- 2027 Online Sales and Marketing Summit - September 30-October 1 - It will be in San Antonio, Texas. Sign up for the VIP list!
TITO Shoutout
- Tera Boyd, Epcon Communities - A little birdie told me she's already implementing some AI strategies she learned at the Summit.
Key Takeaways
- Summit Highlights: The speed dating session was a standout! Nine topics (prospecting, phone, video, and more) were covered by partners, OSCs, and coaches. Lena and Jennifer both wanted more time at each table.
- Authentic Over Perfection: Lena loved Cassy Williamson’s Unapologetic session, which she said gave her permission to be less perfect. She also valued the balance of tech tools and mindset.
- AI as a Tool, Humans as the Luxury: The theme was “unmistakably human.” Customers are begging for a real person, so use AI to automate cumbersome tasks and free up time so you can be fully present on calls.
