Unfortunately, most salespeople give up after a couple of "no's" not because they lack skill, but because the timing wasn't right. This is where our AI assistant, Elsie, steps in. Elsie transforms sales by persistently and politely connecting with prospects until the timing is right. Plus, we're expanding Elsie's reach to more channels, including WhatsApp and SMS. All in today's newsletter. Happy reading!

Finding the right people is how you create a successful business. For us, remote culture has been key to find top talent. We’re not defined by location – we’re defined by exceptional performance. We're a group of high achievers who thrive in a collaborative environment, regardless of geography. Plus, we’ve found a lot of amazing talent outside Sweden - we’re now hiring several positions all over Europe (but still fully remotely). Interested in joining? Check out our open positions on our website. Maybe you’re our next star! PS. We're not always working on growing LinkedClient, we're also taking canoeing classes sometimes ;)

You walk into work on a Monday morning, a bit late, and find out that your new assistant has been there since 7 AM. She’s prepared your day, listed the clients to call, summarized your meetings and noted key points to discuss. Throughout the day, she reaches out to new clients, schedules meetings and follows up on past ones. When you head home at 6 PM, she stays, prepping for the next day and reaching out to more potential clients. She never sleeps and keeps your prospects engaged in your name, through her "Forever Campaigns". So you can focus on meeting clients, negotiating and closing deals. Read today's newsletter to find out more about "Forever Campaigns"!

Can you believe it's only been a year since we officially launched LinkedClient? Today, we're thrilled to celebrate a major milestone: achieving 1 million USD in ARR. It all began in 2020, when I had a bold vision to revolutionize sales with AI and brought Henric Otterberg and Mikael Haag on board. Those early days were dedicated to building and refining our product, ensuring it could effectively solve real-world challenges. Such cutting sales admin and giving human SDRs the chance to do what they love the most: closing deals. Fast forward to Q4 2022: We launched our beta, receiving invaluable feedback from real users that shaped LinkedClient into the powerhouse it is today. Then, in Q3 2023, the pivotal moment arrived. We exited beta and proudly introduced LinkedClient to the world. Now, we're marking a monumental achievement: reaching 1 million USD in ARR within just one year. None of this would have been possible without our exceptional team and the early adopters who believed in us from the beginning. To our pioneering clients: your trust in a newcomer has fueled our growth, and we're incredibly grateful for your partnership. Looking forward, we're focused on launching meeting booking functions, AI-automated CRMs, and more. The future is bright, and we're excited to continue this journey of innovation. P.S.

In my experience, the number 1 reason why startups fail is because they don't take action. (And how we grew to 30+ countries in 3 years) Startups don't fail because they have bad ideas. They fail because: - Spend all time to set up plans - Hire a team way too early - Obsess over money Here’s how we at LinkedClient succeed: 1. Focus on taking action: Instead of endless planning, we take small, consistent actions every day. 2. Prioritize revenue generation: we focused on making our first €, then scaled from there. 3. Built a minimal viable product (MVP): we launched quickly to gather feedback and iterate. We still iterate all the time. 4. Learn by doing: we don’t wait to learn everything first; we learn as we build. 5. Stuck to a daily routine: we commit to daily, repetitive actions to compound progress. Stop trying to learn before you build. Start building while you’re learning. That's how you crush the competition and become part of the 1% who succeed. 🔔 Follow me for more AI sales content ♻️ Share this with your network if you found it useful PS.

3 years ago, I started to build an AI sales rep and everyone said "you're delusional". Today, our AI is closing deals and 76% more efficient than human SDRs. (Read this if you're working in sales👇) You're a sales rep. You love to meet clients, negotiate deals, and enjoy client lunches – that's why you chose sales, right? But instead, your day is packed with admin. Cold calls, hunting for leads, and scheduling meetings consume most of your time. It eats your day, leaving little room for the parts of the job you actually enjoy. You think you need to work harder. Need more time. Become more efficient. (Am I wrong?) But the fact is, no matter how hard you work.. admin will still be your reality. Unless.. You have AI sales assistant Elsie by your side. This is what a work day is like with Elsie: - No more wasted time: Elsie tackles cold calls, lead generation, meeting scheduling, and follow-up, freeing you to focus on high-impact activities. - Always on the clock: While you clock out at 6 PM, Elsie keeps working, prepping for tomorrow and nurturing leads. - Personalized outreach: Elsie's messages are crafted based on your insights, ensuring every interaction feels genuine. The result? 76% more efficient than human SDRs. Humans are no longer enough in sales. Today, the best-performing sales reps are humans with AI assistants. 🔔 Follow me for more AI sales content ♻️ Share this with your network if you found it useful PS.

As a 3-year AI entrepreneur, I constantly hear people say: "AI is taking over!" "Robots will steal our jobs!" These anxieties are understandable. Facing a revolutionary tech like AI can feel a bit sci-fi. But the truth is, AI isn't here to win over us – it's here to help us. In today's feature of AI Sales Weekly, I'll guide you from fear to power. Happy reading! #AISales #AIAssistant #Elsie #LinkedClient
