Part 2: Building Autonomous Businesses with AI Agents (Jonathan Moss Interview)Podcast Description Jonathan Moss welcomes Amos Bar Joseph, co-founder and CEO of Swan AI (getswan.ai), for a strategic discussion on the autonomous business model that's challenging Silicon Valley's traditional playbook. Having built and sold multiple startups, Amos explains why he's now focused on reaching $30M ARR with just three founders using AI agents. This episode covers the philosophical framework behind autonomous businesses, detailed breakdowns of Swan's agentic technology, and exclusive announcements about new tools that democratize access to AI-powered go-to-market strategies. 99% of companies fail chasing funding rounds Focus shifts from value creation to "valuation inflation" Building for investors rather than customers "These types of companies, they don't pursue value creation, but what they are actually focused is valuation inflation." "It's not the fault of the founders I've been there myself. It's just that it's kinda like the natural tendency of building for the next round all the time."

After burning out on the traditional "unicorn playbook" through two successful exits, Amos shares his revolutionary approach to scaling with intelligence instead of headcount. This episode features a deep dive into Swan's actual AI agent ecosystem, controversial takes on popular GTM tools, and a practical framework for implementing AI in any business. Companies focus on "valuation inflation" over value creation The VC route makes founders forget customers and employees Building on "sick foundations" by scaling before product-market fit "I'm sick of the unicorn playbook... It hasn't changed for the last 15 years. It's outdated, it's not relevant for 2025." "They forget about their customers. They forget about their employees, they forget about how to build a company." AI will create MORE jobs, not fewer Hundreds of thousands of new autonomous businesses will emerge SMBs can now compete at enterprise scale "A three person team could achieve what took a 1000 team before that."

Why 90% of Sales AI Tools Fail (and the 3-Step Fix That Changed Everything) 36:54

www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.gtmaiacademy.com www.gtmaipodcast.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/tasleem1/ Tas Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7245478675247173632/?displayConfirmation=true The Experiment That Exposed Everything When Tas Hirani, a veteran enablement leader with a Six Sigma background from GE, noticed her sales teams struggling despite having access to cutting-edge AI tools, she did something radical. She didn't run another survey or schedule more training sessions. Instead, she went undercover as a sales rep while maintaining her enablement role. What she discovered explains why companies are spending millions on AI tools that collect dust while reps continue drowning in admin work. The Brutal Truth About Sales AI Adoption "Everyone's got LinkedIn, LinkedIn Navigator, ChatGPT, Perplexity... but when I actually sat in the seat and tried to use these tools the way reps do, it was Pandora's box," Hirani reveals. The problem isn't the technology—it's how we're implementing it. Here's why 90% of sales AI tools fail: The "Dead Weight" Problem: Traditional tech forced salespeople to adapt their workflow to the tool. As Hirani puts it, "Technology was like dead weight that people were hauling up the hill... trying to get to this sale, but I can't get there because I have to go to 12 different places." The Generic Solution Trap: Companies throw in Microsoft Copilot or ChatGPT behind a firewall and declare themselves "AI-enabled." Hirani calls this "a recipe for failure" because it ignores business-specific context. The IT Power Play: When IT departments impose generic AI solutions because they have "those two magic letters," adoption inevitably fails. The tools that work are chosen by the business teams who actually use them. The Reality Check That Changed Everything During her time in the sales trenches, Hirani discovered something shocking. When she shared AI tools that worked brilliantly for her, the reactions from her team were mixed: "Some reps said, 'I don't have any confidence in AI. It doesn't sound like me. My prospect is gonna know that it's not me if I haven't felt the pain and written that email myself.'" This revelation led to a fundamental insight: Every rep is at a different point in their AI adoption journey, and one-size-fits-all solutions are doomed to fail. Visual learners needed completely different tools than text-based processors New reps loved real-time coaching popups; veterans found them distracting Some thrived with vanilla ChatGPT; others needed specialized solutions…

