The Best AI Tools for Sales Managers in 2025 (We Ranked Them)

Why Sales Managers Need AI in 2025
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is arguably one of the most powerful technology verticals we have seen since the inception of the internet. Sundar Pichai, the Chief Executive Officer of Google, said, “Artificial intelligence is more profound than fire, electricity, or the internet” (BBC News 2021). As AI begins finding pathways into nearly every industry, it is no surprise that sales is one of the first to be explored by innovative technology companies.
