The Accelerating Growth Formula: AI in Marketing, Sales, and Service
At INBOUND, the biggest buzzword in recent years has been AI. From promises of economic revolution to fears of humanity’s demise, the narrative around AI has been constantly evolving. But amidst the hype, one question remains central: how do we drive growth in today’s challenging landscape?
3 Reasons Why the Growth Formula Is Broken
The traditional growth formula of More Traffic * Higher Conversion * Better Retention = Higher Growth is faltering. Across the board, metrics are down, making it harder for businesses to meet their quotas. So, what’s causing this downturn?
Three major trends stand out:
- Search engines are changing, reducing website traffic.
- Social platforms are retaining customers longer, decreasing visitors.
- Customers are seeking personal connections over brands, raising the bar for sales and service teams.
Two Paths for AI to Drive Growth: Acceleration and Transformation
AI offers two key opportunities for businesses: Acceleration and Transformation. Currently, AI is being used to speed up existing processes in marketing, sales, and service. Soon, it will enable transformation by tackling previously impossible tasks.
How AI Is Accelerating and Transforming Marketing
Marketers are already leveraging AI to create, personalize, and distribute content more efficiently. By utilizing AI-powered tools, businesses can increase conversion rates significantly. And as AI evolves, marketers will be able to transform their strategies completely, with agents handling multiple tasks seamlessly.
How AI Is Accelerating and Transforming Sales
Sales teams are benefiting from AI by saving time on research, messaging, and follow-ups. AI-powered prospecting agents will revolutionize lead generation, making outreach simpler and more effective.
How AI Is Accelerating and Transforming Service
Customer service is being transformed by AI as well, with improvements in answering queries, self-service options, and real-time analysis of customer sentiment. Support agents empowered by AI can handle complex issues round the clock, enhancing overall service quality.
How AI and Humans Can Work Together To Drive Growth
The key to sustainable growth lies in the collaboration between AI and humans. AI complements human capabilities by streamlining tasks and providing valuable insights. By co-creating with AI, businesses can enhance the customer experience and drive growth effectively.
