Hosted by Taylor Marks, each episode explores modern marketing through the lens of today's AI-driven landscape, including content creation, messaging, buyer psychology, funnels, launches, offer strategy, and audience growth. This is not a podcast about becoming an AI expert or replacing human teams with bots. Instead, Pretty Smart Marketing focuses on helping real business owners market more effectively in a world where AI is changing how businesses create, communicate, and sell. Each week, Taylor shares practical strategies, proven frameworks, behind-the-scenes experiments, and open, honest conversations about what's working right now - not last year. AI is changing the way we run our businesses, but when it comes to good marketing? There's no replacement for tried and tested, real-world data. Pretty Smart Marketing combines the two.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-30T00:18:25.621694+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pretty-smart-marketing-7505299"},"episode":{"title":"31 | The Real Reason AI Feels Generic And the 5 Files That Change Everything","slug":"31-the-real-reason-ai-feels-generic-and-the-5-files-that-change-everything","published_at":"2026-05-12T12:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pretty-smart-marketing-7505299/31-the-real-reason-ai-feels-generic-and-the-5-files-that-change-everything","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pretty-smart-marketing-7505299","url":"https://launchbabes.com","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/16990e60-ec80-473e-9bbc-6fc7411ce9d9.mp3","summary":"You’ve tried using AI for your content… and somehow it all sounds the same.
