Something exciting is happening on 24th May! 🧡
Two of our incredible team members, Bart Kowalczyk and Steven Marshall, are running a half marathon (that's 21.1km!) in support of cancer awareness and research.
Cancer has touched so many of our lives in some way. This is their way of doing something about it, and we couldn't be more proud.
If you'd like to get behind them, their fundraising pages are open now:
👟 Bart: https://hubs.li/Q04dGt7v0
👟 Steve: https://hubs.li/Q04dG1yT0
Even a small donation makes a big difference. Share this post and help them reach their goal!

Every generation gets more tools. Fewer get the results.
New sales teams have LinkedIn, automation, AI outreach, and content strategies. And yet the thing that still closes deals faster than any of them is a single well-placed phone call from someone who actually knows you.
In this video, Bart Kowalczyk breaks down why relationship-first selling is not old fashioned — it is the most underused competitive advantage in B2B sales today.
What you will learn:
Why the TikTok generation has loads of tools but struggles to build real pipeline
Why a personal recommendation still beats any piece of content ever produced
How to make calls that build relationships rather than kill them
What human to human selling actually looks like in practice
Why word of mouth remains the most powerful sales channel nobody talks about
Think about it this way.
If your car broke down in a city you did not know, you would not Google a mechanic. You would call a friend and ask who they trust. That trust — that recommendation — is worth more than any ad, any post, or any email sequence.
That is what this video is about.
About AutomateNow
We help B2B leaders build predictable growth by creating clarity first, before touching systems, technology or strategy. Clarity first. Growth next.