www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.gtmaiacademy.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-martinis/ https://www.b2bcatalyst.com/ Breaking Down GTM Engineering with Scott Martinez: A Game-Changing Conversation Holy smokes, folks. I just had one of those conversations that makes you want to completely rebuild your entire go-to-market motion. Scott Martinez from B2B Catalyst dropped some absolute truth bombs that I'm still processing. Let me be straight with you - I've been in sales and enablement for years, and Scott's approach to GTM engineering is unlike anything I've seen. This isn't your typical "send more emails" or "hire more SDRs" playbook. This is surgical precision applied to revenue generation. Scott shared a story that stopped me in my tracks. He generated 700 MQLs across three companies - 180 for one, 90 for another, and 399 for the third. Guess how much converted to revenue? Zero. Zilch. Nada. Why? Because generating leads isn't the same as generating revenue. And that's where most of us get it wrong. Here's what blew my mind: While most RevOps teams are doing territory planning based on industry and company size, Scott's data shows that proper account qualification criteria can result in 2-5x higher close rates . Think about that. If you're targeting accounts outside your true ICP, you're operating at 50-80% reduced effectiveness. You could make 100 calls into qualified accounts and get 5x better results than the same effort into unqualified accounts. Interview your top 3 sales reps with a "Perfect Opportunity Worksheet" Ask them: "When you're researching the best prospect ever, what do you expect to see?" Look for specific signals: Scott's approach is brilliant here. Instead of trying to automate everything at once, he asks: "What's the one constraint that, if fixed, would unblock everything else?" Real example: An SDR team spending 2 hours per day on account qualification. Instead of replacing them with AI, Scott's team: Identified 13 discrete website signals Built a scoring rubric Automated the qualification process Ran 80% of their CRM through it Found all the whitespace in their market Result? SDRs got 2 hours back per day, marketing got proper targeting, and AEs could finally hit self-sourcing targets. Here's the exact math Scott uses (and you should too): To hit $10M ARR: Need: 180 new customers at $50K each At 25% close rate = 720 opportunities needed At 20% meeting-to-opp rate = 3,600 meetings needed At 20% conversation-to-meeting rate = 18,000 conversations needed At 20% contact-to-conversation rate = 90,000 dials/emails needed With 5 contacts per account = 18,000 accounts needed But here's the kicker - every 10% of unqualified accounts in this mix torpedoes your downstream metrics. Scott's take on AI is refreshingly practical: "AI on its own is useless. You have to target it, constrain it, focus it, and give it examples to mimic and scale." His process: Understand the manual process that works Document exactly how your best people do it Use AI to scale that proven process Never try to AI your way around a broken process Scott doesn't worship tools, but he's specific about what works: Phone data : You need 20%+ connect rates. If you're at 3%, your data sucks Email : Industry average is dying. Apollo worked a year ago, doesn't now Clay : Great for enrichment, but it's <50% of the actual work Dialer stack : Get your team having 3-5 conversations per hour Forget activity metrics. Here's what to track: Qualified account identification rate Contact-to-conversation rate (aim for 20% with good data) Conversation-to-meeting rate (10% minimum, fix messaging if lower) Meeting-to-opportunity rate Close rate by account qualification score…

www.gtmaiacademy.com www.aibusinessnetwork.ai https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimberlyhacker/ AI in the Sales Journey: Lessons from Testing 22 Note-Taking Tools I recently connected with Kim Hacker, Head of Business Operations at Arrows, who ran a fascinating experiment testing 22 AI note-taking tools simultaneously on sales calls. (read her in depth analysis here ) Her insights opened my eyes to how AI is changing our sales processes in practical, meaningful ways. Kim's experiment came from a real need. Working at Arrows, a company building AI-powered digital sales rooms, she wanted to understand which note-taking tools would best support their AI features. "I use ChatGPT, I use Claude, I use AI day to day. But I was feeling like I didn't have the knowledge to back up a marketing campaign for our AI features," Kim explained. What surprised her was how different the results were across all 22 tools. The top performers weren't just capturing information - they were making it immediately useful for sales reps. Fathom took first place, with Granola second and Circle Back third. These winners stood out by producing skimmable notes that captured exactly what matters in sales - key stakeholders, timeline, and buyer interests - without unnecessary fluff.…

