What's inside

Eight chapters. One framework.

A leader's playbook for turning AI hype into deal velocity — what Agentic AI actually is, where it belongs in the funnel, and how to evaluate the vendors selling it.

The Rising Pressure on Revenue Leaders.

97% of executives expect revenue mandates to grow. AI adoption is the unlock — but most of the spend is going to the wrong end of the funnel.

Why Mid-Funnel Optimization is the Pressure Release.

Volume without velocity is a dead end. The pipeline isn't your problem — the stalled middle is.

The Sales AI Adoption Paradox.

83% of teams using AI grow revenue, yet only 25% are actually using it. The blocker is clarity, not appetite.

What is Agentic AI?

Generative AI creates. Agentic AI acts. The difference between prompt-driven content and goal-driven execution — and why it matters for sales.

How to Identify Whether AI is Agentic.

Foundational model, productivity tool, or true agent? A clear way to categorize what's hitting your inbox and avoid "agent-washing."

High-Impact Intervention Points.

AI tools are crowding the top and bottom of the funnel. The middle — where deals actually move — is wide open.

A New Velocity Equation.

Revenue = Opportunities × Win Rate × Deal Size ÷ Cycle Time. Agentic AI improves every variable simultaneously.

How to Evaluate AI Agents.

An 8-step checklist for buyers — from clarifying the use case to forecasting ROI — designed to cut through vendor noise.
