What the source measured

From a survey of 4,050 sales professionals; Gen Z sellers spend 35%. 48% lack bandwidth for cold outreach.

What it means for Indian businesses

Research, first drafts and reminders are the parts of selling we automate.

The other 60% goes to research, data entry, internal updates and chasing. None of that needs a salesperson's judgement, but all of it delays the next conversation.

We build agents that research a lead before the call, draft the first message for a person to send, log the call in your CRM and schedule the follow-up. The salesperson keeps the conversations.
