What does the sales force of the future look like? Should we even have a sales force?
Before the pandemic, customers were beginning to question the value of salespeople. With organisation less able and comfortable to receive visitors generally, how should we redesign sales forces in the future? What do customers really value?
We will explore hybrid structures that are already evolving and how technology is redefining sales and marketing. We will review some of the exciting ways humans and AI are interacting in sales. We will look at how understanding your unique sales process can guide decisions about the most effective model for your organisation.
This interactive webinar will give you practical tools and approaches to help you re-think your own sales approach.
