Can her AI software forecast your next deal?

IN THIS EPISODE: In this episode our host, Denise Silber, is joined by Harvard Law School alumna Heidi Messer, a serial entrepreneur who successively co-founded Linkshare and Collective [i]™, and made successes of them despite the critics who said it could not be done. Together they discuss the benefit of using AI-powered software to significantly reduce the time that sales people devote to data entry and forecasting and not actually selling. By re-allocating this valuable 70% of work-time previously spent on data entry and forecasting, Heidi's technology allows businesses and sales people to focus on revenue generation and automate tedious tasks. Tune in to hear why AI isn't going to take people's jobs… but companies who work with AI will replace those who don't.
