Surprising Changes Ahead For B2B Sellers (Forrester)
Mary Shea, principal analyst at Forrester – “I’m calling 2020 the year that B2B, sales, marketing and buying has changed forever.”
AI and automation put sellers on a path to fulfil their consultative destiny –
Shea believes that technology will increasingly take mundane tasks off of salespeople and give them better insights to be more consultative advisors.
B2B sellers become experts at creating and engaging with video –
“Historically, you would look for a salesperson who is a great communicator, a great problem solver, someone who can overcome objections and kick open that door and close that deal.
B2B sales leaders activate more employees on behalf of commercial goals
“The lone-wolf seller is facing extinction,” proclaims Shea. “As buy-side teams increase in size, expectations and expertise, we also need the selling teams to increase so that you have breadth and depth to meet the needs of a range of different buy-side stakeholders who may have different and competing agendas.”
Sales tech consolidation accelerates as buyers demand end-to-end solutions –
“Our research shows that about 41% of B2B organizations have reduced the size of their sales organization as a result of COVID economic hardships.”
This cost pressure is impacting the tech tools sales forces use as well.

Getting paid every day
PayPal is one of the first major companies to pay its workers as soon as it’s earned rather than having to wait every two weeks.
The move came after looking at the compensation and spending habits of its lowest-paid workers, many of whom were living paycheck-to-paycheck and relying on expensive borrowing (the company also boosted salaries after the research, says Bloomberg).
