"Unlike traditional AI, which works in a straightforward prompt-response loop, agentic AI acts more like a smart collaborator. It reasons through problems, utilizes the tools at its disposal and completes multi-step tasks to meet specific goals - often without requiring much assistance from you. No matter how complex your marketing setup is, these agentic systems tend to drive two things: better performance and greater efficiency."
"Start with what's easiest: driving efficiency For most global brands, the quickest wins with agentic AI come from efficiency-focused use cases. These don't change the nature of the work, but they significantly reduce the time it takes to complete it. Think about automating the manual stuff - building slides, auditing datasets, pulling reports - so teams can spend more time on strategy."
"AI-enabled competitor offer mapping: Instead of manually tracking the competition every week, agentic tools can scan platforms like Meta or YouTube to collect and organize competitor creatives. One global car brand used this approach to benchmark real-time campaign activity across key channels. Conversational analytics chatbots: These enable non-technical teams to ask questions about complex datasets using everyday language. No waiting on a data pull - just quick, helpful answers."
Agentic AI operates as a collaborator that reasons through problems, uses available tools and completes multi-step tasks to achieve goals with minimal human intervention. Efficiency-focused implementations deliver the fastest wins for global brands by automating manual work and reducing completion time. Practical use cases include competitor creative mapping across platforms, conversational analytics chatbots for non-technical dataset queries, and large-scale product feed audits to identify missing attributes or taxonomy issues. These implementations free teams to focus on strategy, are easy to measure, and provide clear proofs of concept for broader AI adoption across marketing operations.
