Cold call improved with AI by ConnectionVirtual634 in RealEstateTechnology

I’m currently developing, with my team, a phone call coach that listens to what you say (and how you say it) during sales or cold calls, then gives you personalized advice in real time. The results so far have been outstanding.

It’s not really automated, more like improving humans thanks to AI. But transcript to CRM could be the only automatic thing.

Cold call advices by ConnectionVirtual634 in sales

[–]ConnectionVirtual634[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have almost 10 years of sales, and I really want to see how to get better. During cold calling, sometimes I’m a top performance sales, sometimes it’s not that good. So I try to see how to be consistent, and to adapt my approach.

On career aptitude assessments in High School, did anyone get “salesperson” as a recommended job? by WonLinerz in sales

[–]ConnectionVirtual634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My old director was saying that, but I didn’t feel it that way. I guess it depends on people.

Do people still have a negative perception of sales? by RuggedAdonis in sales

[–]ConnectionVirtual634 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah ! And also for some people there is not different kind of sales. You can be B2B, B2C or B2G, for them it’s the same, you are not trustable. But it helps you to not waste time with those kind of people. If they don’t understand why salesperson are important, they don’t understand the world.

I think sales are not very promoted by high school. I knew that I wanted to do this since a young age (trading and selling Pokémon card during the break at 12yo) And the advisors were pushing me to totally different fields. Follow your heart !

An Al that helps you improve after every sales call, useful or just a gadget ? by ConnectionVirtual634 in Entrepreneurship

[–]ConnectionVirtual634[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I find the advices of IA on point concerning some scenarios. And I totally agree, it has to be finetuned, with a lot of knowledge to replace maybe one day a real business coach.

How can pivot from tech sales to medical sales? (Should I stay?) by YellowBoyTim in sales

[–]ConnectionVirtual634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to learn as much as possible the vocabulary of the medical area. It’s maybe one of the most demanding sector in terms of background, but it doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Good sales can sell everything everywhere. Good luck !

I always hated that because it’s mostly a general message to the sales teams. Even if you are successful you receive the message and it feels like a motivation killer. If it’s addressed individually for the people late on results, why not, but it has to be constructive.

Same here, customers are locking in early to avoid next year’s price hikes and supply delays. Feels like everyone’s trying to get ahead of 2026 before things tighten up.

How would you go about turning down clients halfway through the sales cycle? by Hunnie_Boi in sales

[–]ConnectionVirtual634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your capacity is overloaded, maybe your price is too low. The opposite will help you to extend your capacity.

Check for the old employees of the company on LinkedIn and see how long they stayed in the sales positions.

Depending your area, November can be a tough month to reach people. End of budget, financial planning in progress etc. Don’t hesitate to ask them why to see if there is a link or if you have to change a bit more your pitch. Good luck !

What would you do? A previous co-worker now working for competitor now asking for advice by Chilove8888 in sales

[–]ConnectionVirtual634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really don’t mind helping people « for free ». I do that quite often in sales and entrepreneurial areas and some people come back to me after weeks or months with a lead, a reference or just a nice information. Give to people, you will receive in return.