Exploring the future of Sales and AI with Sami Rejeb 25:51

5 weeks ago25:51

www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.gtmaiacademy.com Sami Rejeb is no stranger to transformative technology. With over 20 years of experience in revenue management, he's seen the sector evolve from manual operations to dynamic, AI-driven systems. His journey began as a CRM consultant at KPMG, followed by roles such as Customer Care Director for a mobile operator, Head of Value Selling for Oracle in the EMEA region, and managing RevOps for Salesforce in the Nordics. These experiences, filled with challenges and successes, motivated him to leverage AI to address the key issues revenue leaders face today. From Global Corporations to Entrepreneurial Ventures Sami’s global experience stretches across Oracle and Salesforce, and he has now taken a bold leap into entrepreneurship with ValueOrbit. This transition from large corporations to a startup naturally comes with its own set of differences. Sami recognizes that the agility of a startup offers unique advantages not typically found in larger, more established organizations. While major corporations like Oracle and Salesforce are marked by a high level of sophistication in sales strategies, the startup ecosystem allows for more flexibility and fortunately quick adaptation to new opportunities. At ValueOrbit, Sami aims to harness this flexibility to answer crucial sales-related questions: What deal should I prioritize? Should this be in our forecast? What should my next step be? These questions were central during his tenure at Oracle and Salesforce, and remain so as he pioneers ValueOrbit. The Birth of ValueOrbit The inception of ValueOrbit stemmed from a personal mission: to maximize the potential of CRM systems in driving sales success. While working at major organizations, Sami built layers of methodologies atop existing CRM tools, but it wasn’t until the advent of AI that he truly saw the potential to transform these processes. The use of AI in sales—something that previously seemed like a distant dream—became a reality, offering unprecedented possibilities for process enhancement. Sami’s approach with ValueOrbit focuses on revenue intelligence—spanning deal generation, closing, forecasting, and even conversational intelligence. Unlike traditional competitors, ValueOrbit doesn't simply aim to replicate existing solutions; it strives to redefine them by concentrating on process efficiency and automation. The Future of CRM and AI Integration Throughout our conversation, we explored the transformative potential of AI on CRM platforms. Sami believes that while CRM systems like Salesforce offer substantial value, they are ripe for evolution. He envisions a future where traditional CRM models, driven largely by manual input, are replaced or supplemented by automated systems that enhance user interactions. In the modern sales ecosystem, the integration of AI is not just about speeding up existing processes. It offers a unique opportunity to rethink and redesign the entire sales methodology. The current tools provide enormous data capabilities, but aligning these with practical, day-to-day operations remains a challenge that Sami is eager to tackle. Connect with Sami Rejeb If you’re interested in learning more about ValueOrbit and the innovative work that Sami Rejeb is doing, I encourage you to connect with him directly. You can reach out via LinkedIn or email him at sami@valueorbit.com . Thank you for joining me in this deep dive into the future of sales and AI with Sami Rejeb. Keep innovating and challenging the status quo—together, let’s build the future of sales.…

