MIT research shows 95% of enterprise AI pilots fail, not because the technology isn't ready, but because of people, process, and mindset. AI doesn't behave like SaaS: there's no fixed interface and no one-off go-live, so the classic pilot playbook sets projects up to stall. The companies that do reach production with measurable value share six habits: a clear process with a clear expected output, stakeholder alignment before kickoff, real AI skills in-house or through a partner, incentives that reward the new way of working, resources for iteration rather than just the launch, and an action plan built around early wins. Do it right and the payoff is real, our customers see up to 75% less admin time, 10× more insights captured in the CRM, and up to 20% higher sales conversion.

Today, Mediafly and Donna are joining forces as partners to introduce a new, voice-first era of revenue enablement—one where sales teams don’t adapt to systems, but systems adapt to them. **Built on deep CRM integration—especially for SAP Sales Cloud V1 and V2 environments—this collaboration ensures everything connects seamlessly from day one.** Together, we are making CRM screenless.

CRMs were meant to boost sales productivity, but with 55% failing due to poor adoption, they often become time drains. Sales AI assistants like Donna change that by automating admin — logging calls, emails, and meeting notes, surfacing insights, and prepping reps automatically. The result: cleaner data, 8× higher CRM adoption, accurate forecasts, and more time for reps to focus on what truly matters—building relationships and closing deals.
CRM
Sales reps lose up to two-thirds of their week to admin tasks like CRM updates, note-taking, and follow-ups — time that doesn’t generate revenue. This slows deals, causes errors, and increases burnout. AI sales assistants like Donna automate data entry, meeting summaries, and task logging, capturing and organizing information in real time. The result: reps win back hours every week, improve data accuracy, and can focus on what really matters — building relationships and closing deals.
