Sara Nay is the CEO of Duct Tape Marketing, where she helps small businesses turn marketing strategy into scalable systems their teams can actually execute. Since 2010, she’s worked with thousands of business owners and fractional CMOs, blending big-picture strategy with scalable operations. A passionate trainer at heart, Sara’s mission is to empower others to lead from their zone of genius and build marketing teams that can actually get the work done.
Sara is also the author of Unchained: Breaking Free of Broken Marketing Models, with the mission to help small businesses take back ownership of their marketing, instead of renting it.
00:00 - 00:27 "AI is an incredible tool. It's still just a tool in my mind. It's an incredible tool if brought in correctly and strategically, and then if trained properly once brought in. And so for small businesses that are bringing in these AI solutions without thinking through those things or even knowing how to think through those things, they're ending up just creating more noise with stuff that they're doing in AI versus actually making that impact.” — Sara Nay
