AI Sales and Search: What’s Changing in B2B Buyer Behavior

Most B2B teams still operate like buyers need to speak to them before making a decision.That’s not really how it works anymore.Buyers are doing their own research. They’re using AI to evaluate vendors, compare options, and form opinions long before a sales conversation ever happens.That doesn’t just impact sales.It changes how your business shows up, how clearly you communicate value, and whether you even make it onto the shortlist.On this episode of WinsDay, Jessie Lizak will sit down with operators who are working in this environment every day to talk through what’s actually happening across sales, search, and buyer behavior.Topics:1. How Better Humans Will Lead AI Sales2. How AI Search Is Changing Buyer Evaluation3. AI Helps You Sell With the Right Tools4. What Makes Businesses Visible in AI SearchJoining the conversation:Christopher Carter, CEO of Approyo, Inc. & MugatuAIChris has worked across more than 55 industries, helping companies navigate SAP, AI, and cloud environments while scaling performance and reducing complexity.Ryan Bailes, Founder & Director of Marketing at Bailes + ZindlerRyan works directly with businesses to improve how they show up online, from website strategy to SEO and AI search optimization, with a focus on what actually drives results.At the center of this discussion is a simple idea:If buyers can’t find you, understand you, or trust what they see, they’re not moving forward.If you’re responsible for growth, pipeline, or visibility, this is a conversation worth being in.Join the conversation:Reveting.com

AI Won’t Save Your Marketing Strategy

AI is being added to marketing teams everywhere. New tools, faster workflows, and more automation are becoming the norm. Expectations are rising just as quickly. But the connection to real results isn’t always clear. The gap between AI and ROI shows up in how strategy, content, and execution come together. Without that alignment, progress stays surface-level. This WinsDay, the focus is on what actually drives growth when AI becomes part of the system. Jessie is joined by Michelle Hamilton, who leads AI adoption and change management at AnswerRocket, and Tom Langan, founder of Talex Media and creator of the Legendeering approach. Michelle works with enterprise teams where AI is already in place, and the real work comes down to adoption, alignment, and execution. Tom brings a value-led approach to content, focused on building trust, consistency, and stronger connections with the right audience. Together, this conversation connects AI, marketing, and strategy in a way that reflects how teams actually operate. We’ll cover: 1. The Gap Between AI and ROI 2. Why Reciprocity Drives Better Marketing 3. High Performers Don’t Rely on AI 4. Why Value-Led Brands Stand Out If you’re working with AI and still trying to understand how it ties back to meaningful results, this is a conversation worth tuning into.

AI-Powered Direct Mail for Sales Teams 2. Over-Reliance on CRM Data Hurts Pipeline Growth 3. From Sales Rep to $100M CEO 4. Why Growth Stalls After $50M This episode focuses on what changes between early traction and scalable growth, from pipeline strategy and demand generation to marketing systems and execution discipline.
