AI Is Reshaping Marketing Faster Than Most Teams Can Adapt


The AI revolution in marketing isn't coming. It's here.


And the gap between marketers who understand how to leverage AI and those still figuring it out is widening rapidly.


Kathleen Ross, Keynote Speaker and Fractional CMO at Kathleen Ross Creative, will emcee the DSN Marketing Deep Dive and host an extended workshop designed to close that gap—fast.


*DSN Deep Dive Events are exclusively designed for and limited to active corporate direct selling executive employees. Registration is FREE.


Why an Extended Workshop?


This isn't a 20-minute overview of AI buzzwords. Kathleen is dedicating extended time to ensure you leave with more than inspiration—you'll leave with implementation.


Her workshop format is designed to deliver:


  • Actionable Strategies

    Not theory. Not someday. Strategies you can deploy immediately.

  • Real-World Examples

    See how direct selling companies are actually using AI right now to drive results.

  • Confidence to Execute

    Overcome the intimidation factor and gain the confidence to leverage AI in your marketing stack.


What You'll Learn


Current AI Trends Reshaping Marketing

Kathleen will cut through the noise to show you what's actually working right now and what's on the horizon. You'll understand which AI tools deserve your attention and which are still immature.


From generative content creation to predictive analytics, from personalization at scale to automated campaign optimization—Kathleen will show you the landscape as it exists today, not as it was described in last year's webinar.


Practical Applications for Direct Selling

Generic AI advice doesn't work in direct selling. Compliance matters. Field empowerment matters. Brand consistency across thousands of independent representatives matters.


Kathleen will demonstrate how to integrate AI tools into your daily marketing operations while respecting the unique dynamics of the direct selling model.


What's Next in AI Marketing: 2026 and Beyond

AI is evolving rapidly. What works today might be obsolete in six months—or might become the foundation of your competitive advantage for the next decade.


Kathleen will help you develop the judgment to separate signal from noise, to invest wisely and to stay ahead of the curve as technology continues to evolve. Understanding AI marketing 2026 trends means preparing for both immediate implementation and long-term strategic positioning.


What You'll Learn

Whether you're AI-curious or already experimenting, Kathleen's workshop will meet you where you are and push you forward.


  • If you're just getting started, you'll gain clarity on where to begin and how to avoid costly mistakes.

  • If you're already using AI tools, you'll discover advanced applications and optimization strategies to multiply your impact.


AI isn't optional anymore. The question isn't whether to use it—it's how to use it strategically, responsibly and effectively.
