It's Simple: If They Can't Understand It,
They Won't Read It.

Marketing writing is everywhere. But if your message isn't clear, your audience won't spend time figuring out what you meant. They're busy—and they'll look for answers elsewhere.

That's why your writing needs to be easy to read and easy to understand.

Writing clearly enhances your ability to communicate ideas. But it's not a natural skill for most people.

However, it is a skill you can develop!

At Marketing Writing Bootcamp, ten writers spill their secrets to clear, effective writing. Discover how to clarify your content, polish your product descriptions, upgrade your UX, and more. You'll wrap this series with new ways to write that you'll use every day for the rest of your career.

Cut the confusion and sharpen your skills. Join us at Marketing Writing Bootcamp!

Transforming Writing for Businesses With AI, presented by Bruce Clay Inc.

Speaker: Bruce Clay

Overview

Join us for an enlightening opening session on how AI tools are reshaping how we write.

AI is often touted as a revolutionary service, promising near-instant document preparation and automated content creation. But it's crucial to understand that while AI can assist you in drafting and optimizing content, it's still a tool—not a complete solution. While AI can streamline and enhance the writing process, human expertise is indispensable for crafting truly effective and engaging material.

In this webinar, SEO pioneer Bruce Clay will explore the practical applications of AI content tools, from persona identification and keyword selection to broad topic research and pre-writing stages. You'll learn how AI can accelerate the mechanics of content creation, reducing the time from hours to minutes and leaving writers to focus on what humans do best— refining voice, style, and compliance. He'll also discuss using AI to create a polished final product, including multimedia and formatting.

You'll learn...

  • How AI can be a powerful ally in producing high-quality writing efficiently
  • How to use AI for competitor analysis, keyword optimization, and content enhancement
  • How AI can serve as an invaluable assistant in your content workflow, offering tools to manage and optimize various content types—from articles and emails to videos and presentations
