I did a search and couldn't find any threads on this but was wondering if anyone else had looking into AI marketing? I am not going to pretend to understand it, it appears to be some kind of bot which uses your money to place ads (not sure where!) and you get the commission for it? I came across a guy on tiktok talking about it, have linked to his youtube here for those who don't have tiktok

I have joined the discord server that this guy is involved with and read a fair bit from others getting involved and it seems like they ARE making money from it, just a bit sceptical and was wondering what other people think about it.

If you google AI Marketing there are trust pilot reviews for a company that are bad, but I am not sure that is the same thing as this is (helpful I know!) so just wondering if anyone has any more knowledge than me on this?

Thanks in advance.

As soon as I hear 'We have so many people making money' at the start I become a bit worried

@The Reverend may like to cast his eye on this

Thanks Jon, I have done some more research this morning and it seems to be a 50/50 split with people saying its a ponzi scheme and the rest saying its genuine :unsure:

His video (when you look at the youtube video) has his referral link for signing up so I would guess he is being overly positive to push for new signups imo

So lets break this down.

1) You pay everything
2) 'AI' decides where your ads go
3) You get a commission on purchases made.

Part 1 - You Pay Everything

What are you paying for? Adverts on websites? You can do that without the 'AI'.

Part 2 - 'AI' decides where your ads go

This is literally Google's business model? Do you think someone who isn't Ian Google created an AI better than Ian Google's? Why does the AI decide?

Part 3 - You get a commission on purchases made

Sounds reasonable but remember, you've paid for the advert anyway, so what 'commission' are you actually getting?

____________

Where does the 'AI' get paid?

If I had to guess the AI gets paid in 2 parts

a) a 'cut' of your advertising spend
b) a 'cut' of the commission (either your commission OR a separate hidden commission)

There is also a possible 3rd way which is payments from the product owner to be 'included' in the ad network.

______________

Is it worth it?

As always, with things like this, I tend to think "If your product is so good and makes so much money, what do you need ME for?". Generally the truth around this is 'I need you so that I can earn a hefty referral commission/affiliate commission as that is the only place where anyone actually makes money from this'.

_________________

Is it a scam?

Thems be fighting words. But generally, yes. Really. When you realise that Discords and Telegrams and other 'busy communities' can be set up with just an email address or a telephone number, you understand that these can be stopped/deleted and a new one set up tomorrow with very little you could do about it.

Don't believe the screenshots.
Don't believe the 'Instagram Lifestyle'.
Don't believe what the strangers on a discord/telegram/facebook group tell you.

______________

What can you do?

Ignore the AI and what you have is 'buying adverts to get an affiliate commission'. Just do this. Read up online and see what could work for you. But also see what you could actually earn. If you wanted you could take this a step further and become a drop shipper/virtual brand using the same techniques. You'll also get to keep 100% of the commission and have actual control of the advertising spend. If you want to see very intelligent advert control (not AI, but you'll realise AI isn't as useful as you'd think) then head over to facebook where if you have a group on there it will offer to 'promote' your group for 'x' cost. Have a play at your options and see how detailed you can make the targetted ads. It is insane!

Even though the post might be a bit dated, AI in marketing is still a hot topic. Speaking of which, I recently came across Athina Digital, a professional SEO agency that's been doing some fantastic work integrating AI into their strategies. If you're into exploring AI-powered marketing or need top-notch SEO services, you might want to check out what they offer at https://www.athinadigital.co.uk/professional-seo-agency/. They might have some fresh insights and tools to share, even if the post is from a couple of years ago!
