You've got your AI trained with your brand voice and messaging, but you're still just using it to write social posts. (Sound familiar?) But what if you could actually use AI as a brainstorming partner?

If you did the foundation work from last week's episode, your AI actually knows your business well enough to help you think through bigger challenges.

In this episode, we explore how to brainstorm strategically with AI—not just content topics, but messaging angles, audience concerns, and potential blind spots in your approach. 

And don't worry, I also cover AI's significant limitations that most people ignore, like its built-in biases and tendency to tell you what you want to hear. The goal is using AI to think more thoroughly while staying in control of all strategic decisions.

You in? Great, let's start talking copy.
