Manage episode 491990365 series 3655621
Listen in as host Arjun Pillai, Cofounder & CEO of Docket, sits down with Hannah Ajikawo, GTM consultant and founder of Revenue Funnel. They unpack how most organizations are still built around sales processes instead of buyer experiences, why AI is creating both urgency and opportunity for CROs, and how leaders should rethink pipeline, conversions, and executing with lean teams.
Hannah shares frameworks on optimizing the entire funnel, common mistakes in revenue orgs, and the value of running consistent audits to spot overlooked growth wins. They also explore what AI tools she sees as "non-negotiable" today, from conversation intelligence to content repurposing and agents that draft follow-ups.
