Business Growth using AI Tools

Next week I have a speaking engagement to share with a room of professionals about ‘AI’. It is such a big subject and everyone seems to be talking about it. It reminds me of back in the day when the Internet was in its infancy. All talk but not so much action.
I thought it would be interesting for my readers to learn a little bit about what I have learned and how I am using AI to massively improve my productivity. I will split my presentation into sections on particular business functions. I will be focussing on:
“How do I grow my business cost effectively when I just don’t have enough hours in the day?”
Marketing – always more to do, never enough budget – and how do I stand out from the rest. AI is a game changer – especially for a start-up or Entrepreneur who is still trying to do a lot themselves.
There is still a place for experience, creativity, and human emotion.
When you think about ‘where should I start?’ consider what is the one bottleneck in your business that if you solved it – life would become easier.
Below, I explore look at how AI tools are revolutionising marketing strategies, with examples of well-crafted prompts that maximise potential – so you can give it a try for yourself. (I might have had AI help me some what with the below). The most important thing to remember is to review what comes back, based on your own experience and who your audience is. Not everything produced by AI is factually correct or right for your brand.
