^^ How these three awesome companies discovered simple ways to grow without hiring more (or any) salespeople

Hi, I'm Alex.
I consult on, think and write about marketing and technology. Engineer turned marketer, I'm interested in how artificial intelligence and machine learning are changing the way products are promoted and sold.
I have served as CTO or CMO (full-time or fractional) on the executive teams of several technology companies. For our agency clients, my team and I have become the outsourced marketing department they can rely on.

COrnerstone Principles of AI-Based MArketing
1. He who has the most data, wins
Having data has always been an advantage. Now it's become life-and-death important.
In the past, you needed data to support business decision-making and to have something to put in your reports for management and investors. Today, you need a lot more data, and faster, to "train" the AI so that it will "know" how to help you amplify your marketing.
2. Wrong data is worse than no data
What would happen if you were to load the wrong map into your self-driving vehicle? (If you had one today, of course.) Nothing good, obviously.
Well, give bad data to the AI and see what it does to your business. I promise you, you won't like it.
3. Let AI drive where it's best, let humans do the rest
AI is becoming smarter and more capable of abundance of things at an increasingly rapid pace. Every time we say to ourselves, "A computer will never be able to do that," shortly after, a computer does whatever that is, and almost invariably better than a human
On the other hand, there are still important tasks and decisions requiring human operator.

Grab a Coffee, HAve a Read
We put together three case studies of three different software companies that grew their user base / revenue / community without hiring, training, or managing a small army of salespeople (which would be a traditional approach.)
Growth is easier and faster when you can provide value to your users before they put their first dollar into your software.
Go ahead, it's free... should be within most people's budgets :-)
