AI Adoption in Sales Isn’t a Technology Problem

AI Adoption in Sales Isn’t a Technology Problem - It’s a Behaviour Problem
When it comes to AI in sales, most teams aren’t struggling with technology. They’re struggling with behaviour.
Surface-Level Adoption
In most sales organisations today, AI is still being used at the surface level:
Writing emails
Summarising meeting transcripts
Answering RFP questions
Useful? Absolutely.
Transformative? Not yet.
The real challenge isn’t that the tools don’t work - it’s that they haven’t yet earned a natural place in how salespeople actually operate.
Why AI Hasn’t Stuck Yet
For seasoned Account Executives, especially in enterprise sales, deals are complex, situational, and deeply human.
Many AEs aren’t naturally process-oriented. Their instincts guide them more than playbooks do. So it doesn’t always feel intuitive to think, “AI can help me here.”
Embedding AI into existing workflows - email, calendar, CRM - helps with exposure, but that alone doesn’t change behaviour.
The missing ingredient is psychological: trust and relevance.
The Need for an Anchor Moment
To change behaviour, you need to create an anchor in a salesperson’s mind - a clear, specific moment when it makes sense to turn to AI for help.
That moment must be:
Relevant - it connects directly to a real challenge or “job to be done.”
Emotional - it supports confidence and clarity when stakes are high.
Contextual - it understands the flow of the deal and the player’s role in it.
When salespeople experience that connection - the “this is exactly when I’d use it” moment - adoption shifts from novelty to habit.
From Assistant to Navigator
The future of AI in sales isn’t about assistants that generate text.
It’s about navigators that guide execution.
Imagine an AI not as a task helper, but as a trusted companion in the passenger seat - quietly tracking the road ahead, pointing out what’s around the next corner, and giving you the confidence to focus on driving the deal.
You might not look at it every minute. But you always know it’s there - helping you stay on course.
That’s the level of trust and presence real AI adoption in sales requires.