www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.gtmaiacademy.com www.sparkhire.com In the latest episode of the GTM AI Podcast, I got into an amazing discussion with Gary Schwake from Spark Hire, Inc. , a leading provider of hiring solutions for people-powered organizations. Their conversation explores the intersection of AI within the go-to-market (GTM) strategy and the hiring process, examining how AI can serve as a transformative tool rather than a mere technological novelty. The Spark Hire Story When asked about Spark Hire, Gary enthusiastically explains the unique proposition of the company. Spark Hire, initially a one-way video interview solution, has expanded to include an amalgamation of offerings by acquiring Co Meet and Cha, thereby providing holistic hiring solutions. These solutions are specifically tailored for people-powered organizations in sectors such as healthcare, education, and professional services. This approach allows Spark Hire to address the nuanced needs of these industries by leveraging advanced technologies. AI in Go-To-Market and Hiring A key part of the discussion revolves around AI’s role in both the GTM strategy and the hiring process. Gary emphasizes the imperative of utilizing AI to enhance human capabilities rather than replace them. He highlights the challenges of relying on probabilistic AI outcomes in hiring, pointing out the need for deterministic results to avoid unintended biases. In contrast, Jonathan reflects on the opportunities AI presents for refining interview processes and enhancing decision-making in hiring, balancing the need for data-driven insights with the irreplaceable value of human judgment. Strategizing with AI in a Changing Landscape Both speakers delve into how AI influences strategic decisions in contemporary business environments. Gary discusses how AI facilitates defining ideal customer profiles (ICPs) with unprecedented precision, extracting insights from unstructured data to improve targeting and engagement strategies. Jonathan, on the other hand, likens the application of AI to a strategic advantage, especially for experienced leaders who understand the framework of effective GTM strategies. The Collaborative Future The exchange of ideas also touches on the evolving relationship between roles within organizations, such as the CIO and CRO, as AI becomes more embedded in operations and strategy. Gary notes the necessity of a cross-functional approach in AI implementation, often orchestrated by CEOs to ensure seamless integration across departments and improve overall customer experience. Concluding Thoughts In concluding the episode, Gary gave insights on what businesses should prioritize and avoid as they approach the upcoming year. He stresses the importance of aligning AI initiatives with core business objectives, advising companies to begin simply and scale thoughtfully. By focusing on fundamental questions and challenges, organizations can effectively employ AI to bolster their operations and drive meaningful outcomes.

www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.gtmaiacademy.com Daniel Beecham: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-beecham/ In a rapidly evolving world where artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping industries and redefining job roles, understanding the nuances of AI implementation and adoption is crucial. In this enlightening podcast, I got to dig in with Daniel Beecham a fellow Founding Member of the AI Circle . We got into the intricacies of AI strategy, the challenges of adoption, and the exciting prospects for 2025. Meeting Daniel Beecham: AI Pro and Advocate Daniel's journey from a biomedical engineering student at Georgia Tech to a pioneer in AI strategy is both remarkable and instructive. His experiences range from spending time at a marketing startup, navigating IT consulting at Capgemini, to tackling AI challenges in product management, offering valuable insights into AI integration within businesses. Navigating AI Strategy in Organizations One of the core discussions revolves around the AI strategy in organizations. Daniel explains the importance of understanding the "why" behind AI adoption, emphasizing that AI should genuinely enhance business processes rather than act as a mere technological gimmick. He highlights critical steps in setting up an AI strategy, including assessing data maturity and ensuring good data governance. According to Daniel, businesses must have well-rounded representation within their AI governance teams, underscoring the need for executive leadership to play a role in prioritizing AI initiatives. Challenges in AI Adoption and Trust Building The complexities tied to AI adoption are well-articulated, particularly the gap between initial excitement and sustainable usage. Daniel notes the essential role executive sponsorship plays in fostering widespread adoption within an organization. Furthermore, the conversation touches on trust in AI systems—how do organizations ensure their AI tools are providing accurate, reliable results? Jonathan and Daniel explore techniques such as prompt engineering and citations in AI outputs to bolster trust and reliability in AI solutions. The Power of Proof of Concept and Evaluating Success Proof of concept (POC) initiatives are invaluable in evaluating AI tools' efficacy. Daniel shares insights from prior projects, illustrating how success metrics must be explicitly defined from the onset to measure POCs effectively. The conversation underlines how reductions in time and cost should align with stakeholder value, advocating for a metric-based approach to identify areas ripe for AI-driven transformation. Future Outlook: Hardware Innovations and Agentic Workflows As the podcast draws to a close, attention shifts to future predictions for AI in 2025. Daniel expresses excitement around AI hardware advancements and agentic workflows, highlighting their potential to revolutionize personal and professional landscapes. The integration of AI into hardware promises to enhance the realism and applicability of AI technologies, paving the way for increased optimization and user experience. Conclusion The podcast session with Daniel Beecham is an insightful exploration of AI's multifaceted journey through business strategy, workforce impact, and ethical considerations. It's a conversation that paints a comprehensive picture of where AI stands today and where it could potentially lead us tomorrow. As organizations continue to adapt and evolve, the insights shared in this discussion serve as guiding principles for embracing AI as a transformational force in society.…

