Podcast – Helping salespeople get smarter with digital assistants and technology

Amacus

Today’s podcast is with sales technology thought leader John Cousineau who is President of Innovative Information the creators of Amacus.  John and I have had a number of coffee chats and debates around why and how to use technology and social media to improve sales performance and customer experience. The nexus of sales and social media seems to be happening in the CRM and Social CRM space.  The question is it happening fast enough and making things more efficient or is it just giving sales people more buttons and buzzwords to worry about.

    Shane,

    Interesting podcast.

    I definitely believe in your philosophy of technology for technology/features sakes is useless–even distracting. In fact, we just had that exact discussion on the Kaleidico blog.

    I also believe in the merging of social media monitoring and social CRM very quickly.

    Great work. I always enjoy it.

    Technology is so powerful you can't avoid using it. We have recently hired others to help us with some of it. Nothing like elance.com to find the resources you need to eliminate your excuses.
