For the last 20 years, organizations’ ability to produce has overtaken their ability to sell, and, for at least as long, customers have unfailingly embraced every opportunity to avoid interacting with traditional field salespeople.

Readers will embrace The Machine either to exploit the new sales order or to avoid falling victim to it.
