Chat GPT is an AI model that has been trained on vast amounts of internet content and can respond to questions on any topic. The latest version, ChatGPT-4, works by using 16 different “experts” to provide specific and accurate responses.
Sales professionals can leverage the power of Chat GPT to overcome customer objections, address specific concerns, and provide personalized sales pitches.
We explore how this AI model can enhance the sales process and improve customer interactions in this episode of Sales Reinvented.

Key features and capabilities
Chat GPT possesses a deep understanding of human psychology and customer preferences, making it a valuable tool for sales professionals. What makes people like products? Why do they dislike products? It has access to every customer review available online before Sep. 2019.
It can assist in lead generation by recommending communities and platforms to target. Additionally, it can automate the warm-up process in sales, allowing salespeople to engage with potential customers more effectively. It allows you to scale what you’re doing in your sales prospecting.
One of the limitations of ChatGPT is the potential for inaccurate responses due to what is known as “AI hallucination.” I.e., it can make up things to provide you with an answer. Sales professionals should fact-check responses and ensure the information presented is reliable.
And if you’re serious about using AI, upgrade to ChatGPT Pro. You’ll get a magnitude of better results versus the free 3.5 version.
Personalization and customization with ChatGPT’s new feature
Adapting Chat GPT to a salesperson’s unique style requires customization and personalization, which can now be achieved through a newly introduced feature. You can feed ChatGPT details about yourself, your tone, your selling style, what you’re trying to accomplish, and more, and it can file the information about you. It takes who you are into context every time it responds and yields a personalized result. It’s an upgrade that every salesperson should leverage.
Using ChatGPT to automate the warm-up process in sales
One powerful use case of ChatGPT is automating the warm-up process in sales. One of Jaeden’s friends was able to create a workflow where potential customers are texted by an AI chatbot to start a conversation. It would ask them a few questions and then transfer the call to the salesperson, who now had background and context for the conversation.
This approach helped him scale conversations and weed out less interested individuals, leading to increased sales. It shows that sales professionals can identify more interested prospects and focus their efforts accordingly by leveraging AI.
In the age of AI, sales professionals must embrace and experiment with AI tools to become more productive and achieve higher sales results. AI tools like Chat GPT can provide a significant advantage, allowing sales professionals to reach more clients, improve prospecting, and engage with customers in a personalized manner.
