22: How to Use AI as Your CFO, CMO + COO (Even if You’re a Team of One)
Most entrepreneurs are amazing at what they do, but when it comes to making big strategic business decisions, they're flying blind. You know you need that C-suite level thinking, but you can't afford a six-figure CMO or even a fractional one at $5,000 a month. What if you could build your own AI-powered executive team instead?
In this episode, Erika breaks down exactly how to create strategic AI advisors that think like seasoned executives and are available 24/7 for the cost of your monthly AI subscription. But here's the key: this only works if you have a solid strategic foundation first.
Key Strategic Roles Your AI Team Can Fill:
AI CFO (Chief Financial Officer)
Run financial scenario modeling before major decisions
Analyze pricing strategies and identify money left on the table
Project cash flow for investments and planning
Provide gut checks on business expenses and growth investments
AI CMO (Chief Marketing Officer)
Develop market positioning strategies based on competitive analysis
Plan and optimize campaign timelines and messaging
Map customer journeys and identify conversion gaps
Think beyond tactics to actual strategic marketing that drives results
AI COO (Chief Operating Officer)
Analyze workflows and identify automation opportunities
Streamline processes that are eating up your time
Plan team structure and hiring priorities based on bottlenecks
Help eliminate low-value activities that could be delegated
AI Strategic Advisor
Assess risks and mitigation strategies for major pivots
Evaluate growth opportunities and business model changes
Challenge your assumptions and identify blind spots
Provide systems-level thinking for complex decisions
The Foundation Requirement
Remember: AI can't create strategy from nothing. It amplifies and refines the strategy you give it. Without clarity on your brand positioning, ideal client, unique value proposition, and business goals, your AI advisors will give you generic advice that sounds smart but doesn't move your business forward.
When You Need Human Experts
Use AI advisors as your first line of strategic thinking to get 70-80% of the way to a decision. Then bring in human experts for legal compliance, complex financial planning, industry-specific regulations, and crisis management requiring immediate human judgment.
Ready to stop making gut decisions and start building strategic systems that amplify your genius? The future belongs to women who think bigger about what's possible.
Get Started: Pick one area where you're struggling with strategic decisions and set up a basic AI advisor using Erika's prompting framework. Push it to go deeper if you're not getting the insights you need.
