What's Ahead
A sales person at an organization I work with disagreed with me.
I’ve put sales pipelines in place so we can monitor the customer journey.
Lead > Meeting Scheduled > Follow up > Closed Won.
etc etc.
He felt very strongly that he didn’t need to move lead into the “follow up” category.
I was surprised, because I find that a follow up process is important!
When we couldn’t come to agreement, I went to ChatGPT and shared my screen.
This is what we got back.
Don’t underestimate the value of a neutral 3rd party.
Using ChatGPT as an entity to clarify confusion, research, or help come to agreements is very powerful.
This simple step allowed us to come to an agreement and move forward!
Try this week and watch the magic.
