We talk to hundreds of business owners across the country each month, and a recurring complaint surfaces: “Young people don’t want to work—especially in sales.” While it’s true that employee expectations have evolved over the past decade, Gen Z isn’t as lazy as some might believe; they simply have different perspectives and tech-savvy approaches to work.
If you’re looking to attract talented salespeople from this generation, it’s time to re-evaluate your tech stack.

The latest CRM innovations can enhance your sales process, ensuring that no opportunity is missed and no client is forgotten. Features like automation, AI-driven insights, and mobile access can empower Gen Z salespeople to be more efficient and effective.
Embrace Omni-Channel Contact Center Solutions
Today’s customers interact through various channels, from social media to live chat.
