The marketer's AI starter guide.
Make Claude and ChatGPT actually useful for marketing work. No hype, just what works.
Most AI advice for marketers is either evangelism or doomerism. This guide is neither. It's the prompt patterns we actually use day-to-day, the model selection logic that matters, and an honest take on what AI is genuinely good at — and what it's still bad at.
What's Inside
Eight focus areas for using Claude and ChatGPT to actually move marketing work forward.
Prompt Patterns That Consistently Work
Six prompt patterns we use across 80% of marketing tasks. Templates included.
Content Workflows: Brief → Draft → Revise
The three-stage workflow for producing AI-assisted content that doesn't lose your brand voice. The revision step is where most marketers leave value on the table.
Research and Competitive Analysis
Prompts for synthesizing competitor positioning, market research, and customer interviews. Plus the verification step that prevents hallucination from poisoning your strategy.
Email and Ad Copy Generation (With Quality Checks)
Generation prompts plus the systematic review checklist that catches AI's most common copy failure modes before they ship.
Customer Interview Synthesis
Pull repeatable insights out of customer interview transcripts in 15 minutes instead of two hours. The tagging and synthesis prompt structure.
Model Selection — Which AI for Which Task
Beyond Claude vs ChatGPT, which specific model variant to use (Sonnet vs Opus, GPT-4 vs o1) for different cognitive load levels. Cost vs quality trade-offs explained.
What AI Is Genuinely Bad At Right Now
Three categories of work where AI consistently underperforms or produces dangerous output. Don't use AI for these — and how to recognize when you're tempted to.
Who This Is For
Marketing Managers
Marketers responsible for output across content, email, ads, and reporting — looking to compress execution time without losing quality.

Solo Marketers
In-house marketers running 100% of marketing for their company who need force multipliers, not new tools to learn.
