Wouldn't it be nice if marketers don't have to worry about targeting the right market segments or successfully run personalized ad campaigns to generate more leads and traffic? Or worry about meeting their deadlines and ROI targets?
Sounds too unrealistic—right?
Well, don't get too excited just yet.
But for the first time in the history of marketing and advertisement, we are close to making it a reality, and the key to unlocking it all lies in Artificial Intelligence (AI).
With advancements in AI, Machine Learning (ML), and Natural Language Processing (NLP), marketing tools have become more intelligent. They provide sophisticated automation to perform the most challenging marketing tasks.
A 2021 Gartner survey suggests that 63% of digital marketing leaders find it difficult to deliver results with ad personalization, and 84% fancy AI to deliver real-time, personalized customer ad experiences.
To achieve marketing greatness, marketers need a deep-dyed understanding of AI and its impact on marketing and advertisement.
What is AI Marketing or AI in Marketing?
AI marketing is a blend of AI-powered tools that allow marketers to use customer data and insights intelligently. It enables them to make automated data-driven decisions regarding personalized ad campaigns, customer retargeting, marketing budget allocation, and more.
AI-Powered Marketing Analytics
Marketing is a data-rich industry. Due to the massive influx of marketing data, the existing data processing techniques are becoming obsolete.
Without powerful data processing, marketers cannot understand the needs of the customers and improve their products.
Salesforce reports that 66% of customers expect brands to understand and fulfill their expectations, while 52% want personalized offers from brands.
AI-powered analytics can crunch these big datasets to perform predictive data analysis. Better predictions allow marketers to anticipate customer's expectations early.
Creative AI—Creating Human-Like Content
AI has become more creative in the last few years. The development of Creative AI has enabled writers, artists, and designers to create human-like text-based and image-based creative content.
Modern AI marketing tools can generate automated ad content. They use Natural Language Generation (NLG), Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN), and other AI techniques like Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to design human-like ad assets, making the lives of marketers a bit easy.
AI-powered NLG tools can write ad copy, short-form, and long-form website and blog content automatically. Similarly, GANs can produce realistic images and videos.
Each of these tools can target a specific aspect of advertising. We have compiled a list of AI-powered tools which when used collectively, can benefit marketers greatly. In this guide, we'll discuss how AI can successfully generate automated ad creatives.
