Harnessing AI for Sales Training - New Approach
AI is changing everything — and for many people, it feels like it’s taking more than it’s giving.
We’ve all seen the headlines: thousands of layoffs as companies rush to automate. But maybe we’re using it the wrong way.
Instead of replacing people, AI could help us get better at what only humans can do — connect, communicate, and sell with empathy.
Different Way to Look at AI
When I built my own AI Sales Trainer using ElevenLabs, it wasn’t about saving time or cutting headcount.
It was about helping real people, like new reps on my team, get the practice they need to feel confident.
Most employees don’t get enough reps before they’re thrown into real conversations.
AI can change that. It can simulate buyers, provide feedback, and help people find their rhythm — without the pressure or judgment.
Why It Matters Now
After seeing so many talented people lose jobs to automation, I wanted to build something that does the opposite — something that helps people keep their jobs by getting better at them.
AI shouldn’t be used to replace the human voice.
It should be used to strengthen it.
When used the right way, AI can help a sales or clinical team talk with more clarity, confidence, and care — not less.
The Takeaway
The future isn’t about AI vs. humans.
It’s about how the two work together.
Let’s stop hustling backward trying to replace people.
Let’s start using AI to train people to show up stronger.
