    AI-Proof Marketer: The #1 Marketing Skill that Matters Even When Everything Is Automated

    AI can design your ads, build your funnels, and optimize your campaigns. So what's left for marketers to do? Everything that actually matters. AI is eating execution, but it can't fix your positioning. It can't define your strategy. It can't understand what your customers actually care about or why they'd choose you over a competitor. When every company has access to the same AI tools generating content at the same speed, strategy becomes your only real differentiator. In this episode, Kevin Barber breaks down the human skills that survive in an AI-saturated world. He walks through what gets automated, what stays irreplaceably human, and the new skill stack CMOs need to build to lead AI-powered marketing teams.

    Fixing the Last Mile: Why Most AI Fails at Execution (And How to Fix It)

    Most companies don't have an AI problem: They have a shipping problem. AI generates content in seconds. But somehow, it still takes your team weeks (or never) to publish anything.

In this episode, Kevin Barber breaks down the places AI execution dies inside companies. He walks through what an AI-first workflow actually looks like, how to diagnose where your outputs are getting stuck, and the leadership changes needed to unlock shipping velocity. If your team generates AI work but struggles to ship it, this episode is your blueprint.
