The product demo is an important part of any sales process, but they can also be a tricky stage to navigate while maintaining a value selling approach. We often advocate for sellers to move away from the 'features and functions' conversation in favor of discussing business problems and solutions. The demo is a time to discuss both. That can be a difficult balance to strike, especially when selling complex technical solutions.

For SaaS companies relying on traditional sales strategies to grow revenue, these trends will only become worse, as they now falter in the face of modern purchasing paradigms.

There’s a certain comic arrogance in the discussion, “Will AI Replace (or Augment) Sellers?” As usual, it’s the self centered focus too many have about selling. Somehow, we never take time to think about whether AI will replace buyers.
