AI lets the sales team to know about the right time for a particular action. Yes, this is extremely important, as it helps in increasing the respond rate. It’s always better to take the action when it is required, or when the chances of receiving the response is high. On the basis of the engagement as recorded in the past, the AI model suggests the right time for the action, to the sales team. Not only this, the AI system can also come up with email response templates that can be used by the sales representatives.
Once the prospective customers are reached, it becomes very crucial to engage them, such that they get converted. To engage them well, you need all that is well defined and presented, so that your offerings can be evaluated right. The AI-guided applications such as case studies, comparison charts and more, based on the historical data, are recommended to the sales teams to engage the audience in a better way, that leads to increased success rate.
Setting up the pricing in a way that the prospective customer gets converted and even you are not at loss, requires smart analysis and expertise. The AI does that very well as it runs through all the previous data to understand the customer response to a particular price offering, and accordingly suggests the right pricing. So the sales team doesn’t have juggle up various price options to conclude the right one. This frees up the sales people from botheration pertaining to pricing, and therefore, speeds up the sales. The best part with right pricing is, that the time in negotiations is saved by a great deal.
