DISC, a framework that’s (still) incredibly relevant for selling in 2025

Partagez cet article :

Imagine this: you’re on a discovery call with a prospect.

After 3 minutes, you can tell they want to get straight to the point, they interrupt, and they’re already asking: “How much does it cost?”

Another day, same pitch - but this time your counterpart smiles, speaks with emotion, shares their vision, and interrupts you to say: “Oh, I love your logo—who did you work with?”

Same product, same salesperson… but two completely different reactions.

And that’s where the DISC framework comes in…

DISC in two minutes

DISC is a model for understanding human behavior.

Created by William Moulton Marston (the same person who inspired Wonder Woman!), it groups the way we interact into four main profiles:

  • D – Dominance: loves challenges, results, speed.
  • I – Influence: sociable, optimistic, loves persuading.
  • S – Steadiness: calm, reliable, seeks harmony.
  • C – Conscientiousness: analytical, structured, rigorous.

In sales, this model helps you adapt your message… to the person, not the persona.

Why DISC is still a powerful ally for salespeople

1. Understand before you persuade

Identifying a prospect’s DISC profile means decoding their “language.”

  • D → concision, ROI, speed
  • I → energy, vision
  • S → reassurance, stability
  • C → proof, details, logic
2. Smooth the relationship

When you adapt your style, friction disappears.

Your prospect feels understood—and that changes everything.

3. Improve your closing rates

A salesperson who adapts their pitch to the customer’s profile can increase their chances of closing by up to +30% (SalesOdyssey.fr).

Humanlinker – the AI Sales Copilot that (truly) reveals your prospect’s personality

You’re probably thinking: OK, DISC is great… but how can you know whether your prospect is more D, I, S, or C before you even speak to them?

That’s exactly what Humanlinker does.

👉 Humanlinker is an AI Sales Copilot that hyper-personalizes your entire sales cycle—from personalized outreach to meeting preparation.

Hyper-personalization from the very first message

The AI automatically generates messages tailored to:

  • the prospect’s challenges
  • their business context
  • their recent news and activity
  • their role and responsibilities
  • and most importantly… their DISC personality

Each message is unique, aligned with their way of thinking, their pace, and their motivations.

You’re no longer doing “mass outreach”: you’re building relevant conversations.

Humanlinker also prepares your sales meeting (with AI)
Once your prospect is warm, Humanlinker automatically prepares your meeting.
You receive an ultra-complete AI Meeting Prep:
  • company summary
  • weak signals
  • personalized questions
  • likely objections
  • value angles
  • decision-maker behavioral analysis
  • communication tips tailored to their DISC profile

But the most powerful part is what comes next 👇

AI Personalities Matching – align your style with your prospect’s
Humanlinker doesn’t just detect your prospect’s personality.
The AI also compares:
➡️ your personality (as a salesperson)
➡️ the decision-maker’s personality

The goal:

  • identify alignment drivers (speed, structure, emotions, vision)
  • anticipate where you’ll need to adapt

The tool literally tells you:

  • “Open very directly- he likes to move fast”
  • “Slow down - he’s very S”
  • “Emphasize precision - this is a highly rigorous C”
  • “Add storytelling - an I profile will respond to it”

It’s like showing up to a meeting with a behavioral GPS.

And in 2025, that’s a devastating advantage.
