The AI answers the call and acts as a potential customer. They take on personas to simulate behaviors like difficult or reluctant customers. You then do your pitch, handle objections, etc. At the end you get a transcript that's 'graded' to show you where you could improve your sales approach.
And you're right, I'm not a sales guy. This project is for people like me who want a risk-free place to learn the basics of sales so that when I do talk to an actual human, I won't panic and freeze up like I always do.
Most high-level sales people rely on role play partners but that requires a pretty a big commitment. This would make a great product, imo.
Also (tip): Study, memorize and internalize a sales script for your product/service...along with the objection handlers and closing questions. Practice every single day. You'll gain massive confidence because you know exactly what you are going to say, every time.
That's turning out to be a valuable feature of LLMs in many areas. You can practice complex interactions with them without worrying about boring or annoying them. Even the most patient human teacher gets tired eventually. LLMs don't.
I'd buy that. I'd buy that for interview preparation as well. Maybe 5$ per hour, up to 15$. I wouldn't buy a subscription, only actual consumption of the service.
Love the idea of AI grading the answers, hopefully this can be extended to marking/evaluating/grading subjective manuscripts.
For me there's none is more boring than marking/evaluating/grading manuscripts. I prefer hard labor like gardening or farming than doing that activities although I'm quite good at evaluating stuffs I think.
Can you please elaborate how you do this and based on what metrics/scheme/etc the answers are being evaluated?
