Frequently Asked Questions
What's the fundamental difference between Artisan and Dealmayker?
Artisan's slogan is literally 'Stop Hiring Humans' - they want to replace your BDRs with autonomous AI agents (Ava) that send messages without human involvement. Dealmayker empowers your human BDRs with sales intelligence so they can have authentic, meaningful conversations. We believe humans build better relationships when they have the right intelligence about who to reach, why they'll care, and when to reach out.
Why not just replace BDRs with AI like Artisan suggests?
Because AI agents can't build genuine relationships, read emotional cues, handle complex objections, or adapt to unexpected responses like humans can. Studies show 73% of B2B buyers prefer human interaction. Prospects can tell when they're talking to a bot, which damages trust and conversion rates. Dealmayker gives your human BDRs the intelligence to reach the right people - the human connection does the rest.
How does Dealmayker make BDRs more productive without replacing them?
Dealmayker eliminates 80% of manual research work. Instead of spending hours researching leads, BDRs get instant ICP fit scores, buying signals, pain points, and conversation starters in under 10 seconds. This lets them focus on what humans do best: building authentic relationships, reading emotional cues, handling objections, and having real conversations that close deals.
What about Artisan's claim that AI agents work 24/7?
Yes, AI can send emails 24/7, but is that what buyers want? Most B2B buyers prefer human interaction during business hours, not bot-generated messages at 3am. Quality beats quantity. Dealmayker helps your human BDRs reach the right people at the right time with authentic messages, leading to higher conversion rates than high-volume bot outreach.
Is Artisan really worth $18,000-24,000/year vs Dealmayker at $348/year?
Artisan charges $1,500-2,000/month to replace BDRs with AI. A good BDR costs $50-80K/year. With Dealmayker at $348/year, you make your existing BDRs 3-5x more productive by giving them better leads and context. The math: empowered humans with intelligence beat AI agents on relationship building, trust, and close rates - at 98% lower cost than Artisan.
Can prospects tell they're talking to Artisan's AI agent?
Often, yes. Despite claims of 'human-like' writing, prospects frequently recognize AI-generated messages through patterns, tone, and inability to handle complex responses. This creates distrust and lower conversion. Dealmayker gives your human BDRs intelligence to reach out with authenticity, creating genuine connections that AI can't replicate.
What if I'm a solo founder - should I use Artisan or Dealmayker?
If you want to stay human-led in your sales, Dealmayker at $29/month gives you the intelligence to reach the right people with authentic messages. You bring the human touch that closes deals. At $1,500-2,000/month, Artisan is expensive for solo founders and removes the human connection that often matters most in early-stage sales.
Does AI really lack emotional intelligence compared to humans?
Absolutely. AI can analyze text patterns but can't truly understand emotion, read subtle cues, build genuine rapport, adapt creatively to objections, or form authentic relationships. The best sales happen when prospects feel heard and understood by a real person. Dealmayker gives humans the intelligence to reach the right people - the emotional intelligence and relationship building does the rest.
