Episode 85: Reactive vs. Proactive A.I use on Social w/Melissa Langdale

In this episode of the Coffee & Questions podcast, we dive into the real role AI should be playing in today’s sales and social prospecting landscape. In this episode I get to sit down with Melissa Langdale, a woman I have long admired in the mortgage space as being a woman of movement who truly gets her audience, gets it done, and it was an honor to have her on!Instead of viewing AI as a replacement for human effort, we break down how it should function as a tool—especially for research, content ideation, and even practicing sales conversations—while drawing a hard line at using it for outbound prospecting, where automation can quickly erode trust.We explore why authentic connection is still the ultimate differentiator in a noisy, increasingly automated world. Personal outreach, real conversations, and genuine follow-through are what build long-term trust—and they’re exactly what AI can’t replicate. The episode also highlights the importance of training your AI tools the same way you would a human assistant: feeding it your voice, your data, and your context to get output that moves the needle.Connect with MelissaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissa-langdale/Website: https://www.praxislendingsolutions.com/ Connect with Michelle:Website: https://bermanmediapd.com/Instagram @BermanMediaSocialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTgG-BvwWOQ_jEYDZ-gKVxQ Need a Dynamic Speaker for an Event or Group?
