MELBOURNE, Australia, Dec. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As we move into 2025, the potential of AI is reshaping how sales teams operate, engage, and deliver value. Sales teams that fail to leverage AI risk being left behind – similar to the cloud and mobile technology transformations over the last decade.
Leigh Jasper, Co-CEO of Firmable
B2B sales productivity has always hinged on effective engagement, efficient processes, and timely decision-making, which AI sales tools are set to revolutionise. By capturing activity data and providing sales-focused playbooks, AI can optimise daily sales activities with new efficiencies.
The quality of this AI driven decision making is underpinned by the underlying quality of the data sets used, enabling sales teams to orchestrate the highest value tasks across their team's activities.
Gartner predicts that by 2026, 75% of B2B sales organisations will augment traditional playbooks with AI-guided selling solutions, making AI the primary system of action for sales. This isn't just about automation; it's about versatility – from multichannel engagement to workflow execution – all within a single interface. These tools can reduce time spent on tasks like prospecting and meeting preparation by over 50%, enabling teams to focus on building relationships and closing deals.
At Firmable, we see AI as the engine room of modern sales. Firmable deeply integrates Australia's highest quality external business data to deliver the most useful AI toolkit to lift sales team productivity. For 2025 we're building AI agents that not only automate tasks but also continuously learn and improve. Imagine AI generating and prioritising sales tasks based on real-time signals – updating CRM records, enriching account information, managing prospect outreach, and tracking outcomes.
Leveraging large language models (LLMs) and customer-specific data, these agents refine processes with every interaction, enhancing the quality and relevance of engagements over time. This isn't just layering AI on top; it's fundamentally rethinking how sales teams operate.
The evolution of AI also brings higher expectations from B2B customers. Sales teams must now deliver deeply personalised outreach and seamless user experiences. Efficiency isn't just about saving time; it's about creating meaningful connections and addressing customer needs more effectively. As AI drives process efficiency, sales professionals will need to balance automation with a human touch.
The message is clear: businesses that fail to adopt AI risk being left behind – not just in speed and scale but in their ability to meet evolving customer demands. AI isn't just a tool; it's a foundational layer transforming how we build products, engage markets, and drive growth.
At Firmable, we're committed to leading this transformation, deeply integrating the highest quality data into our AI agents, to ensure our customers have the tools they need to thrive in the AI era. As we look to 2025, AI will continue to redefine the B2B sales landscape and accelerate growth, for those ready to embrace its potential.