Dramatic Shift and Impact of AI on Business and Go To Market 51:49

9 weeks ago51:49

51:49

www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.gtmaiacademy.com www.winningbydesign.com DRAMATIC SHIFT AND IMPACT OF AI ON BUSINESS AND GO TO MARKET Today hosted by Jonathan Moss we are thrilled to have Jacco van der Kooij the Founder of Winning by Design on to join us and talk about our favorite topic ;) Jonathan kicks off the conversation by highlighting the recent shifts in the go-to-market landscape. Over the past few years, businesses have transitioned from a "growth at all costs" mentality to emphasizing profitable, efficient growth. This shift coincides with the rise of AI as a transformative platform, presenting both challenges and opportunities for businesses. As Jacco points out, the impact of AI is not just about automation—it's about fundamentally transforming business models. Traditional inbound and outbound models are being replaced by AI-led growth, which emphasizes efficiency and scalability. Jacco introduces three key growth models: Product-Led Growth (PLG), Human-Led Growth (HLG), and AI-Led Growth (AILG). Each has its place in the market, but AI-Led Growth is particularly effective in optimizing costs and processes. According to Jacco, this model allows businesses to scale operations without exponentially increasing personnel costs. This change is crucial, especially in saturated markets where traditional human-led approaches are financially unsustainable. The discussion underscores the importance of viewing businesses like factories, where efficiency, quality, and scalability are the cornerstones of success. AI enhances these factors by providing rapid, accurate data insights, enabling businesses to adapt swiftly to market demands. While AI can substantially augment operations, Jacco and Jonathan agree on one crucial aspect: the human element. Relationships remain a cornerstone of business, especially in high-value transactions. The trust and brand reputation that a company establishes are invaluable. AI, rather than replacing human interaction, should enhance experiences by reducing friction in the buying process and allowing businesses to focus on nurturing relationships. Jacco highlights how AI is revolutionizing customer experience by delivering timely, accurate responses without the inefficiencies of traditional methods. Whether it's answering customer queries precisely or automating repetitive tasks, AI is redefining what businesses can achieve. However, achieving this requires businesses to rethink their processes and leverage AI to foster a seamless buying journey. The episode concludes with insights into where the industry is headed. Jacco envisions a future where AI reshapes pricing models, with dynamic pricing responding to real-time market demands. This shift, much like the introduction of AI itself, represents a renaissance in business—one where constant innovation and adaptation are key. The GTM AI Pod episode with Jacco is a critical exploration of how AI is not just an optional tool but an essential component of modern business strategy. For businesses looking to thrive in this new landscape, embracing AI to enhance both operational efficiency and customer experience is non-negotiable. As we continue to explore these changes, keeping the focus on creating exceptional buying experiences will be the defining element of success. For listeners and businesses alike, the message is clear: AI is here to stay, and integrating it thoughtfully will be the key to unlocking future growth.…

Exploring AI in Email & Communications to increase revenue with Luella.AI CEO Mustafa Saaed 24:37

