Send in The Robots: How AI Makes Content Creation Easier

(Snippits from our oh so popular Digital Glue Podcast!)

This older Digital Glue “untangling” podcast episode was a short n’ sweet one — piggybacking off the week’s prior topic: “Is Your Content Calendar Running On Empty?” …

When it comes to making content creation, AI “robots” can make your life a heck of a whole lot easier. And save you a ton of time too!

Did you know that by 2027, the AI market is expected to reach over $267 Billion?

WOWZERS!!!!

Data is power and when it comes to content creation, it can help you be more effective in the long run with all your efforts. With that being said, today I’m going to share with you a few simple ways you can use AI that will help streamline your content creation process. But before I dive into all that, here’s 8 benefits of AI content marketing

  1. Brand personalization
  2. Automating processes
  3. Content curation
  4. Topic generation
  5. Predicting audience behaviour
  6. Date review and processing
  7. Improving UE (user experience)
  8. Content creation scoring

Okay, so now that we know the top benefits, let’s dive right on into some tools, starting with content creation writing …

Just so you know … AI doesn’t just create content; it also helps give you insights that makes your content strategy more effective. And these types of content creation tools are especially useful for straightforward, simple content. A lot of times, it is easy for us to run low on ideas and “get fluffy” with our virtual creations which loses effectiveness — quickly! But using an AI tool can help you get it started if you find yourself with constant brain fog during your creative process. Especially when it comes to writing.

This alone can save you several hours as you bypass the dreaded writer’s block and get ready to kill that nightmare of a blinking cursor!

The question of whether AI can replace human creativity has raised anxiety among most professional writers these days. But the truth is that AI has its unique limitations. Creativity, passion, and empathy are strictly human traits that machines cannot replicate. (Thank gosh, am I right?!)

Human writers will always have a place in content creation because they alone can present an experience in the most thought-provoking, engaging way. 

Now keeping writing top of mind …

One tool that you can use is Quill, which is specifically designed to help you find the hidden potential of the data behind the writing. This happens by using everyday language which helps you engage with your readers on a deeper, more personal level. It helps by providing you with free writing and grammar activities starting with student levels, all the way up to teacher and administrators. By using this evidence-based strategy of sentence combining, you will be able to combine multiple ideas into a single sentence. Then receive instant feedback to help improve clarity and precision.

But if Quill doesn’t sound quite up your alley, there are many other sound options to better suit your content writing needs and working style!

I’ll ensure they’re all hyperlinked within the transcript of today’s episode …

 

Using an AI tool, no matter for writing, graphic creation, or even pre-scheduling those awesome social posts, is a great way you can work through the process of creating research specific content without having to do all the research by creating research-based statements –> without the work.

So, when it comes to creating content, AI can easily help you improve not only what you are creating, but the time you spend creating it by analyzing your current content and picking out places where there is room for improvement in order to gain the engagement you’re looking for. And, when everyone else is busy, it can also become a second eye. Using any number of online tools and platforms will easily help you improve readability, tone, visual appeal, and help you provide the right emotional human connection you truly want in your content.

Now I know we focused mainly on the writing portion of content creation. But only because it’s truly a very important aspect of your strategy.

Crystal is an artist, a writer, an organizer, a dreamer, a doer, and down-right proud of it NERD!.

Struck with a love for #AllThings creative at a very young age, Crystal dreamed of a life fueled by her passion for creating and bringing the stories and images in her mind into reality.

As she worked toward her dreams, she earned a diploma as a Computer Applications Specialist then another in Graphic Design and from there began to develop her extensive background in multimedia and the arts. She began her worked in the magazine industry as a layout designer and had a succession of design jobs thereafter. It was her role as a graphic/web designer that gave her the first real glimpse of her future. Soon she began a side job as a freelance designer while keeping one foot in the corporate world. A spark was lit! She turned her freelance gig into a full-time business combining design work with her other passion: creating organization from virtual chaos.

Crystal is one of the most organized individuals on the planet. She is by all means a Zen master of her crafts. She excels at helping others become “untangled” and provides her clients with tools to run their businesses smoothly while she takes care of the details behind the scenes. Thus Virtually Untangled was born. A successful business where her work as a top notch creative in graphic and web — with a twist of virtual assistant — married into one amazing place where clients can come with their virtual messes and become magically untangled. Crystal can always make sense of even the most unorganized chaos and offers a virtual detox of order and peace, so her clients can get busy doing the work that they love the most.
