ABOUT THIS EPISODE

If you are a repeat listening friend of the show then welcome back! As always, I am super thrilled you have chosen me to be in your ear wherever you are. And as you know, this show is now inching its way towards the two-year mark and I am just amazed at how this show has progressed since episode one.
I often joke about this now, but I cringe when I listen to the first 30 or 40 episodes. I was a nervous wreck behind the mic, often times sweating profusely underneath my armpits.
But today I am much more relaxed and comfortable behind the mic and having fun. I have also made a lot of improvements to the show since the first episode, so I imagine more will take place as the show continues to evolve.
So before I give a quick primer of what to expect for today’s exciting show, if you can do me a huge favor and show your support by subscribing to my podcast on your podcast player so you can be alerted of new episodes each week.

If you do leave me a review, then do me a huge favor and let me know on social media. I am mostly active on Instagram at TheCreativeMarketingZone, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook. You can also email me directly at Eric@TheCreativeMarketingZone.com and I will be sure to give you a special shout out.
Alright guys, today I am super thrilled to bring on Magnus Unemyr who is an inbound marketing and automation specialist, non-fiction author, and speaker. He is the author of Data Driven Marketing with Artificial Intelligence: Harness the Power of Predictive Marketing and Machine Learning. Magnus is also big on talking about how the Internet of Things (IoT) can drive marketing automation logic.
Over the past couple of years, Magnus’s focus has been creating state-of-the-art marketing strategies using some of the world’s most advanced automation tools. We are actually going to learn more today from Magnus on what these tools are, how they work, examples and results, and actionable tips to ensure the right systems are in place to help you drive real results.
We are also going to learn more about the power of AI and machine learning, and how this can affect your business in 2019 and beyond.
Now I am a big proponent of modern technology, and I don’t know about you, but sometimes I get intimidated when I have to learn a new platform, especially if I know ahead of time that it may require a huge learning curve.
Marketing as we all know has become more aligned with sales these days, and the tools Magnus will be discussing on today’s episode are designed to help us in this realm. They are also here to help us learn more about our ideal customers, the type of messages to send and how we can create and capture a better user experience.
I say all of this to say that we shouldn’t let modern technology stop us in our tracks. Use what’s out there that can help you grow your business to the next level and implement these systems one-step at a time – believe me, just a simple 1% effort each day adds up!
