  • A prioritised list of pilots with KPIs
  • Practical playbooks and prompts for campaigns and sales motions



Phase 2: 30-Day Implementation Sprint

What You’ll Gain
  • Practical insights into AI applications for sales and marketing
  • A tailored roadmap and implementation plan
  • Expert guidance to validate and scale your AI solution
  • Access to a network of innovators and mentors

Phase 1: 2‑Day Expert Workshop (In‑person) - 3-4 February 2026

Diagnose, design, and de‑risk your AI opportunities in sales & marketing.

What we’ll cover:

  • Challenge Diagnostic: Map your top 3 sales/marketing blockers (e.g., lead quality, CAC, conversion drop‑offs, churn, attribution).
  • Data & Tools Audit: Assess CRM/marketing automation readiness (data quality, integrations, compliance).
  • AI Use‑Case Design: Prioritise high‑impact use cases (quick wins vs. strategic bets).
  • Experiment Plans: Define 2–3 pilots with KPIs, guardrails, timelines, and ownership.


Workshop Outcomes (you’ll leave with):

  • A clear AI roadmap focused on sales & marketing outcomes
  • A pilot backlog with defined success metrics (e.g., MQL→SQL conversion, pipeline velocity, retention uplift)
  • A stack recommendation (tools, integrations, and governance)
  • Personalised prompts/playbooks for your team (copy, campaigns, sales motions, reporting)



Phase 2: 30‑Day Implementation Sprint (with expert support)

Selected companies receive 1 day of 1:1 guidance to deploy the tools and deliver measurable results—within 30 days.


What we’ll do together:

  • Set up and integrate selected AI tools
  • Build dashboards and automated workflows
  • Run A/B tests and iterate weekly
  • Track impact against KPIs (e.g., cost per lead, conversion rate, LTV, time‑to‑close)



Event Photos


  • Lead quality & volume: Too many unqualified leads; rising CPL
  • Pipeline conversion drop‑offs: Stalled deals or slow cycle times
  • Attribution & ROI clarity: Difficulty proving what’s working
  • Content velocity & consistency: Slow, ad‑hoc campaign production
  • Personalisation at scale: One‑size‑fits‑all messaging underperforming
  • Customer retention & upsell: Churn risk and missed expansion opportunities
  • Pricing & forecasting: Guesswork instead of data‑driven decisions
  • Team bandwidth: Limited time to test and adopt new tools




Event Photos


  • Practical insights into AI applications that move core metrics (CPL, CAC, CVR, LTV, churn)
  • A clear, prioritised roadmap to integrate AI into your sales & marketing operations
  • Expert support to design, pilot, and validate your AI solution
  • Reusable assets: prompts, templates, dashboards, and QA checklists
  • Access to a network of innovators, mentors, and peer learning
