CRAIG'S TIP: "We've got to get people thinking about their job as literally a partner revenue architect who's responsible for leveraging data and AI to help generate better revenue for their partners downstream." MARC'S TIP: "Once you actually get in the trenches, no plan survives five minutes with the enemy. It's about being able to take the initial plan, make adjustments, and rinse and repeat what's working and what's not working over time."

I hope you're doing one of those, because otherwise, people just aren't taking on new burden and new friction right now."

TOM'S TIP: "Do you know why people say it's a numbers game? Because they do not know what the best practices of sales are. The science tells us what the best performance direction is."

TOM'S TIP: "The key is creating that value prior to the sale. The current demand from customers across B2B and B2G is, 'Help me make a better decision. Help me understand my own world better through your sales process, and I will award you my business.'"

ZEEV'S TIP: "AI doesn't fix bad sales processes, it exposes them. If you accelerate a broken workflow, you're not improving performance; you're simply making mistakes happen faster. 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."

ZEEV'S TIP: "Sales and marketing are a circle. The problem most companies have is that sales and marketing are treated as two separate parts that do not work for one another and do not collaborate. AI can help fix that." TOM'S TIP: "This is the peace treaty of all time. Both objectives, marketing and sales, can be served, and everybody can get what they want. Instead of arguing about leads, both teams can align around understanding what prospects need to fix, accomplish, or avoid."

The more you use it, the more it learns." TOM'S TIP: "Do not prioritize pursuing the companies or potential clients you most want. 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."

Now, with AI, you can create what is essentially a full-time, never-sleeping, always-ready, always-helping coach."

CRAIG'S TIP: "The job of the partner program is not recruiting and onboarding partners. The job of the partner program is to produce active sellers that are creating engagement and producing revenue on the back end."

The standard should not be that someone answered the phone for the BDR, agreed to see a demo, and then did not show up."

LISA'S TIP: "Volunteer for the presentation you don't feel ready for, raise your hand before you feel 100% prepared. I think that's the best way to not only gain that confidence, but get the visibility to just have your career take off."

TOM'S TIP: "If we can get salespeople to uncover very early on what's changed that has the buyer interested in considering a new solution, and understand who all should be involved in the conversation, now we begin to get a resource that tells us whether it's a qualified opportunity or not."

You have to show how it fits the customer's mission, their people, and their process. That's what builds instant credibility."
