AI has been transformative for a lot of things in marketing. A lot of things are a lot faster and easier now especially creating images, graphic, videos and copywriting.
But... more often than not, the end result is worse, not better.
As you've undoubtedly seen, there's so much AI slop out there now.
This might make it feel more noisy or competitive, but it's actually a huge opportunity for small businesses because it's never been easier to stand out.
You just need to put a LITTLE bit of effort in.
A lot of customers also don't respond well to AI selling them something, like fake people or a quick flyer that's been pumped out with no effort. It can make a business look like it doesn't try.
That's why for our clients we use real videos of real staff treating real people. It feels REAL (because it is).
You don't need a fancy camera or an expensive videography shoot. You just need a smartphone, and capture what you do with simple filming.
In fact, looking slightly less professional can make it feel more authentic and less like a 'commercial', which is what people resonate with.
Don't get us wrong, we love AI for things like analysis, operations, optimisation + ideas etc.
But for creative and ESPECIALLY branding, shoot real things with real people. Yes, it takes a bit longer, but it's worth it.
