info_outlineAI has now hit the marketing space. And if you haven't jumped on the bandwagon yet, I'm about to make a case that you should. In today's episode, I introduce you to "ChatGPT" -- a machine learning tool that is a cross between Google Search, Siri, and your own personal copywriter. I'm sharing how it works and walking through 10+ use cases where this tool can make the process of writing your marketing assets SO MUCH EASIER and faster.
I also had a moment of inspiration while I was recording the show. I've created a 5-Day ChatGPT Challenge, delivered over email. This challenge will be a fun way to learn how to play in the sandbox of ChatGPT.
Here's how it will work:
- Subscribe to the Challenge here. www.mydigitalfarmer.com/AI That will trigger a daily email for 5 days in a row. (The first email will also include a DEMO VIDEO of me using the tool.)
- Subscribe to ChatGPT here. (It's free!)
- Each day, I'll give you a specific question to put into the ChatGPT query box. You'll see what it generates. That's it. That's all you have to do. After 5 days, you'll have a pretty good idea of different prompts you can use.
I PROMISE you... you'll immediately see the implications for how this can help you in your marketing. My daily email will also include a short paragraph highlighting the implications of how to use the response you see from ChatGPT in your marketing assets moving forward.
