For most of us, it’s a pipe dream. For Adam Honig, Founder and CEO of Spiro, it has become a business that he believes can slay Salesforce. It all started one Saturday night in 2013 when Honig went to see the near-future Spike Jonze movie Her, which stars an uncredited Scarlett Johansson as the voice of an AI that takes over Joaquin Phoenix's life as he falls in love with her. Six years and $5 million (and counting) later they have realized that vision with Spiro, an artificial intelligence CRM that removes most of the administrative data entry from salespeople’s lives and analyzes what their most profitable path is. Spiro cuts through that by handling it all and creating the datastream. Spiro handles the email, the texting, and even the phoning. Then it uses power natural language processing and machine learning to suggest the next most profitable actions. Honig has create special page for B2B Revenue Executive listeners: https://spiro.ai/b2brev/ “We publish a lot of content. We have about 700 blogs about sales and we’ve compiled them into The 44 Best Sales Tips Ever,” says Honig. “They are very tactical things that you can do when prospecting or working with customers to be more effective.

Episode 85: Using Core Competencies Instead of Personality Tests to Find the A Players w/ JB Bush & Liz Roche
You can’t choose your sales team like you choose dinner. “Smells good, looks great on the menu...” “Wait, that’s what I ordered?” So many leaders hire based on non-quantifiable measurements. They use personality tests or behavior assessments, or worst of all gut feeling. When that person leaves 9-12 months later, it’s painful and expensive. I sat down with experts Liz Roche and JB Bush, who are both managing partners at VSA, and in this episode, they share their expertise on the importance and the how-to of quantifiable sales-person assessment.Subscribe to the podcast or write a review YouTubeSpotifyApple PodcastStitcherTuneInPrevious guests include: Eric Shaver, Managing Partner at Kensei Partners, Harry Spaight, Founder of the Selling with Dignity, Jeroen Corthout, Co-Founder at SalesfareCheck out our three most downloaded episodes:Episode 189: 5 Things CRM Software Should Help You Do w/ Jeroen CorthoutEpisode 299: How to Break the Used Car Salesperson Stereotype with Harry SpaightEpisode 301: From Tech Sales to Business Conversation with Eric ShaverReady to Join the Conversation?
