The great irony of marketing automation is that it’s manual. You, the marketer, write all the rules. You build the plans, produce the creative, run the promotions, personalize the experiences and analyze the performance. Traditional marketing is all human, all the time.


But, the landscape has changed. Leading brands know that in order to deliver the personalization and experiences modern consumers expect, marketing must become smarter. It must become marketer + machine.
AI doesn’t replace marketers, it augments your knowledge and capabilities. AI gives you superpowers. It’s time to discover yours.
This Course teaches you how to:
Discover AI use cases for our business.
Evaluate and rate AI-powered technologies.
Integrate AI solutions into your marketing technology stack, team and strategies.
