Introduction:

The promise of Generative AI (GenAI) is that it can quickly help users create something new: images and text, plans and materials, ideas and solutions. That capability would be a huge and welcome boon for busy marketing professionals. Yet the GenAI experience often produces disappointing results that it’s easy to wonder what all the fuss is about. It’s especially challenging if you’re in an organization with an expectation or mandate that you incorporate AI into your work.

But with the right tools, tactics, and step-by-step guides, you can experience GenAI as the useful tool it was meant to be. This unique, two-module course is designed to address exactly your needs as a professional marketer. It will teach you how to do prompt engineering RIGHT for your role. In fact, this unique course will put you in the top tier of GenAI users, leveraging AI to put you way ahead in marketing and your career. You’ll learn:

  • Better ways to generate awareness, leads, and higher lifetime value customers
  • Brighter ways to organize resources, automate processes, and execute tactics
  • Shrewder ways to analyze data
  • Smarter ways to manage people
  • More cost-effective ways to reach your organizational goals

Module 1: Introduction to Generative AI

Description:

Module 1 is the introduction to GenAI you didn’t know you needed. We’ll start by reviewing the foundational concepts of Large Language Models (LLMs), because understanding how they work leads the way to appreciating how they can be leveraged.

We address what GenAI systems are good at and what they are not good at (yet). Jim demonstrates how to converse with ChatGPT to create better project plans, blog posts, and emails as well as advanced strategies for creative problem-solving. You will be equipped with the knowledge and tools to leverage LLMs to transform your critical thinking and creative processes.

We will be using Chat GPT 4.0. You will need to have an account you can log into. The free version is fine.

    • Create three or more GenAI assistants (agents) to automate specific tasks.
    • Bring your best tips, tricks, and traps back to Module 2 for open discussion.

Module 2: Test-Driving Generative AI.

Description:

We’ll share and critique your efforts and discoveries and share personal best practices. The emphasis is on experimentation and learning in a collaborative setting.

This is a hands-on session that mixes show-and-tell, testing, and adding to a collective workbook for future reference. This is a wholly interactive, hands-on session so you will not just learn, but get a feel for the power of collaborating with GenAI. You will start to apply what you learn to your job during this module.
