AI Q&A Series
Can AI really write better than a human?
Not always — but often faster. AI tools like ChatGPT can generate clear, engaging content in seconds. But they still rely on your direction, tone, and creativity. Think of it as your overachieving assistant, not your replacement.
Will AI take over all marketing jobs?
Nope! AI is great at automation, data analysis, and writing — but it lacks emotional intelligence, humor, and personal connection (unless you program it to talk like Ms. Frizzle). Your creativity, empathy, and brand voice still matter a lot.
How do I get started with AI in my business?
Start small! Use AI for:
Writing blog outlines
Generating ad copy
Brainstorming social posts
Automating emails
No need to overhaul everything — let it be your productivity buddy first.
Is AI safe to use?
For the most part, yes — but you need to be smart about it. Don’t paste sensitive info into public tools, and always double-check facts. AI isn’t evil, it just doesn’t know when it’s being confidently wrong.
What’s the difference between ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity?
ChatGPT is great at personality + conversation.
Claude is very ethical and polite.
Perplexity is like Google with better manners.
They’re all useful depending on your needs. I personally love a little tool trio.
My name is Melissa. I am a teacher. I am a digital marketer.
I started teaching professionally 8 years ago. Special education is my jam and it will be a sad day when I leave teaching. But it is clearly time to go. As I have been pursuing new options, digital marketing is the one thing that continues to pop up as an intriguing benefit to my future self.
I always put in the effort up front—because I know the end result I’m after: working less, earning more, and creating residual income. And the best part? I still get to help people. That’s always been my “why.” If there’s no passion or purpose in what I’m doing, what’s the point?
At first, I wasn’t sure if I’d find that in the world of marketing. But I’m not wondering anymore. I know I can bring real value to business owners—and I can’t wait to do exactly that.
So, I have one more year of teaching, one more year of value to bring my kids, and then my value high jumps to the grownups who want to make some serious changes in their lives. People who decided to start a business and actually grow that business. I'm here to bring them customers and keep them growing. Businesses aren't just about making money, they are about bringing life back to the things you value.
If I can show you how to get your life back then I've been successful in reaching my goals. You shouldn't have to be overworked, underpaid, and exhausted every night just trying to make a living. You should be enjoying your living. And we're in a time where we can be doing just that. Where AI has shown up and said, "let me help you with that." So, I'm going to organize this blog in such a way (with Chattalina) that you can use these skills as well and benefit from AI like I do everyday. Enjoy.
