Let's Talk About Marketing That Actually Works (WITHOUT THE FLUFF!)

April 02, 20252 min read

Ever have one of those days? You know, the ones where you're juggling email sequences, trying to keep up with social media, responding to leads through your CRM, maybe even tweaking the website... and suddenly it's 5 PM and you wonder where the real strategic thinking time went?

Yeah, we've been there. Running a business and making sure your marketing actually connects with people is demanding. There's just so much to do, and honestly, a lot of it feels like Groundhog Day – the same repetitive tasks over and over.

Here at Strohm Media, we’ve always aimed to give you solid tools to manage the chaos – our CRM platform handles the email, SMS, social, website stuff, forms, reviews, the whole nine yards. But we're constantly looking at the landscape, figuring out what really helps businesses move forward, not just tread water.

And lately, we've seen a massive shift. We realized that those repetitive tasks? The ones that drain your energy? They're exactly what smart technology can handle, freeing you up for the stuff that requires your actual brainpower and creativity.

That's why we're genuinely excited about what we're doing next. We've partnered up with Automatable Flow to bring some serious intelligence – yes, AI-powered automation – into the mix.

Why now? Why AI?

Because it's ready for prime time, and frankly, it's becoming essential. Think about it:

  • Instead of manually sending follow-ups, imagine systems that intuitively know when and what to send based on how someone interacts with you.

  • Picture your audience getting sorted automatically, so your messages hit home without you spending hours building lists.

  • Consider getting crucial insights from your marketing data served up, rather than having to dig for them yourself.

This isn't about setting up complicated robots or losing the human touch. It's the opposite. It's about using smart automation to handle the grunt work so you have more time for meaningful conversations, clever campaigns, and building actual relationships. It’s technology serving people, not the other way around.

We know 'AI' can sound like a big, maybe even intimidating, buzzword. Our goal isn't just to throw tech at you. It's to help you weave these smart automation tools into what you're already doing with Strohm Media, making it practical, understandable, and focused on getting you tangible results. We're diving deep into this because we believe it’s the key to helping businesses like yours not just survive, but seriously thrive in the years ahead.

Getting this stuff integrated early is a game-changer. It's about building smarter systems now that will pay off big time down the road.

Curious how this could actually look for your business? Less time on tedious tasks, more time on growth?

We'd love to show you. Let's chat about how we can put AI-powered automation to work for you, making your marketing more effective and your life a little easier.
