Episode notes

What does it take to create an automated system for business owners that really delivers value? For George Copeland, Co-Founder and CEO at Laborem Edge, it means time at the whiteboard as a mad scientist before you become a product expert.

A lot of time. Five years in fact. George is working on an automated version of a Google Ads management process that involves leveraging data for digital marketing with paid search.

Luckily, he has a partner who allows him to implement his ideas and figure out how best to iterate them using AI.

Any talk of AI these days is sure to get Mark excited, and he and George are riffing on the role that AI has to play in industry innovation and where that intersects with the role of the expert who knows how to prompt the AI and tell it what to do.

And then, where that intersects with the individual customers who are telling the expert what they want!

There's an appreciation of Gen Z philosophy and being able to express one's values that go beyond making money.

And there's the constant dance between the digital marketer wanting to showcase what's on offer effectively and the customer who needs to be communicated with in a language they can relate to.

As the mad scientists and creators become formula generators using AI, users, and customers become creators using the new formulas that exist.

With the right set of prompts, whole new landscapes open up. And, hopefully, you have your Lifetime Customer walking their Customer Journey in that new digital landscape with you.

Can you use generative AI for proof of concept for your next big digital marketing idea? Tune in to find out.

George Copeland runs Laborem Edge Digital Marketing Agency, helping professionals increase sales and save time growing their businesses.
