Robert Gillespie
25 years in marketing · Inc. columnist · 15,500+ readers
I've spent 25 years in marketing leading strategy, and the last few helping companies large and small actually put AI to work. It's why teams keep asking me back to run workshops around the world, why Inc. invited me to write on marketing with AI, and why thousands of marketers read me every week.
Each week I write up what's actually working, so you don't have to learn it the slow way.
I came in not sure what Claude could do beyond the chat mode I'd used in ChatGPT. But after I got to grips with Cowork, I left with three workflows I now use every week. Whatever corner of marketing you sit in, you'll walk away with things that genuinely fit how you work.
Nikki
Head of Marketing, SaaS
His marketing strategy and thought process was second to none. To this day, we're still executing the foundations he helped implement inside the business.
Gavin Speirs
CEO, Solutions Driven
His ability to distil my complex ideas into a compelling, straightforward narrative made a huge difference. Within months we saw significant growth in engagement from our ideal customers.
Kevin Austin
Founder & CEO, XLR8
I'd been treating Claude like a slightly better search engine. Robert showed me how to work with it properly, with files, context and connected tools, and my monthly report went from half a day to minutes.
Alison
Head of Marketing, Professional Services
Cowork was brand new to me. Robert gave us a clear way to structure everything. I went home, set it up that night, and had my campaign-brief workflow running by the end of that day.
Adrian
Brand Manager, Agency
He spent time upskilling the marketers in my team in AI, analytics and copywriting. Much of my success would not have been possible without Robert.
Gordon Cameron
Head of Marketing
Robert's AI Accelerator gave me the clarity and confidence to start using AI more effectively. His up-to-date knowledge and approach made all the difference.
Ashleigh Walker
Prospect 13
I left having built my first reusable Skill, a brand-voice checker I now run everything through.
Andrew
Content Marketing Manager, SaaS
Whether you're just getting started or ready to scale, let's have a conversation about what's possible.
