One benefit I see is that it will usually produces something very politically correct that will usually go through the endless censorship that has taken over the internet (personally on the web since beginning of the 90's it was something else entirely, a mix of academic papers & free flowing ideas on clumsy graphics all over the place - oh boy that was so much decentralized and fun).
But then I only see problems: flatness, falseness, shallowness, lack of originality, creativity and most of all the dependency it slowly develops.
I m currently trying to find the first customers for my startup, and I don t yet have the budget to hire a marketing specialist or agency.
AI has become my temporary marketing assistant. I use it to:
research potential customer segments;
review and improve outreach messages;
prepare questions for customer-discovery calls;
analyze replies and identify patterns;
turn marketing experiments into clear next steps.
However, I still research each company, personalize the message and send every outreach email myself. The difficult part is finding the right balance between saving time and sounding like another automated sales message.
I'm curious to know how you fellow solo-founders stay organized and on task and distraction free. I really enjoy working on a project for myself but when I can do it all from home there's a million other things on my mind. What strategies have worked so far and maybe more importantly what strategies haven't?
