In today's episode, we're chatting about: • Why buyers are getting smarter about launch patterns (and how to stay ahead) • The campaign theme strategy that makes repeat launches feel fresh and exciting • How to use re-engagement periods to build lifetime value, not just quick conversions • Why platform personalities prevent content fatigue and increase engagement • The exclusivity framework that creates genuine urgency without manipulation Connect with me:  Website Join our email list!

Welcome back to the ProfitSchool by MeasureU podcast Business Unfiltered with Mercer and Jeff Sauer. Today's topic is Where Does AI Fit In Your Sales Funnel? Mercer and Jeff define the sales funnel in terms of awareness levels, progressing from unawareness to problem awareness, solution awareness, and finally product awareness. Jeff outlines a B2B sales funnel with distinct phases: impression, lead, qualification, pitch/proposal, purchase, and onboarding. AI significantly enhances the "impression" stage by transforming long-form content, such as podcasts or client calls, into short, digestible social media clips for broader reach and increased engagement. AI tools streamline lead capture by helping to create intelligent lead forms and automate processes for gathering contact information and initial permissions from prospects. AI assists in the qualification process by helping to establish clear business rules and criteria for ideal clients, automating aspects of prospect assessment to ensure a better fit. AI empowers the "pitch and proposal" stage by generating presentations, proposals, and even guiding pricing decisions, helping users overcome perfectionism and iterate faster.

Welcome back to the Good Girls Get Rich podcast. I'm your host, Karen Yankovich. Ever feel like you have to post 87 times a day just to stay relevant on LinkedIn? Honey, no more. In this episode, I'm peeling back the curtain on the hidden features of LinkedIn that close high-ticket deals while you're at the beach (yes, I said beach — you know that's my soul place). We want to hear your thoughts on this episode! Leave us a message on Speakpipe or email us at info@karenyankovich.com.   About The Episode and Highlights: How to set up your Featured Section so it funnels eyeballs to exactly where the money is — your offers, your booking link, your thought leadership. Why your LinkedIn Newsletter is a low-key SEO powerhouse that emails your brilliance straight into inboxes without you lifting an extra finger. The overlooked magic of the Services Section — your personal LinkedIn storefront that screams “I'm open for business and worth every penny.” Let's get real: More posts don't equal more clients. Smart, strategic LinkedIn breadcrumbs do. And today, I'm giving you permission to ditch the posting hamster wheel and build a six-figure invisible funnel instead. Key Takeaway: LinkedIn is not TikTok. It's not your job to entertain the masses — it's your job to attract decision makers ready to pay you well for your expertise. These three features do that heavy lifting for you. Homework: Pick ONE of these three LinkedIn features this week. Polish it up. Make it magnetic. Then watch what happens.   Magical Quotes From The Episode: "LinkedIn is not here to entertain strangers — it's here to position you to attract aligned decision makers." "Your Featured Section is clickable proof of your expertise. Confused minds don't buy — so keep it clear and intentional." "I want you building an invisible sales funnel that works while you're sitting on the beach — that's real LinkedIn strategy." "More posts don't equal more clients. Smart positioning does. That's where your six and seven-figure contracts come from."   Resources Mentioned In the Episode: Connect with me on LinkedIn: Karen Yankovich — and peek at how I do this for myself.

To be effective, these guest spots need to put you in front of the right, ready-to-engage audience. Trust me, guesting isn't just a nice-to-have—it's a must if you want to build influence and turn your podcast into a thriving business. THE RIGHT PODCASTS Knowing which shows to target, and how to get booked as a guest, can make or break your growth strategy. Not all podcasts are created equal, and it's a mistake to guest on just any show. Liam explains why you don't need to focus on competitors; instead, seek out shows that complement what you do and speak directly to your ideal clients. For example, if you're a marketing expert for entrepreneurs, aim for podcasts that help entrepreneurs build businesses, not necessarily marketing podcasts. You want to get in front of listeners who actually want what you offer, not just more of what you do. GET THEM TO SAY "YES" But how do you get hosts to say yes, especially when they're inundated with generic, spammy pitches? You have to show up as the number one choice. That starts with hyper-relevant, personalized outreach—no copy-paste emails! Build genuine relationships by demonstrating you've listened to their show and understand their audience. And please, whatever you do, don't send cold pitches about unrelated topics. As I shared in this episode, nothing hurts more than getting pitched a cryptocurrency trader for a podcast about podcasting! LONG-TERM RELATIONSHIPS Getting booked is only half the battle. You also need a strategy to bring listeners from that appearance into your own world. Liam and I break down the power of value-driven call-to-actions. Always give immense value first. Then, invite listeners to take the next step with a compelling lead magnet. Whether it's a free checklist, a workshop, or a downloadable resource, the goal should be getting them onto your email list. This is where you have full control and can nurture real relationships beyond social platforms. GET STARTED Ready to put this into action?

