In this episode of the Transform Sales Podcast: Sales Software Review Series, Eddie Bello and Victoria Abed talked about how B2B sales teams can use Pitch Avatar to overcome low outbound response rates. Pitch Avatar is an AI-powered sales enablement platform designed to transform traditional slide decks into engaging, personalized video presentations that stand out in crowded inboxes and accelerate sales cycles.
When it comes to Video Marketing, what alternatives were your customers most often using before buying your software?
Before using Pitch Avatar, sales teams often relied on:
-
Static PDFs and Slide Decks: Most commonly sent via email or messaging platforms without any tracking features.
-
Recorded Video Pitches: Sales reps would pre-record videos using tools like Loom or Vidyard but lacked personalization and often required manual editing.
-
Live Demos and Screen Shares: These required real-time engagement, making it hard to scale and limiting reps to only working hours or available time slots.
What challenges were your customers running into with those alternatives that your software helped them overcome?
Lack of Engagement Insights
Sales reps had no way of knowing whether prospects viewed the presentation, which slides they focused on, or how long they spent watching.
Outdated and Static Content
Emailing long, static PDFs often resulted in low engagement. The materials were hard to personalize, and often irrelevant or outdated.
Missed Timing and Opportunities
Reps often followed up too early or too late, missing the window when prospects were most interested, because they didn’t have real-time engagement data.
What are the key features of Pitch Avatar that help overcome the Video Marketing challenges?
How Pitch Avatar Overcomes Lack of Engagement Insights
Situation: Sales reps need visibility into prospect interest to follow up more effectively.
Problem: Traditional slide decks provide no tracking or insight into what prospects view.
Solution: Pitch Avatar includes smart presentation analytics that track who opened the link, what slides they viewed, for how long, and even captures lead form submissions. This allows reps to personalize follow-up messages based on real-time data.
How Pitch Avatar Overcomes Outdated and Static Content
Situation: Sales materials often feel generic and boring to recipients.
Problem: Static content like PDFs lack interactivity and fail to stand out.
Solution: Pitch Avatar allows teams to create dynamic sales content by adding avatars, voiceovers, video, and links to each slide. Presentations become engaging, AI-powered experiences instead of plain decks.
How Pitch Avatar Overcomes Missed Timing and Opportunities
Situation: Following up at the wrong time can hurt conversion chances.
Problem: Without visibility into engagement, reps guess when to follow up.
Solution: With real-time presentation engagement tracking and alerts, reps know exactly when a prospect has opened or interacted with the presentation. This enables well-timed, relevant outreach that feels proactive and personal.