www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.gtmaiacademy.com https://www.luella.ai/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mustafasaeed/ Good morning, good evening, or good afternoon—whenever you find yourself diving into this exploration of AI and business technology. I am excited to dive deep into the world of AI-driven communication innovations with Mustafa Saeed, CEO and co-founder of Luella.AI. The Genesis of Luella AI Meeting Mustafa was like meeting a force of nature in the tech world. His story begins with a YouTube channel that funded his university education, transitioning into a tumultuous but rewarding role at a marketing agency impacted by Apple's iOS 14 update. This led to a life-changing pivot that set him on a path of technological exploration and growth. At Clearco, a significant player in e-commerce investment, Mustafa thrived, honing skills in sales and consultancy that eventually culminated in founding Luella AI. Driven by overcoming challenges he experienced firsthand, Mustafa and his team have focused intensely on AI's potential to revolutionize business communication. Why Luella? What's in a Name? Interestingly, Luella didn’t start with a grand story. Mustafa candidly admits the name was suggested by ChatGPT during a low moment of noodling through domain names. It was deemed suitable through its uniqueness and simplicity—fitting for a tech solution aiming to be straightforward and effective. Transforming Email Deliverability Luella AI's focus is a response to an immense pain point in today's digital communication landscape—email deliverability. All too often, emails, including key business communications, end up in spam due to AI-driven spam filters' evolutions from giants like Google and Microsoft. Luella positions itself as a protector of sender reputation and deliverability. By employing intricate systems mimicking those of major platforms, it ensures that spam rates can be reduced significantly for its users. This isn't just an enhancement tool; it's a potential game-changer for any business reliant on effective email outreach. Insights into the AI-Empowered Future Mustafa sees a promising horizon where communication agents do not just automate but optimize. Luella isn't just about sending emails; it’s about refining and targeting these messages to maximize engagement and results. The AI isn’t just an executor but a strategist alongside the human element, constantly experimenting and learning. Agents of Change: The Larger Vision Where does Luella see its future? While staying grounded in cold email outreach for now, the company eyes potential expansions into other channels. The philosophy is intentionality over breadth—specialize deeply in a single facet and excel before branching out. There's an eagerness to innovate without losing focus, ensuring their existing solutions remain unmatched.…

www.aibusinessnetwork.ai www.gtmaiacademy.com Had a blast on the GTM AI Podcast with Paul Glover . As a tech enthusiast and a principal consultant at Burendo , Paul shares his profound understanding of AI's role in enhancing business processes, and I'm eager to share our dialogue with you. Discovering AI's Potential From tech beginnings as a business analyst to becoming a luminary in AI, Paul Glover has a rich story. He started exploring AI by viewing interactions with large language models as microservices, each contributing to the broader value in business settings. His journey led him to create PromChain, where he delved deeper into AI applications. Unravelling Burendo’s Mission Burendo is a UK-based consultancy firm. Paul, as a principal consultant, runs the AI community of interest and guides clients on utilizing AI effectively. Burendo’s approach is about embracing productivity through AI while ensuring that the clients can harness this technology efficiently. Simply put, it’s about trimming the complexity and aiding businesses in understanding and applying AI to streamline their procedures. The Shift in AI Usage AI is rapidly morphing, but there's a common pattern Paul has observed: organizations test AI tools stealthily. They view tools like ChatGPT as supportive yet unofficial. The challenge today is how businesses can officially integrate AI into their operations to derive clear value and efficiency. The Tools of Tomorrow As for the future, Paul believes we’re leaning towards deeper automation in tools like Jira and Azure DevOps. Companies are testing new functionalities to manage projects better, enhancing productivity by automating significant chunks of work. Transforming how we work with AI isn't just about adopting technologies; it’s about how these tools mature and reshape operations to reduce the workload on human resources. Process Overhaul One significant discussion point was the balance between adopting AI and evolving processes. AI isn’t a silver bullet that simply makes old processes faster; it's about understanding when current methods need transformation. Implementing AI should inspire improvements rather than merely automate outdated methods. Creating the Right Structure A pivotal part of this AI revolution is having the correct data structure. Paul emphasizes the importance of a knowledge base that supports AI tools, allowing efficient access and the right context for quality outputs. For those venturing into AI, setting up a test group to identify potential benefits across various tools is crucial. The Human Element in AI Paul’s innovative perspective involves working alongside AI, using it as a tool to support human creativity. By delegating routine tasks to AI, teams can focus on value-added activities, ensuring an optimal blend of human oversight and machine efficiency. Health Care App Case Study One real-world application of these principles was when Paul's team developed a health care app prototype for a client aiming for quick market entry. By leveraging AI tools, they compressed weeks of development into a matter of hours. Such examples highlight the tangible business value brought forth by intelligent AI deployment. Conclusion In wrapping up our conversation, Paul left us with a thought-provoking note on how AI is transforming the landscape of business productivity. With insights, tools, and practical applications, his approach at Burendo exemplifies a forward-thinking stance on technological evolution, ensuring businesses not only survive ...…
