Finally: AI Training That Actually Reduces Your Marketing Workload (Instead of Adding to It)

If you're a marketing leader at a small or midsize company, you probably recognize this scenario:

Your team's content calendar is overflowing. Sales keeps requesting "quick" assets. Leadership wants more strategic thinking from you. But your days are consumed managing execution and putting out fires.

You know AI could help. And maybe some team members are already experimenting with tools on their own. But others are hesitant to try it, worried they're "not technical enough." Everyone's using different approaches, and the results are inconsistent with your brand voice.

Instead of the streamlined efficiency you hoped for, you're spending extra time editing generic AI outputs or fielding questions like "I don't really understand how this works" or "which tool should I use?"

Here's what's really happening: AI can absolutely transform your team's productivity and free up your time for strategy. But most AI training is built for technical audiences — not marketers who just want practical tools that help them create better content faster while maintaining their brand standards.

That's the gap I help bridge.

AI Training for Marketing & Sales Teams: No Technical Background Required

I help overwhelmed marketing and sales teams turn AI from "another thing to figure out" into the reliable workflow partner that actually reduces your workload.

Why Marketing and Sales Leaders Trust Me:

30 years in performance-based sales and marketing. I understand the pressure of hitting targets with limited resources (because results were literally my paycheck)

Co-author of The Wealthy Freelancer (Penguin/Random House) and creator of the High-Income Business Writing podcast (1.3M+ downloads; in the top 0.5% of podcasts globally)

Coached 400+ marketing professionals who were drowning in execution and needed practical systems that actually work

Developed frameworks specifically for non-technical teams. My students have increased content production by 60% while maintaining brand voice and reducing time spent on revisions

Since 2023, I've focused on one mission: making AI genuinely useful for marketers that need relief, not more complexity. Not the AI you read about in tech blogs — the AI that helps your team create better content in half the time so you can finally focus on strategy instead of constantly putting out fires.

From Sales Pro to Marketing AI Trainer & Coach

I didn't start in AI or even in marketing. I started in corporate sales where my commission check depended entirely on closing deals.

When I didn't have the materials I needed fast enough, I created my own. I wrote dozens of lead generation campaigns that consistently brought in business. As my sales numbers climbed, I realized something important: effective content was my competitive advantage.

In 2004, I started writing copy on the side. By 2006, this "hobby" was generating more business than I could handle, so I left my corporate sales job to freelance full-time.

Over the next six years, I became an in-demand B2B copywriter in the software industry. I co-wrote a bestselling book, launched a popular podcast, and coached hundreds of marketing professionals who were struggling with the same challenge I once faced: doing more with less while maintaining quality.

“Ed isn't just a surface-level trainer—he's a deeply experienced AI student and master craftsman… Out of the hundreds of AI resources and teachers out there, Ed emphasizes a combination of mindset, strategy, and tactical implementation. Do not miss an opportunity to work with him.”

Why I Focus on AI for Non-Technical Teams

When generative AI emerged, I immediately saw both its potential and the real obstacles overwhelmed marketing teams were facing.

While tech blogs were celebrating AI's capabilities, I was hearing a different story from marketers:

"We're drowning in content requests and thought AI would help, but we're spending more time editing than creating"
"Half my team won't touch AI because they think it's too complicated"
"We tried ChatGPT but the outputs sound generic and off-brand"
"I feel like I'm managing a bunch of random AI experiments instead of a cohesive strategy"
"Leadership expects AI to solve our bandwidth problem, but no one taught us how to actually use it"

These aren't technology problems. They're workflow, training, and confidence problems.

I've seen talented marketing professionals paralyzed by AI complexity when what they really need are simple, proven frameworks they can implement immediately. They don't need to become AI experts — they need AI to become their reliable workflow partner.

My approach focuses on strategic integration, not tool mastery. I help teams implement AI within clear, practical workflows that maintain brand voice while dramatically reducing the time spent on repetitive tasks.

Here's the transformation I help teams achieve:

Instead of working 60-hour weeks just to keep up with content demands, your team can leave the office on time with everything under control.

Instead of being stuck in execution mode, you'll finally have the bandwidth to focus on high-level strategy and creative campaigns that move the needle.

And instead of taking days or weeks to produce quality content, your team can create it in hours — without sacrificing the brand voice and standards that matter to your business.

Ready to see how my no-jargon, results-focused approach can transform your team's workflow? Let's talk.

“Ed has been a huge help in teaching me how to use AI for my freelance writing business… His passion for mastering AI is clear, and he's always coming out with new ideas. AI will only become more important for our industry. Ed can help you master this new technology.”
— David Rodeck, New York, NY

Stop Managing AI Chaos—Start Seeing Real Results

Finally, AI training that reduces your team's workload instead of adding to it.

You've invested in AI tools hoping they'd solve your content bottleneck. Instead, you're dealing with scattered adoption, inconsistent outputs, and team members asking "Am I doing this right?"

Meanwhile, your content calendar is still overflowing, deadlines are still tight, and you're spending more time editing AI outputs than you'd like to admit.

Here's the reality: AI can absolutely transform your team's productivity and free up your time for strategy. But only when everyone knows how to use it systematically — not randomly.

That's exactly what my “AI Advantage for Teams” program delivers.
