How does AI-driven predictive analytics assist in forecasting sales outcomes and trends?
Forecasting deals can be a tremendous challenge. Generic tools aren't especially helpful at predicting which deals will close and which won't because they tend to rely on standard information that isn't tuned to the reality of your business. SetSail instead looks at the actual activities that sellers have undertaken. It assesses communications and with whom they took place by personae. The result is a deeper understanding about what actions truly influence whether a deal will close or not. Your forecasts are more accurate -- and you can focus resources on risky deals.

How can AI-powered sales automation tools handle repetitive tasks, allowing sales teams to focus on strategic activities?
AI can help sellers eliminate mundane and repetitive tasks. Consider a day in the life of a seller. They might start their day looking to plan their strategies for their pipeline deals. AI can identify which deals are at risk, which have momentum, and more. That allows the seller to prioritize which deals to focus on. Next, they might be walking into a prospect call. The deal is complex, so the seller is struggling to remember the next steps. Without AI-driven meeting prep, they get summaries of all of their past emails and calls. There's no need to work through dozens of call transcripts. Instead, the information is digested for them. Then, they might get a question from their sales leader about the current status of a deal. Rather than a complex MEDDICC analysis, they can use AI to comb through all of their communications to predict the likelihood of closing and make recommendations on what steps to take next.

SetSail AI captures and analyzes data from across your go to market stack and various teams. It then mines this data for insights into your buyer and associated deals. Armed with this intelligence, your sales operations team can quickly discover which deals are most likely to close, what are the major milestones, signals, and metrics associated with winning deals and more. That allows your team to evaluate your ideal customer and build intelligent lists of target accounts.

It can provide rich intelligence about the challenges and needs of your prospect, including providing a MEDDICC analysis of your deal. That kind of context enables your sellers to assess and choose which tools will be most effective to use with your prospects.
