Today’s episode is brought to you by Grammarly.
Ever have one of those weeks where you spent more time replying to Slack and email than doing actual marketing work?
You’re not alone. The average marketing team spends 28+ hours a week just keeping up with comms.
That leads to burnout, frustration, and a whole lot of performative productivity that doesn’t actually move the needle.
AI-fluent marketing teams are changing that. Grammarly’s 2025 Productivity Shift Report shows how they’re using AI to:
– Cut down on back-and-forth
– Automate content, research, and reporting
– Eliminate busywork
– Make space for strategy
We’re marketers because we love crafting campaigns, driving revenue, and proving impact – not spending all day buried in messages.
Get the report and see how top teams are making AI actually useful.
