216: Thoughts on AI, Tamar Gill, eCore

Tamar is the founder of eCore Services, a company she's bootstrapped and is celebrating six years in business with a team of 150 remote workers around the world. I've gotten to know Tamar this year, as she sponsored the #Salesdecadesproject as well as generously sponoring other women in sales and in business organizations.  We talked about:  Tamar shares her path from nonprofit work to becoming a stay-at-home mom, then rising from an entry-level remote role to an executive team before starting eCore to address costly bad data and to create opportunities for stay-at-home parents. She explains eCore's AI-plus-human model: AI finds patterns and flags issues at speed and scale, while a research team validates and applies judgment within an 80+ step validation and enrichment process, maintaining a people-first team of 150. They discuss how AI amplifies poor data, why trusted data requires ongoing validation, how overbuying cheap records pollutes CRMs, the need for training and change management, women's growing presence in AI communities, and how to learn via free resources, communities, and conferences. Tamar can be reached on LinkedIn and at eCoreservice.com.   00:00 Meet Tamar Gil 01:16 Why Data Matters 02:17 From Nonprofit to Founder 04:24 Choosing the Data Mission 05:14 AI Plus People 07:19 Inside eCore Workflow 08:56 Bad Data Breaks AI 11:00 Building Trusted Data 12:47 Women in AI 20:25 Learning AI Skills 24:09 Change Management 25:38 Wrap Up and Contact Follow Tamar Gill: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamargill/  More about Women Sales Pros - we have a website, we are on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.  Subscribe to our 2x a month news, and share the podcast with others!
