How can embracing AI elevate your marketing without losing the fundamentals?
In this episode of Connect To Market, host Casey Cheshire welcomes Nick Talbert, VP of Growth & Marketing at BRIA.AI, to explore how AI can transform marketing execution while still honoring the core principles that drive real results.

The opportunity lies in using AI to scale strategically while keeping messaging aligned with what truly matters to buyers.
He shares why marketers must train AI tools like a new team member by equipping them with brand voice, audience knowledge, and clear guidelines to ensure consistency and quality. From building the right messaging foundations to creating strong human feedback loops, Nick explains how marketers can use AI to accelerate content without sacrificing strategy or creativity. He also highlights the importance of curiosity, agility, and experimentation in staying competitive as marketing continues to evolve.
In this episode, we cover:
- Why automation alone doesn’t fix marketing bottlenecks
- How to train AI with brand knowledge and audience insights
- Why governance and human creativity are essential in AI workflows
- How curiosity drives more effective, innovative marketing
