The State of Sales Breakfast in London
Sales is getting harder. Buyers are more informed, cycles are longer, and the noise has never been louder. So what are the leaders who are actually growing doing differently?
That's exactly what we're getting into.
AutomateNow is bringing together a small group of sales and business leaders for a morning of honest conversation, real insights, and a genuinely good breakfast at one of London's most iconic venues.
The format is different this time.
We're opening with a podcast-style conversation on stage, getting under the skin of how top leaders are tackling today's sales challenges: prospecting, pipeline, technology, and the human stuff that no tool can fix.
Then the room takes over.
Every person will have the chance to share what they're working on, what they're seeing in the market, and what's actually moving the needle for them. No presentations. No pitching. Just a candid exchange between people who take sales seriously.
If you are a sales or business leader who wants to:
Understand how others are using technology to prospect and grow
Share your own challenges and hear how peers are solving them
Leave with at least one idea worth acting on
...this breakfast is for you.
Spaces are limited. The conversation will be worth it.
