"SMEs don’t need to outsource what AI can already deliver. With the right guardrails and training, marketing teams gain agency-level capability while protecting brand voice and compliance."

Adam Weston, CMO and AI Adoption Strategist

Bring agency-grade AI in-house

Agencies already use AI to replace junior tasks, such as content drafting, reporting and optimisation. SMEs don't need to buy that in. With the right advisory and enablement, your team can scale faster, cut costs and protect brand integrity.

How we deliver AI for Marketing

We provide advisory and enablement, not execution. Our role is to give your team the structure to adopt AI safely, protect brand voice and deliver measurable ROI.

Every engagement follows a proven DIVA™ framework:

  • Direction: Define goals, scope and the impact AI must deliver.
  • Inventory: Audit culture, skills, data and governance to set a clear baseline.
  • Vision: Establish objectives, priorities and ethical guardrails that align with business strategy.
  • Adoption: Pilot tools, workflows and scaling mechanisms that deliver measurable value.

This framework ensures AI marketing isn’t a collection of disconnected tools, but a governed process that strengthens credibility, safeguards compliance and proves commercial outcomes.

FAQs

Where should we start with AI in marketing?

Most leaders begin with a short impact assessment. It identifies the workflows where AI adds measurable value, without risking brand or compliance.

How do we avoid damaging our brand voice?

Unregulated AI use risks inconsistent tone and credibility loss. We design guardrails so content remains on-brand, compliant and trusted.

Will AI reduce costs or just add tools?

AI should shorten campaign cycles, improve targeting and optimise spend. We model ROI so that cost savings and performance gains are visible to finance leaders.

How fast can we prove value?

We typically show results in 4–8 weeks. Full adoption roadmaps run 6–12 months to embed AI across campaigns and workflows.

What risks should we watch for?

The main risks are compliance breaches, vendor lock-in, and fragmented adoption. We design policies and reporting frameworks to mitigate them.
