Building client trust in sales conversations is changing in the age of AI. But according to Casey George, trust itself isn't going anywhere. If buyers have already made much of their decision before they speak to a seller, and AI can give everyone access to increasingly powerful tools, what actually makes someone worth buying from? In this conversation with Harry Kendlbacher, Casey George, Chief Revenue Officer at Monday.com, challenges the traditional B2B sales playbook. They explore why value is moving toward day one, why curiosity has become more important than the “gift of gab,” and why the future of B2B selling may involve fewer handoffs and more empowered sellers. What We Cover:
• Why trust is still critical when buyers are adopting AI
• Why the B2B buying process is happening earlier than the sales conversation
• Why curiosity has become Casey's #1 trait for top sellers
• How sales leaders can balance structure with seller freedom
• Why Casey sees a more frictionless sales model ahead ⏱️ Timestamps
