AI Marketing workshop
AI marketing workshop:
Stop feeling guilty and start writing copy that works
You know you should be doing more marketing. The guilt hits every time you see a competitor’s social media post or newsletter while yours sits empty.
“I should really get around to writing some content.” “I need to update our website copy.” “We should probably have a proper marketing plan.”
Sound familiar?
It’s like being a meerkat that forgot to stand guard. While you’re busy with your head down, dealing with the day-to-day stuff, your competitors are popping up everywhere. Standing tall, getting noticed, claiming territory that could have been yours.
You’re not lazy. You’re not bad at marketing. You’re just busy running a business, and marketing always gets pushed to tomorrow’s to-do list.
Ready to finally tackle your marketing without hiring an agency?
The marketing guilt is real
This workshop is for you if you’re drowning in responsibilities. Website updates, social media, campaigns, reporting–and somehow you’re supposed to find time to write compelling copy too.
Marketing feels like another full-time job on top of the one you already have. You know it matters, but client work pays the bills today.
Either way, you’re stuck in the same cycle: knowing you need to do marketing, feeling guilty about not doing it, then feeling overwhelmed about where to start.
What if you could write your marketing copy in an afternoon?
Not hire an agency. Not spend months learning copywriting. Just sit down with your laptop and create content that connects with your customers.
That’s exactly what this workshop teaches you to do.
Using AI tools and proven frameworks, you’ll walk out with real marketing copy you can use immediately. Plus the skills to create more whenever you need it.
What happens in one day
9:00am-11:00am: What makes you different
Before you can write compelling marketing copy, you need to know what makes your business worth talking about. We’ll guide you through discovering:
- What genuinely sets you apart from competitors
- The unique value that makes customers choose you
- How to turn features into benefits people care about
11:00am-12:00pm: Get your business statements right
Your mission, vision, values, and purpose aren’t just website filler or another box to tick; they’re the foundation of everything you write. Lisa will help you:
- Review and refine your existing business statements
- Create new ones if you’re starting from scratch
- Use AI prompts to get closer to statements that feel right (we can’t guarantee happiness, but we can get you closer)
12:30pm-1:30pm: Your brand voice guidelines
Using your refined business statements and our brand archetype quiz, you’ll create voice guidelines that ensure all your future content sounds like you, not like everyone else.
1:30pm-2:30pm: Customer personas and content planning
Turn customer pain points into content ideas. Identify the customers you want to attract. Create a content marketing plan you can easily follow.
All of this becomes the foundation for writing AI prompts that create content in your voice, for your audience, solving their specific problems.
Want to finally stop procrastinating on your marketing?
Why AI + human beats pure AI every time
AI can write content faster than any human. But it can’t tell your stories, understand your customers’ specific problems, or capture what makes your business unique.
This workshop teaches you to use AI as your writing assistant, not your replacement. You provide the strategy, the insights, and the human touch. AI handles the heavy lifting.
The result is marketing copy that sounds like you and connects with your customers, created in a fraction of the time it would take to write from scratch.
Who this is for
- Marketing managers who are stretched across multiple responsibilities and need to create content efficiently without sacrificing quality.
- Business owners who know they should be doing marketing but feel overwhelmed about where to start or how to find the time.
- Anyone who’s tired of feeling guilty about their marketing and wants practical skills they can use immediately.

I have achieved so much since doing this workshop; it has totally changed the trajectory of my business in a significantly positive way.
What impressed me most was how the process has helped me cut through the noise and identify exactly who I’m meant to serve. This wasn’t just theory, it was hands on – roll up your sleeves and I achieved everything I wanted to right there in the session. By the end, I had clarity on my ideal client and the tools to craft messaging that truly resonates with them. The AI strategies are powerful prompts that will help me connect with the people who need my expertise most, not just some clever prompts someone thought up.
If you’re in business spinning your wheels and want to get the traction needed to start reaching the clients you’re meant to help, this workshop will show you the way. It’s an investment in your mission and your business. Highly recommended for anyone serious about making a real impact.
