Welcome back, fellow marketers, to the second installment of our blog series on harnessing the power of AI in marketing. In this edition, we’re diving deep into the realm of writing and exploring how AI can revolutionize the way your marketing team creates content.

As the Director of Marketing at Xeno Media, I’ve seen firsthand how integrating AI into our writing process has been a powerful tool for efficiency. From content generation to proofreading and personalized communications, AI tools have streamlined our workflow and boosted our productivity.

 

A Couple of My Favorite AI Capabilities & Benefits for Written Content

Solving the Dreaded “Blank Page”

Anyone who has to write any kind of content knows the ominous nature of the dreaded blank page. It stares at you and the first line takes 10 times longer to write than the rest of the whole piece. AI solves this problem fairly effectively by offering a draft for what you are working on. This very blog was started by AI. But this section wasn’t included in it. AI isn’t going to write the whole thing for you, or at least you shouldn’t let it. But it’s going to provide you with a framework, which can be a huge relief.

Outline for Proposals and Reports

There are so many different kinds of marketing proposals and reports. There are Return on Ad Spend Reports, Monthly Reports, Customer Insight Reports, Market Research Reports, and unique proposals for each new client request. For your team, the requests for info might be coming from the C-suite, but the daunting task of creating new reports is the same. AI software can provide a valuable outline for your reports and proposals in just seconds. Sure you still have a lot of work to do from there, but you’re not reinventing the wheel every time. 

 

What Else Does AI Have to Offer for Written Content?

Have you ever had that horrible, soul-sucking marketer’s moment when you realize you’ve sent out an email blast, a postcard, a social media post, with a TYPO? If you’re on the creative side of marketing, the small details can be hard to focus on when you’re creating big-picture marketing campaigns. Even though you check your work, you’re too deep in it to see some of the mistakes, right? But with AI-powered tools like Grammarly and ProWritingAid, you can ensure your content is error-free and consistent without breaking a sweat. These tools catch grammatical errors, suggest stylistic improvements, and even help maintain the right tone.

We’ve found that using AI for automated email generation has freed up valuable time for our team, allowing us to focus on more strategic initiatives.