Trying to DIY your way through AI isn't showing grit—it's wasting precious time and opportunity. And I say this as someone who LOVES to figure things out myself! I'm seeing too many capable founders (especially women) stalling out because they're stuck in what I call "prompt purgatory"—constantly collecting AI resources but rarely implementing them.What if the shortcut isn't cheating? What if it's actually the smart CEO move that you're avoiding? While you're saving that fifth tutorial to watch "later," someone else has already launched their product or tripled their output with AI doing the heavy lifting. That's the new reality.I'll share how my own business transformation began when I took a shortcut by investing in a Pinterest course years ago—a decision that collapsed my learning curve from years into weeks and became the foundation for everything I've built since.What you'll learn:Why "shortcutting" with AI is about collapsing timelines, not cutting cornersThe hidden costs of DIYing your way through AI (time, energy, missed opportunities)How to shift from "scrappy founder" to "smart CEO" mindsetWhat AI mastery in 2025 actually unlocks (building funnels in a weekend, tripling content output)Why the entrepreneurs who thrive this year won't be the ones who "kinda know" AIResources Mentioned:AI Unlocked Summit: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/ai-unlocked (May 27-29, 2025) Support the show

Once upon a time, I hosted a masterclass that had what I thought was a terrible conversion rate — until it wasn't. Not a single person bought on the call. But in the days that followed? EVERY person who attended wound up buying.In this episode, I'm breaking down the four-part framework I've used (and taught behind-the-scenes) to drive wildly high conversion rates — ethically, educationally, and without a bait-and-switch in sight. If you've ever felt allergic to bro marketing, or you want to sell on a masterclass but don't want it to feel manipulative or predatory… this one's for you.What's Inside This Episode:What I was taught that made my educator brain absolutely cringe and how most webinar frameworks get it completely backwardsMy secret weapon for not only teaching, but converting sales — using learning design to teach people to buy betterThe reason I refuse to teach anything I wouldn't use in my actual programThe one thing I HAVE changed about masterclasses to evolve with what works todayWhy I only attract people who already believe they're capableMy signature take on “consent-based selling” — and how I bake it in to every sales presentationHow you can steal this approach and build your own cash-converting masterclass

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, we're going deep into the funnel foundations that actually build sustainable businesses… And dismantling the flawed logic that's everywhere in online marketing right now. It all started with a question from my friend and longtime funnel architect Jake Leslie: Why are so many people skipping the core $97–$297 offer? Why do so many funnels go straight from free lead magnet to high-ticket sale, and then wonder why nothing converts? Jake's rant sparked one of my longest solo riffs ever… And it turned into a full-on masterclass in value ladders, offer sequencing, business longevity, and the difference between strategy and tactics. If you've ever wondered why your funnel isn't converting the way you want it to… This episode might save your business. Key Highlights: Why “free opt-in → high-ticket call” worked for a season (but won't anymore) The real reason 90% of online businesses flame out in 18 months or less What Dan Kennedy taught me about the evolution of advertising costs - and why it changes everything Why value ladders still matter more than ever (despite what modern marketers claim) How to keep your audience buying from you week after week with strategic offers What Napoleon Hill was teaching about customer acquisition back in 1917 (and why it still applies) The metrics behind our $100 front-end offer and how it ascends 5.5% of buyers into high-ticket coaching The actual difference between marketers who last 25 years… and those who peak for 25 months This is the kind of episode you'll want to re-listen to - especially if you're in that weird zone where people are clicking, leads are coming in, but nothing is converting. The problem isn't your funnel. The problem is your value ladder is broken… or missing entirely. Let's fix that. https://sellingonline.com/podcast https://clickfunnels.com/podcast https://30days.com https://clickfunnelsdropshipping.com Special thanks to our sponsors: NordVPN: EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal https://nordvpn.com/secrets Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!

It started with a few innocent dog scratches. My dog Daisy was itching like crazy, and I began to wonder: could it be her food? One Google search later, I found myself tumbling headfirst into a raw dog food rabbit hole—complete with Facebook ads, blog articles, YouTube videos, and a subscription box I could not refuse. In just seven days, I went from “hmm, maybe I'll try something new” to full-blown raw food DIYer with a freezer full of meat and a meal plan I created myself. And I didn't just buy dog food—I bought into an identity shift. I wanted to become the kind of person who makes her own dog food. In this episode, I walk you through that transformation—from unaware to superfan—and break down the stages of the sales funnel framework that brought me there.
