Your reps can’t be in 100 places at once. Jeeva can. Just launched: https://t.co/0VKDnwvcye — your AI-powered sales agent that finds & enrich leads, writes emails, handles objections & books meetings — while you sleep. Here’s what it looks like in action 🧵👇

1,247 leads. 5 SDRs. 14-day response time. We were drowning. We gave AI agents access to CRM + LinkedIn + email. Prompt: “Rank leads by intent. Draft personalized outreach.” Result: 41% reply rate. $1.2M closed in 90 days. SDRs stopped triaging → only closing. Same

Lost $180K running pure AI sales. Added ONE human. Closed $2.1M. Pure AI close rate: 3% Hybrid close rate: 27% Why? AI follows logic. Humans create urgency. The winning model: 1. Gravity Score Ask: blockers, decision process, readiness. Score the deal → feed to AI. 2.

I asked our AI to find something about me no one else would know… and it pulled a pivot story from an 8-month-old interview. It turned that into: “Pivoting Jeeva from a $2M churn risk to a sales co-pilot in 7 months shows rare hands-on leadership.” A human = 30 min. Our AI =

B2B SaaS founders are becoming creators - not as a side hustle, but as a growth strategy. Old playbook: Ads, cold outreach, SEO. New playbook: Build audience → Share insights → Customers come to you. Sahil (Gumroad), Pieter Levels, Sriram… all grew products through content,

For years it was “PLG vs Sales-led.” Self-serve or high-touch. Pick one. Turns out that was wrong. The best SaaS companies run both motions. PLG gets you in the door fast. Sales takes you upmarket. @SlackHQ, @NotionHQ, @figma... all start with free/self-serve, then bring in

“The best time to start building your email list is before you have a product.” I learned this the hard way. Early builders who win share their journey from day one: progress, questions, lessons. Their audience shapes the product. By launch, 1,000+ people are already waiting.

I’ve read @stripe's API docs 4 times this year... Not for integrations, but because they’re a masterclass in product thinking. Most docs show features. Stripe shows intent: Here’s what you’re trying to do. Here’s the simplest way. Here’s why it works. We applied this to

Close rate jumped from 11% → 34% by changing ONE question. Old: “Tell me about your company.” New: “What’s working well in your sales process right now?” Starting positive opens people up. They share wins → then reveal bottlenecks. You get the truth without pushing. Try

Real talk for founders. It's Sunday night. You're thinking about work tomorrow. I've been all four in the same month. How do you actually feel?

Fast deals: Customer needs it today Slow deals: Customer is exploring I started asking: "What happens if you don't solve this in 30 days?" No clear answer = not urgent = not closing soon. Now we qualify on urgency, not just fit. Deal cycle: 60 days → 35 days. Find urgency.

I've watched hundreds of sales demos. The best ones don't start with the product. They start with the problem. "You waste 10 hours/week on CRM? Watch it become zero." One problem. One solution. 15 minutes. Close rate: 40% higher. Stop touring features. Start solving pain.

Sales director lost her VP of Sales. "This usually kills us for 6 months." This time? Team didn't skip a beat. Why? AI captured every conversation, objection, and pattern he learned over 4 years. When he left, his playbook stayed. Knowledge doesn't have to walk out the door

We fed 500 "dead" CRM deals into AI. Found $2.3M hiding in the graveyard. 160 deals weren't dead. Just forgotten. Rep gave up too early. Contact changed jobs. Timing was off. AI re-engaged with context. 6 closed in 30 days. Your pipeline isn't starved. It's leaky.

I watched our customer's "average" sales rep beat their former top performer. Not because they got better at sales. Because AI gave them 4.5 extra hours of selling time per day. The bottleneck was never talent. It was time. And we just solved it.

Sales reps aren't lazy. Your tools are making them do computer work. One sales director told me: "My best rep closed $400K last quarter. Only 18% of her time was spent talking to prospects." The rest? CRM updates. Research. Data entry. We turned salespeople into

The next decade will compress 100 years of change into 10. AGI by 2027. 99% of jobs automated by 2030. Post-work economy by 2035. I just published a report on what comes next, and what remains human. Comment “Future” and I’ll DM the link to you.

We sent $0.02 via PayPal to 250 strangers with the message: "Here's our 2 cents on sales. Give us yours?" 50 booked meetings. 20 became customers. 50 called us idiots. Marc Benioff invested $9M. Not because of the ROI. Because being weird and human beats AI-generated

I used to cringe at 2 AM listening to my sales calls. "Why didn't I ask about budget?" "I missed that buying signal." So we built Jeeva, an AI that coaches you DURING calls, not after. 50K+ calls analyzed. Close rates up 70%. Marc Benioff invested $9M. You don't need to be
