Connor from OpenAI shares how revenue teams are leveraging generative AI to transform their sales processes and achieve meaningful business outcomes beyond the initial experimentation phase. He outlines a clear pattern among successful organizations: democratizing technology access, investing in AI education, and measuring impact through improved business metrics rather than just time savings.

• Three myths slow AI adoption: needing a massive project, assuming availability equals adoption, and waiting for AI to mature
• Deep research capabilities fundamentally change how sales teams prepare, turning hours of work into minutes
• Sales leaders create personalized "user guides" for team members to help AI tailor coaching approaches
• Projects and custom GPTs serve as "homes" for deal information, enabling better handoffs and customer experiences
• Successful executives sponsor AI initiatives, demonstrate personal usage, and recognize AI champions
• Most powerful implementations progress from individual impact to team impact to organizational transformation
• Future of AI includes "agentic orchestration" where AI becomes the always-on assistant for all work activities
• Frontline sellers will need increased technical aptitude as AI becomes more integrated into sales processes

Start using AI today rather than waiting for perfect understanding—dedicate time to learn this technology as it represents the future of sales. Try one use case at a time and share what you're learning with your team.

Your champion just went silent. That $100K deal you've been forecasting is officially dead, killed by someone in a completely different department you never knew existed.

In this episode of AI-Powered Seller, Jake Dunlap reveals how to use AI for sales stakeholder mapping to identify the TRUE power dynamics in any organization before your deal gets derailed by internal politics.

Most B2B sellers focus on organizational hierarchy when they should be mapping the "powerarchy", the real influence networks that determine whether enterprise deals live or die. Jake demonstrates his exact AI sales prompt that identifies ghost stakeholders, maps informal approval processes, and gives you tactical strategies to navigate complex organizational politics in B2B sales.

This sales AI episode covers:

• Why traditional B2B stakeholder mapping fails in today's complex buying environment
• The difference between your sales champion and THE decision maker (and why it matters for deal closing)
• How to identify the "shadow CIO" and other hidden decision makers using AI
• Jake's complete AI framework for political deal analysis and sales strategy
• Specific discovery questions to ask different stakeholders based on their motivations
• Warning signs your enterprise deal is about to be torpedoed by internal dynamics

Using a live demonstration with ChatGPT for sales, Jake walks through analyzing a fictional deal scenario, watch how AI identifies informal power structures, predicts potential deal blockers, and provides actionable next steps to win the political game in enterprise sales.

Every enterprise sales rep and mid-market seller needs to be running this AI sales process on every deal.
