Bill: Emma, ever felt like Google gives you too much and not enough at the same time?
Emma: Constantly. You search for one thing, and 20 minutes later, you’re reading about something totally irrelevant. What’s your point?
Bill: Sales reps don’t have time for that. They need quick, focused answers to prep for meetings or craft emails.
Emma: That’s where Perplexity shines. It’s like Google, but smarter. Instead of sifting through endless links, Perplexity gives you clear, summarized answers instantly alongside corresponding sources that have been fact-checked.
Bill: Uh-oh. This blog could come across as an ad for Perplexity. Good thing it’s free. So, let’s say I’m prepping for a client pitch. How does Perplexity help?
Emma: Ask it something like, “What are the latest trends in [client’s industry]?” or “What’s the market outlook for [product category]?” Perplexity pulls information from credible sources and summarizes it for you.
Bill: And what about a specific company?
Emma: Same deal. You can ask, “What are [company’s name] recent announcements?” or “What’s their position in the market?” It cuts through the noise and gives you exactly what you need.
Bill: That’s a game changer. No more getting lost in endless articles.
Emma: Exactly. And if you need deeper insights, Perplexity even provides source links so you can dive further.
Bill: Can I use it for crafting follow-ups too?
Emma: Definitely. You could ask, “What’s a good way to follow up with [industry] clients after a pitch?” and get tailored advice in seconds.
Bill: Time saved, focus maintained, and pitches sharpened.
Emma: Perplexity AI: your shortcut to smarter answers and better sales.
Bill: End of our non-ad blog. Fade to black anyway.
