Salesloft Rhythm: Making the Chaos of Selling Prioritized and Actionable

The sales industry for years has sought a “next best action” or “guided selling” approach. The idea is that technology would recommend the right action at the right time for sellers based on the current state of a deal. Powerful concept. It didn’t work. The old approaches were basically simple if-then statements.

Old-school guided selling wasn’t equipped to deal with:

• An average of six to seven people on the buying side 
• The volume of signals that make it hard for account executives (AEs) to prioritize their time
• Swivel chairing from one app to the next that slows reps down

All of these approaches left the sales teams trying to manage their workflow with confusing signals and inadequate tools – lots of them. Sellers were working for the technology and that is exactly backwards.

Salesloft Rhythm is the Future of Sales

Rhythm is Salesloft’s vision to fulfill the promise to guide sellers to success. The AI powered signal-to-action engine will take in and synthesize signals from multiple sources and rank them to produce a prioritized list of action. 

Ingesting signals from multiple places means sellers don’t have to keep task switching to make sure they’re seeing all the important data. With everything in one place, sellers don’t have to keep task switching to make sure they’re seeing all the important data.

Each action item Rhythm prioritizes comes with an explanation on why the action is important and what the likely outcome will be. This doesn’t just simplify the average rep’s day-to-day; it helps them build their skills by providing the context they need to understand why each action matters and what will come of it.
