Two boxes can turn a plain-English ICP into a search that finds and ranks sales leads in seconds.
1. The Sales Technology Podcast episode centers on SalesBot and Jeremy Schiff’s explanation of AI lead generation for sales teams. 2. David Delaney hosts the conversation, and Jeremy Schiff is SalesBot’s founder with a PhD in robotics and applied machine learning from Berkeley. 3. The episode asks how AI can automate finding and engaging sales leads while keeping outreach usable for real sales reps. 4. Jeremy says his earlier company built personalized restaurant recommendations and was sold to OpenTable before he pivoted into recruiting and sales. 5. He explains that RecruitBot started as an end-to-end recruiting tool, but customer demand pulled the company toward lead generation. 6. SalesBot now focuses on automating the work of finding and engaging sales leads with less time and effort. 7. Jeremy says competitors mainly build databases from their users or CRMs, while SalesBot crawls the entire internet. 8. He lists the data types stitched together in the system as experience data, investment data, revenue data, industry data, demographic data, and contact information. 9. Jeremy says the company has about 690 million people in its database and claims two to three times more people than bigger players. 10. He says the system pulls contact information in real time so the data does not go stale. 11. Jeremy says users can describe an ideal customer profile in natural language and give a website link. 12. He says the AI can generate a search that finds tens of thousands of people with the right job titles and industries. 13. Jeremy says SalesBot often finds 10 to 19 times more leads than competitors. 14. He says that larger pool of leads means reps are “fishing in ponds, other people aren’t,” which can increase responsiveness. 15. Jeremy says the platform can generate personalized email campaigns from the unique data and can also support phone, X, LinkedIn, and Facebook follow-up. 16. He says one workflow is to export data into tools like Salesloft or an instant leader and run outreach there, while another is to do outreach directly inside SalesBot. 17. The tone is practical and product-driven, with David asking implementation questions and Jeremy answering in feature-by-feature detail. 18. The format stays interview-based and conversational, with repeated examples from daily sales workflows, pricing, and agency use cases. 19. People building outbound sales, agency SDR teams, or founder-led prospecting will get the most out of it. 20. Listeners focused on broad theory or non-B2B consumer sales may skip it.
