Behind the scenes of an industry stuck in time

Our research shows: inside sales teams spend up to 70% of their time on tasks that have nothing to do with actual selling. But the problem runs deeper. Companies continue to cling to outdated processes and working conditions that feel like they belong to another era.

They should be selling, talking to customers, building relationships. Instead, teams spend their days on manual, repetitive tasks. How is it possible that so many people still work under such conditions today?

There is a way out – but it’s being blocked

Some whisper about an AI agent that could take over all these tasks. A system that can think, decide, and act on its own... giving people back the time for what really matters.
