What you'll walk away with

Most marketing teams are using AI, but mostly one person and one prompt at a time, with no shared system behind it. In 60 minutes, we'll fix that picture.

01

Where AI actually belongs in your stack.

How it connects to your CRM, analytics, CMS, and ad data, and why what the AI can see matters more than which model you pick.

02

A real workflow, built start to finish.

We'll turn a hand-built weekly performance report into a repeatable workflow: trigger, context, reasoning, action, QA, output.

03

A simple rule for what AI is allowed to do.

Green, Yellow, Red: which steps AI can run on its own, which need a human to approve, and which stay human-controlled.

04

Your first 30/60/90 days.

How to find and rank the right first workflow using hours saved, revenue opportunity, data readiness, risk, and ease.

Score your team in the first five minutes

Right at the start, you'll answer five quick questions on your phone. It takes about three minutes. You'll get an instant AI maturity score, and we'll show the room's anonymized results so you can see where you stand next to other marketing teams. Nobody sees your individual answers.

The five questions map to the five layers we'll cover: infrastructure, knowledge, workflows, automation, and measurement and governance.

Built for the people who run marketing

This session is for marketing leaders who own results and want AI to show up in them: CMOs, VPs and Directors of Marketing, heads of growth and demand gen, and marketing ops leaders.

This is for you if

Your team uses AI every day, but none of it adds up to a system you can rely on.

This is for you if

You're being asked for an AI plan and want one that's practical, safe, and grounded in your actual data.

This is for you if

You'd rather see a real workflow than another list of prompts.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes.

Will there be a recording?

Yes. Everyone who registers gets the recording and the checklist by email within an hour of the session.

How technical is it?

Not very. It's built for marketing leaders, not engineers. We show real tools, but we explain everything in plain language and keep the on-screen examples tool-agnostic.

Do I need to prepare anything?

Just bring your phone for the five-question assessment at the start.

Is my assessment data private?

Yes. We only show anonymized, grouped results to the room. No names or companies are shown.

What is Growth Pulse?

It's DataXGrowth's newsletter on marketing, data, and AI. It's optional, and you can unsubscribe any time.

Who's hosting?
