Harnessing the Power of AI to Transform the Agency Industry So, AI has created a real divide in the agency industry at the moment. Some believe it's the best thing to ever happen to us; others believe it's going to be the end of the agency industry within the next few months. Now, I don't think either of those people are wrong—neither of us truly knows what is going to happen. But I do believe that AI will completely change the way we work as agency owners forever, starting from today.

I think that those who adopt the tools available to us right now and don't shy away from this current technology will be the ones that are more efficient, make more money, and generally dominate their marketplace. So, today, I'm going to be running through a whole bunch of different AI tools that I've been playing around with myself that I think are really useful for agency owners right now. These tools will save you a ton of time.

AI: A Tool for Efficiency, Not a Total Solution I want to start off by saying that I believe that AI, as it is right now, isn’t an end-to-end solution. What it does is save us an awful lot of time on the things we are already doing within our agency.

It’s not going to completely change our service offering, but it’s going to make us much more efficient if we adopt it right now. For example, the first tool I want to show you is Merlin.ai. This tool allows us to use ChatGPT natively on the Google Chrome platform.

You can set up Auto DMs, generate lead lists, and even send personalized follow-ups automatically.

Personalizing Video Outreach with BeHuman.ai Another incredible tool is BeHuman.ai, an AI-based video personalization tool. This enables you to record a video once and then dynamically update names, product names, or other details to create personalized outreach videos at scale.

Branding Made Easy with BrandMark For new agency owners stuck on creating logos and branding, BrandMark offers a way to generate logos and brand concepts in minutes. It’s a great starting point for those who don’t have a graphic design background.
