Marketing has always been one of the hardest parts of running a small business. Creating content, sending emails, posting on social media, running ads, and tracking results takes time — and mistakes can be expensive.
But in 2025, AI-driven marketing tools are making everything easier. These tools run on the same cloud-based intelligence engines discussed in the AI-Driven Financial Recommendation Engine Report (INTERNAL LINK #1 — previous category).
AI helps small businesses attract more customers, write better content, and automate the work that used to take hours.
