Build Better Campaigns with AI

You don’t need a full-time strategist to level up your marketing — but you do need clarity.

This week, we’re breaking down how to use AI to generate better ideas, connect with the right audience, and launch campaigns that actually work — without wasting time or sounding generic.

🧠 Strategy Jumpstart: From Blank Page to Campaign Plan

If you’ve ever opened a Google Doc and thought “...now what?”, this one’s for you.

Here’s the workflow we use with clients and ourselves:

Start with this prompt:

“Give me 10 creative campaign ideas to help [audience] achieve [goal] without [obstacle].”

Then ask:

“Which of these is most emotionally compelling?”
“How would this campaign feel on Instagram, email, and a landing page?”

Refine and build:
Use AI to create caption ideas, headlines, social calendars, even press release drafts. Then you edit like a strategist.

🎯 Know Your Customer Before They Even Know You

Most marketing misses the mark because it assumes too much.

Here’s how to flip that:

Start with what you already know — even if it’s just age range, platform, and interests — and use this prompt:

“Build a buyer persona for a [type of business] targeting [gender], [age range] who are currently researching but not ready to buy. Include lifestyle, motivations, frustrations, and tone of messaging that would resonate.”

Then ask:

“What kind of lead magnet would make them feel more in control?”
“What email subject lines would build trust without pressure?”

We used this exact flow to help a remodeler reach clients before they were ready for estimates — and it worked.

🔥 Prompt of the Week

“What message would resonate with this persona?”
Use this after building a profile in ChatGPT. The answers often reshape the entire campaign — and save you from writing noise.

👇 That’s a Wrap
