Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the way sales teams and marketers conduct their daily functions. However, despite all the current and projected advances (and benefits) surrounding AI in these departments, there are still far too many myths and fears that exist.
With all the recent advances when it comes to artificial intelligence, one common fear is that AI will replace the need for certain types of roles within the typical marketing or sales department. Industry leaders however often dispel this fear by stating that AI is at a stage where humans need to train themselves on how to use the technology to drive their goals and impact, without fearing about it taking their jobs.
This is where the right kind of training needs to be provisioned within organizations, to allow marketing and sales teams to have access to the right information surrounding the impact of AI to their role. AI can enable a marketer’s and sales person’s efforts by vastly reducing the time spent on certain repetitive tasks, by helping them sift through large quantities of customer data more easily, by sharing timely suggestions when it comes to who to reach out to when and with what type of messaging: these are just some of the basic examples of what AI can do to enable a marketing and salesperson as of today.
