Is your team using (or considering using) AI writing tools to develop marketing content? If so, you’re in good company.

A recent survey by Aira found that nearly 59% of marketers surveyed already use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to optimize their existing content. However, the same study uncovered that only 13% of marketers believe AI-generated content is indistinguishable from human-generated content.

While most marketers make significant investments in strategies for creating and distributing fresh content, some overlook creating a plan to leverage a valuable secondary audience: the internal team. However, if you want a leg up on the competition, thinking about ways to get more from each campaign with internal content enablement tactics is essential.

Because so much of a marketing team’s great work happens behind the scenes, the rest of the organization often has no idea what they’re up to—or why they should care. Content, in particular, can be a major blindspot within companies of all shapes and sizes.

But while employees outside of marketing don’t necessarily need to know “how the sausage is made,” they should be aware of what’s going out to the market. And the easier you make it for internal stakeholders to discover your marketing resources like blogs, ebooks, guides, videos, etc., the more likely they are to share them with their networks.

Your website is the first impression that many of your customers will have of your business. And while there are plenty of ways to optimize your site for maximum engagement, one of the most effective is to add a chatbot. But if you’re not a natural wordsmith, the thought of writing smooth responses can be daunting (and time-consuming). So, how can you create chatbot conversation flows with responses that are engaging, informative, and effective?

When you know a lot about your customers but are short on time, the simplest solution might be to use one of the best AI tools for marketing writing—like ChatGPT—to whip up fitting responses. If you’ve never used a virtual writing assistant before, figuring out how to use this type of resource might feel intimidating. But guess what? Automated, smart writing tools are here to help, not hinder.
