WEBINAR
Making Value Selling Stick in an AI-Driven GTM: From Pilot to Scale

May 6, 2026 | 12:00 - 1:00 PM ET

Inside large, complex organizations, the real challenge isn’t launching a value-selling initiative. It’s making it stick.

In this Customer Value Community webinar, hear from:
 

Bob Erdle

WW VP, Enterprise Software Sales at IBM

Alex Schrager Headshot

VP of Sales at Ecosystems

They will share how IBM is scaling value selling across thousands of sellers, hundreds of products, and a highly matrixed organization, while integrating AI into the way sellers discover, quantify, and communicate value.

Starting without a large business value team or top-down mandate, IBM focused first on winning internal buy-in, integrating early with core systems like Salesforce, and building momentum with the field before scaling headcount.

“If you’re not where they’re looking every day, then you’re not relevant.”

This early integration, combined with a bottom-up adoption approach, enabled IBM to move from pilot to global rollout, introducing governance and standardization without slowing teams down.

Now, IBM is extending this foundation by evolving toward an AI-native GTM model.

By combining internal AI capabilities like WatsonX with Ecosystems’ ViViEN, IBM is building toward a dual-agent system—where AI helps sellers generate messaging, identify relevant proof points, and estimate value, while ViViEN structures, quantifies, and governs that value across the sales cycle.
