The B2B sales automation industry is in a transformative phase. According to a recent study, as much as 80% of B2B sales interactions in 2025 are expected to take place through digital platforms.
As the digital landscape evolves, companies increasingly seek innovative solutions to streamline their sales processes, enhance productivity, and foster meaningful connections with their prospects.
To discuss this transformation, we called on GetSales.io. Offering a suite of B2B sales automation tools, GetSales.io is dedicated to addressing the modern challenges that businesses of all sizes face.
We had the privilege of speaking with GetSales.io co-founder Eugene Salamatov, whose expertise has been instrumental in shaping the platform's success over the past three years.
Eugene Salamatov is the co-founder of GetSales.io, a platform offering B2B sales automation tools since 2020, which aims to provide innovative solutions tailored to modern challenges. Eugene has over a decade of experience as a software developer and CTO, focusing on IT and marketing in the B2B sector.
Spotlight: GetSales.io has an "all-in-one" solution to automation. Can you elaborate on this approach in terms of features and usability?
Eugene: GetSales.io is designed around the core stages of the workflow of Sales Development Representatives (SDRs):
- Find and enrich contacts by identifying and collecting potential clients, as well as enriching profiles with essential contact data (corporate email and phone number).
- Personalized outreach with tailored sales scripts for individualized touch using GPT technology and multi-channel communication, including email, LinkedIn, and phone.
- Engage and close clients through comprehensive reporting, seamless data export to CRM systems, and facilitated booking calls during the salesperson's available slots.
GetSales.io serves a broad range of clients, from startups to big enterprises. How do you adapt to meet the unique needs of diverse groups?
For startups, we provide automation of the lead generation process, which is vital for startups to find and engage potential clients. This ensures they can focus on growth while we handle the intricacies of finding new customers.
For enterprises, GetSales.io seamlessly digitizes the sales process and offers precise analytics and dashboards. Large companies can easily oversee their sales teams, streamline operations, and make data decisions. Our platform is designed to simplify and enhance the complexities of managing extensive sales operations.
With the comprehensive range of features that GetSales.io offers, how do you identify the most suitable services for your customers' goals?
Our approach is consultative. We work closely with our clients to understand their sales and marketing objectives. Based on their goals, we recommend specific features and functionalities.
For instance, a company looking to improve its lead generation might benefit more from our data collection and enrichment tools, while another aiming for better customer engagement might focus on our omnichannel automation features.
Could you walk us through a case study where a client has significantly improved their sales process using GetSales.io?
A mid-sized marketing agency with a team of six salespeople in an outbound team faced challenges with their process:
- Manually scouting potential leads on LinkedIn
- Adding each lead to their CRM by hand
- Sending LinkedIn connection requests and noting down messages
- Setting multiple reminders for follow-ups
- Searching for emails if there is no LinkedIn response
- Manually logging every message exchange in the CRM
- Time-consuming data analysis
Every prospect took over an hour of a salesperson's time. With GetSales.io, we automated these steps, allowing the sales team to focus on meaningful interactions. The result was a 20-fold increase in productivity, streamlining their sales process.
You have integrated AI into your sales engagement platform. How is this technology incorporated into GetSales' functionalities?
Artificial Intelligence is at the heart of GetSales.io. Our platform harnesses AI to ensure every interaction with a prospect is deeply personalized. By connecting your offer directly to a prospect's needs, we elevate the chances of engagement.
Delving into LinkedIn profiles and company data, our AI crafts relevant messages that feel tailor-made for the recipient. As conversations evolve, the AI assesses the dialogue, intelligently suggesting the most effective next steps to keep the momentum going.
GetSales.io specializes in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) alongside AI. Could you delve into how this technology is utilized within the GetSales.io platform?
If AI is the heart of GetSales.io, then RPA is undoubtedly in our hands. Outbound sales, by nature, involve thousands of repetitive tasks that hinge on specific conditions and triggers. While our AI is focused on personalizing each interaction, RPA ensures that these personalized messages are delivered accurately and timely. It's like having a diligent assistant who never misses a beat.
Moreover, our data enrichment engine works tirelessly, unlocking as many B2B channels as possible, ensuring that our outreach is expansive and precise. Combined, AI and RPA transform the sales process into a harmonious blend of personal touch and efficient delivery.
You have a sizeable team of employees worldwide. How does GetSales.io manage internal team collaboration and project management across different time zones?
To streamline collaboration, we've strategically built independent teams in each timezone. This structure ensures that there's always a team active, ready to tackle challenges and drive projects forward. We emphasize robust processes, ensuring every team operates with a shared vision and clarity.
To bridge geographical gaps, we rely on a cutting-edge technology stack that simplifies communication. Tools like cloud-based project management software and real-time collaboration platforms keep us connected, ensuring that, no matter the distance, GetSales.io functions as one unified entity.
With the impending release of GetSales 2.0, could you share more about the upcoming features, particularly about leveraging AI-powered companions to boost business efficiency?
As we gear up for the launch of GetSales 2.0, we're excited to shed light on some transformative features we're introducing. Central to this upgrade are our AI-powered Sales Agents, personalized and fine-tuned for each client. These agents are designed to evolve with every successful deal, continuously learning and refining their approach. They'll adeptly manage messages and emails, guiding prospects seamlessly toward a demo.
Furthermore, our enhanced lead-scoring mechanism will harness the power of embedding models and vector databases. This advanced system will pinpoint the persona a lead aligns with, allowing for a more targeted approach to addressing their specific pain points. With these innovations, GetSales 2.0 is expected to redefine sales engagement, as we want to create warm, meaningful connections that benefit both sides.
Could you shed some light on the industry's future over the next few years and what GetSales.io is working on to remain competitive?
