Key takeaways
- A pillar page on AI in marketing: how to design workflows, quality gates, and distribution loops without turning your content into noise
Table of Contents
Most AI marketing advice is about prompts. Prompts are the surface.
The real leverage is orchestration: a system that repeatedly produces useful work, with constraints, checks, and feedback.
This pillar explains the model and links to supporting essays.
The AI stack is a workflow
Think in loops, not tools:
- Research: collect inputs (SERP, forums, internal knowledge).
- Draft: generate structure first, then fill.
- QA: factual checks, duplication checks, style checks.
- Publish: ship.
- Learn: measure outcomes and update the system.
If your loop is weak, more tools will not help.

Quality gates: how you keep trust
AI makes it easy to publish. That means low quality scales faster than high quality.
A good system has gates:
- Is this specific, or generic?
- Is this consistent with what we said before?
- Does this add new information or a new model?
- Would a real expert sign their name under it?
If the answer is no, do not ship.
Distribution is still the bottleneck
AI changes creation. Distribution still decides outcomes.
If you only publish on your site, you are building a library with no doors.
The correct approach:
- Write one strong piece.
- Publish it.
- Repurpose it into 3-5 distribution formats (X thread, short post, newsletter, short video).
- Bring the best readers back to the pillar and topic hubs.

The simplest sustainable setup
If you want stability:
- One style guide.
- One outline template.
- One QA checklist.
- One distribution loop.
Everything else is optional.
