# Beyond the Hype: The Real Way AI Is Driving GTM Performance
[-1.png) Admin](https://www.infinityn.com/articles-and-news/author/admin) : Published December 1, 2025
[Technology](https://www.infinityn.com/articles-and-news/tag/technology) [Account-Based Go-To-Market](https://www.infinityn.com/articles-and-news/tag/account-based-go-to-market) [GTM Technology](https://www.infinityn.com/articles-and-news/tag/gtm-technology) [AI](https://www.infinityn.com/articles-and-news/tag/ai) [B2B](https://www.infinityn.com/articles-and-news/tag/b2b) [GTM](https://www.infinityn.com/articles-and-news/tag/gtm)

A recent [article from GTM Partners](https://hub.gtmpartners.com/home/new-research-how-top-businesses-are-using-ai-to-drive-gtm-performance-in-2025) has highlighted some fascinating research on how top businesses are leveraging artificial intelligence. The insights come from the 2025 [HubSpot for Startups + AI in GTM report](https://www.hubspot.com/startups/ai/ai-in-gtm-report-pt1?__hstc=99931841.d9fec716b6b03482eda9a32487155e5b.1748508785858.1764250149488.1764320734573.44&__hssc=99931841.1.1764320734573&__hsfp=3292274271), which surveyed 500 founders and business leaders. The report makes it clear: AI is no longer a futuristic concept but a present-day reality that’s reshaping how companies grow.
#### A New Era for Marketing, Sales, and Support
The report shows that AI is revolutionizing the three core pillars of a go-to-market strategy:
- **Marketing** is now about personalizing messages for every potential customer at a massive scale. AI can tailor outreach based on a person's online behavior, what they're interested in, and the perfect time to connect with them.
- **Sales** has transformed into a high-reach, efficient operation. AI can handle tasks like listening to calls, writing emails, prioritizing leads, and even booking meetings. This frees up salespeople to do what they do best: sell.
- **Support** is becoming proactive. Instead of just reacting to problems, AI can predict issues before they happen, answer common questions, and resolve problems before they escalate.
#### The Secrets of High-Performing Companies
So, what separates the companies that are excelling with AI from those that are just dabbling? Here are some of the key takeaways from the research:
**1. They are built around AI.** The best-performing companies aren't just using a few AI tools; they've integrated AI into more than half of their go-to-market technology. These companies are seeing significant benefits, including lower costs to acquire customers and higher rates of upselling and cross-selling.
**2. They focus on results, not just efficiency.** While AI certainly makes teams faster, its real power lies in its ability to drive tangible business outcomes. Companies are using AI to improve their sales pipeline, get a better return on their marketing campaigns, and keep their customers happier for longer.
**3. They are attracting investment.** Venture-backed companies are investing heavily in AI, and investors are taking notice. Having a strong AI strategy is no longer a "nice-to-have" in a pitch deck – it's becoming a requirement.
**4. They are scaling revenue, not just teams.** The report features a compelling case study of [Fathom](https://www.fathom.ai/), an AI-powered meeting assistant. The company is on track to reach $100 million in annual recurring revenue with fewer than 150 employees. They've achieved this by building their entire go-to-market strategy around AI, from automated note-taking to sales insights.
**5. They understand that strategy is more important than tools.** It's easy to get distracted by the latest AI software. However, the most successful companies are also investing in their people and processes. They have clear ownership of their AI strategy, dedicated teams, and a culture that encourages learning and experimentation.
#### The Next Big Thing: Agentic Marketing
The article also looks to the future, introducing a concept called "Agentic Marketing." This is the idea of using AI agents to handle the early stages of engaging with potential buyers. Instead of a salesperson following up on a form submission, an intelligent AI agent can guide the buyer through a personalized journey in real time. A company called [Qualified](https://www.qualified.com/)is already pioneering this approach, using AI to engage website visitors, qualify them as leads, and book meetings instantly.
In conclusion, the message from the GTM Partners article is clear: AI is not just another technology trend; it's a fundamental shift in how businesses operate. The companies that embrace this shift and build their strategies around AI are the ones that will lead the way in 2025 and beyond.
