Episode Details

If you are trying to get budget approved for professional development, wondering whether AI can actually improve your sales coaching, or stuck trying to motivate senior reps who have stopped caring, this episode of Ask Jeb on the Sales Gravy Podcast covers all three.

Jeb tackles three real questions from the field. First, how to build the case for conference budget, whether you are asking for yourself or bringing your whole team. Second, what actually works and does not work when using AI to analyze and coach sales calls. Third, how to create urgency with successful but complacent senior reps who have lost their edge.

What You'll Learn:

• How to build the ammunition you need to justify professional development budget to leadership
• Why framing a sales conference as a reward or a team kickoff event can unlock budget at small companies
• Why Outbound Conference works especially well for small companies that cannot afford a traditional sales kickoff
• Where AI genuinely helps with sales call coaching, and where it falls apart at scale
• How to build a prompt library for AI call analysis and coaching
• Why some of your best reps stop trying and what that actually means
• How a transparent, goals-first conversation can re-engage a complacent top performer
• Why asking a veteran rep to teach the team can reignite their own learning and buy-in

Whether you are fighting for conference budget, experimenting with AI in your sales process, or trying to reach a rep who has checked out, this episode gives you practical, tested approaches you can use right now.
