Three small business owners on where AI helps their marketing, and where it does not

Business Insider· 2 Oct

Business Insider asked three small business owners how they use AI in marketing. A clothing brand founder uses ChatGPT or Claude to check ad setups and data but makes the final call. A coach says many Meta Ads Manager recommendations did not work for her. An investing platform CEO calls the tools a junior analyst but warns "you can't let the platform mark its own homework."

  • Before you follow an ad platform's AI suggestion to raise spend, write down which number it should move and check it two weeks later.
  • Use a general assistant such as ChatGPT or Claude to read your ad results, rather than only the tool made by the company selling you the ads.
