How is AI for marketing like a paintbrush? 

Hand holding paintbrushes to show how AI for marketing is like a paintbrush

    In the hands of a skilled artist, a paintbrush can create a masterpiece. In less capable hands, that same paintbrush may produce lackluster results. AI works much the same way. It is a powerful tool, but tools alone do not create exceptional outcomes. 

    When experienced marketers apply strategic thinking, industry knowledge and creative insight to AI, they can train it to uncover opportunities, sharpen messaging and identify strategies that help brands outperform the competition. 

    Welcome to Media Relations Agency’s new era of strategic marketing! 

    We’ve been marketing industry pioneers from the time our agency first opened its doors nearly 40 years ago. And we’ve never stopped innovating. Now, our tech-savvy certified marketing pros have developed an AI marketing tool like none other.

    It’s designed to power business growth. 

    First, we taught AI how to apply our Strategically Aimed Marketing (SAM 6®) system. This six-step system is the foundation of all good marketing. It’s based on our decades of experience helping thousands of clients tell their stories. SAM 6 is a workhorse! 

    Then we figured out a way for AI to analyze how well a business is currently performing in the marketplace compared with top competitors, identify lead-generating opportunities, and create specific tasks to capitalize on those opportunities. 

    Sorry, AI can’t do it all. Capability ≠ execution. 

    You still need smart people to execute those tasks. You need insightful marketing strategists who know how to best apply your budget to AI’s wish list so you get the most from each spend. You need publicists to pitch and coordinate media stories; web designers to create hard-working sites and landing pages; graphic artists; video marketers, content marketing writers; etc. 

    Our clients appreciate that Media Relations Agency is a full-service agency, with all those skills readily available to them. While most clients do not need them all at once; every member of our talented team is here when needed.
