According to a Harvard Business review article,

“Of all a company’s functions, marketing has perhaps the most to gain from artificial intelligence.

Marketing’s core activities are understanding customer needs, matching them to products and services,  and persuading people to buy—capabilities that AI can dramatically enhance.”

Imagine marketing tasks being executed faster, more efficiently, and at a scale we’ve only dreamed of. With AI, we will be able to automate repetitive tasks, analyze immense amounts of data in real-time, and gain invaluable insights that would otherwise take us ages to uncover. The potential for growth and success is limitless.

While AI can undoubtedly transform our processes, it cannot replace the power of human interaction, oversight, and approvals. It will be crucial for marketers of the future to strike a balance between leveraging AI and maintaining authentic connections with our audience.

With the rapid speed at which AI is evolving, and any change comes fear, anxiety or sometimes feeling overwhelmed. If you feel any of those, know that it is natural; Recognize and embrace them. And then take a step however small to get started.
