Get up in the morning on a mission to save prospective clients from the shabby, ill-fitting, overpriced and worthless alternatives that those charlatans - who are your competition - are trying to get away with flogging them.

Speaking as a former salesperson who just experienced this from a current salesperson: If you can’t convince your potential client to buy your Thing™, even if you spent a lot of time and are on commission and they seemed like they were going to buy your Thing™, ending your sales pitch with some variation of, “Well I hope you enjoy (negative consequence of not buying my Thing™)” as a parting shot doesn’t win you any points. You’re actually convincing the person they made the right decision refusing, because nobody trusts a salesperson who is ungracious and rude when they don’t get their way.

How Does Social Selling Work Across Various Platforms?

Considering the multifarious approaches to social selling—as people use diverse platforms in varying ways—it is essential that your methods are adjustable and tailored to the particular platform you’re utilizing and the prospect.

To this end, here’s some valuable advice on executing social sales successfully across various major networks.

1. LinkedIn Sales Navigator

LinkedIn is the leading B2B social selling platform, with half of all buyers using it as a resource to determine what they will buy. In other words, if you don’t have much time or energy to dedicate to your social selling campaign, this should be your go-to outlet. Remember these guidelines while using LinkedIn to make the right impression on potential buyers and customers.

2. Twitter

After LinkedIn, Twitter is another powerful social selling tool for B2B salespeople. Specifically, the platform’s Lists feature enables you to pay attention to content from specific accounts or groups.

3. Other Platforms

Undoubtedly, there are many other social media networks to browse, including Facebook, which has almost ten times as many users as LinkedIn. Still, typically, sites such as Facebook, Instagram, and Reddit aren’t the best choices for sales-related activities. On these platforms, most users refrain from engaging with business issues, as they’re intended for discussing social issues and connecting with friends and family.

WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 10 OF 12 Friday, March 24, 2023

"Black females, for the most part, know by the time they are ten years old that the world is not much concerned with the quality of their lives or even their lives at all. When politicians and salespeople start being kind to black women, seeking them out, offering them largesse, the women accept the soft voices, the simpering statements, the often idle promises, because those are likely to be the only flattering behavior directed to them that day. Behind the women's eyes, however, there is a wisdom that does not pretend to be unaware; nor does it permit gullibility." - Maya Angelou, A Song Flung Up To Heaven

One of the major problems with salesbros is that they think “always be closing” is a mantra to live by because they didn’t understand the point of Glengarry Glen Ross, which is that salespeople are nightmares. That’s why there’s always some silly pop-up chat at the bottom of every website now. No, Pamela — if that is your real name — I don’t want live assistance booking my yoga class. You are hogging valuable screen real estate. This is some real tragedy of the commons shit. The web is becoming a miserable experience because some salesbro who is trying to meet his KPIs is doing stuff to marginally increase the number of paying customers. (And you know, the hell with the rest of us!) The more each site tries to create its own little walled garden, the less valuable the open web becomes.

My insurance covers lenses, exams and $130 worth of frames. This lady at the eye doctor tried to charge me for full everything I should have only payed $15 for blue light protection. Unfortunately not the first time this store has done this. Thankfully my mother was there since I wanted her input on frames. (Also forgot my wallet so she covered my bill) and she called them out for it. First the lady said my bill would be $340, and when mom said that wasn't right, the saleswoman then said it was $498. Mom sent her to her manager and we only paid $69 dollars and they still charged me for things I didn't buy.

Upselling is garbage. It's capitalistic prostitution. But upselling to poor people is just fucking cruel. "Hey, let me remind you that you came in here with limited funds by offering you a product that you definitely didn't plan to buy, can't afford, which even if you bought i wouldn't personally gain from, and you'll feel guilty that you're so poor no matter what as an end result." No joke the store i just got out of she made a joke how she was trying to take my every last penny. I was thinking in which world is that funny to poor people?! Kind of like insurance people, I don't like sales people usually either. Especially if they're commission based. Oh my God you get the worst people then. You can't believe a single fucking word they say.

Will AI Replace Salespeople?

Yes, AI will replace salespeople, but it won't be a complete replacement.

The extent of replacement will vary based on the specific needs of the business and the volume of tasks assigned to salespeople.

In order to give you more information, let's go deeper.

AI Replace Salespeople?:

1. AI has the potential to revolutionize the sales industry and replace traditional salespeople in many aspects.

With advancements in technology and machine learning, AI-powered sales tools are becoming increasingly sophisticated and capable of performing tasks that were once exclusive to salespeople.

2. One of the main advantages of AI in sales is its ability to analyze vast amounts of data quickly and almost accurately.

AI algorithms can process customer information, purchase history, online behavior, and other data to identify patterns and predict buying preferences.

This enables businesses to personalize their sales strategies and deliver targeted offers that are more likely to convert.

Do you know? - "AI technologies use dynamic pricing models to help predict customer behavior, supply, and demand to alert salespeople when to increase or decrease the price of a product or service" – HubSpot

3. Moreover, AI-powered chatbots have already emerged as valuable tools for customer interactions.

These chatbots can engage with customers in real time, answering their queries, providing product recommendations, and even completing transactions.

By automating these tasks, businesses can provide instant support to customers round the clock, leading to improved customer satisfaction and increased sales.

“Customers today want access to more information before they make contact with vendors and sales teams. And more than half (53%) of B2B buyers would prefer to buy without any interaction with salespeople at all” – MarketingProfs

4. AI can also streamline the lead generation process.

Machine learning algorithms can analyze customer data and identify potential leads with a high probability of conversion.

This allows sales teams to focus their efforts on qualified leads, saving time and resources.

5. However, it's important to note that while AI can enhance and automate certain aspects of the sales process, it cannot 'completely replace' human salespeople.

Sales is a relationship-driven field, and human interaction plays a crucial role in building trust and rapport with customers.

“85% of salespeople using AI say it makes their prospecting efforts more effective, allows them to spend more time selling (79%), and helps build rapport faster (72%)” – HubSpot’s The State of AI Survey 2023

AI may be able to generate leads and provide personalized recommendations, but it still lacks the emotional intelligence and empathy that salespeople bring to the table.

6. To reach a substantial conclusion regarding the extent of salespeople replacement, we should wait a period of at least 2-3 years from now, which will provide clarity.

Pro-Tip: Salespeople facing AI's impact have to prioritize ongoing learning and adaptability. Time to embrace new skills and stay relevant in the evolving job market.

In conclusion, yes, AI will replace salespeople and reshape the sales industry by automating tasks, improving efficiency, and enhancing customer experiences.

While it may replace certain aspects of the sales process, human salespeople will still continue to play a vital role in building relationships and closing deals.

The future of sales will likely involve a combination of AI technologies and skilled sales professionals working together to achieve success.
