March 11, 2025

Most marketers struggle to know where to start with AI. 

The vast number of tools, the rate of change in the space, and the sheer scale of what AI can do can make the whole thing very overwhelming.

The reality is AI can handle busywork so you can focus on strategy, creativity, and execution… if you know how to use it properly.

That’s why we created the AI-Powered Marketer’s Cheat Sheet—a one-page guide to help you streamline your workflow, automate tasks, and work smarter with AI.

Let’s break it down.

Stop doing these tasks manually

Marketers waste hours on tasks that AI can handle in seconds. 

If you’re still doing these manually, you’re already behind:

❌ Writing from scratch → ✅ AI drafts, you refine

❌ Brainstorming content ideas manually → ✅ AI generates 50+ in seconds

❌ Sifting through analytics → ✅ AI summarizes key takeaways

❌ Repurposing content → ✅ AI turns one post into 10+ formats

❌ Overcomplicating marketing plans → ✅ AI generates structured campaign strategies in minutes

❌ Project planning from scratch → ✅ AI maps out structured timelines and action steps

These aren’t just time-savers. They free up mental energy for more important work.
