Welcome to the Instantly Relevant AI Marketing Podcast. Now, in seven minutes, you'll learn how this show turns AI automation and human oversight into a measurable B2B pipeline, how to get it to work together, how to get AI marketing that delivers specifically for B2B. Now, there's plenty of hype that exists. So this show exists to help you not have this magically appear, this pipeline. You'll need practical plays that work this week and next and every day to keep your brand trusted, to use these technologies to keep your costs down and allow you for scale and competition in the world. That's the promise here. I'm going to go over how to use AI marketing techniques with automation with humans to get it right. Hi, I'm Thomas Elvick. I've consulted in AI for over 15 years in the last five specifically in AI marketing. My agency is instantly relevant, and I've helped billion-dollar enterprises win half a billion dollar contracts. I've helped SaaS companies grow from 20 to 80 million in ARR, and we've helped countless entrepreneurs climb from that five figures to six and even seven. I was an early open AI beta user, adopter, and you know, I served as a fraction of a market leader to many of these companies that I work with. I've built a YouTube channel with an audience over a million subscribers on the Cut the Tie podcast. And we use the same playbook with AI, Automation, and Humans to do just that, to derive lots of revenue for companies, for our own, and for our social media. So I test a lot of this stuff in the wild. I'm going to make sure you have a clear, overarching strategy statement so you know how this is going to fit into maybe other initiatives you have. I'm also going to go through some tactical things, the workflows, things you can run today, things you can get your hands on, and maybe a specific tech or use case. You know, so we'll talk about answer engine optimization to large language models, to LinkedIn, to Meta, YouTube, TikTok, CRMs, all of it. Marketing operations to sales. I'm going to go over also the gotchas and the traps to avoid. So you can save time, reputation, and really just money. Where humans and oversight kind of engagement come together and where those real conversations and real values lie, that's super important to any AI marketing strategy, in particular in B2B, where there's very much so trust-driven conversations. And you need to build trust in a B2B sales environment. You also get the exact kind of inputs to gather, the steps to follow, the metrics that matter, where to use data and how to stay in compliance. I'm going to go over a lot of those things in these episodes. Now there's a trifacted that works here, right? AI is, you know, for speed and power and compute and thinking. Automation helps drive that with timing and with just repetition and getting rid of misses on your teams and execution. And that human refines and engages so the messages sound like a person. So there's a real person on the other side, the person who really knows the customer. That trifact of AI automation and a human is really how you're going to personalize without being creepy so you can scale without losing your voice, keep your brand together, you know, route the interest from one piece of content to another to your funnels. You want to make sure that when you make this move into tech and you operationalize it, you're not losing that human element. And we're going to really get into that with that trifecta and really look at how humans, AI, automation in particular work and how they work together. A lot of this stuff is going to be around B2B. B2B marketing is different than B2C, but we focus on B2B because it's leveraging humans in the mix and it has the mixes of the right kinds of AI technology and automation to do this. That helps you sample the right strategies and the right tech so you can drive demand, so you can niche your ICP, so you can be really thoughtful of how you're on LinkedIn and how you're doing your meta or how you're on TikTok. We're not going to just dump it all and make you have to do this. But these should really help set the stage for how we see, how we test, how we work things with AI and other applications. Who is this for and how do you gonna use it? This is for the solopreneur who wears every hat, needs to get a playbook that we you know that helps helps grow content, helps grow brand awareness, helps grow their revenue. They need little, they have very little time to do guesswork. They need systems, they need to know how stuff works and how it works well. This is really for you and the small to mid-sized marketing teams, that marketing leader of one that has a small team or maybe an extended agency helping that really needs to get clear on strategy and what tool choices and what's truly capable and what should be the impact for doing that. So the idea is I want you to listen to these while you're on lunch, while you're taking a little walk, while you're driving your car, maybe just have seven minutes because someone's uh canceled a meeting on you. Jump in, get an idea, find an episode of something relevant to you.
