Executive Brief

Business Problem Solved

Marketing teams are experimenting with generative AI for content, but usually in an ad‑hoc way that ignores marketing theory and lacks rigorous measurement. This work proposes a design system that structures how generative AI is used in marketing and evaluates its impact empirically, so teams can move from random AI experiments to repeatable, evidence‑based campaign design.

Value Drivers

Faster creative and campaign design using AI-generated contentHigher campaign performance via theory‑guided prompts and structuresReduced creative and testing costs through automation and standardizationBetter decision quality by grounding AI use in empirical evidence instead of hype

Strategic Moat

A theory-driven design framework plus empirical results that can be embedded into a marketing organization’s processes (playbooks, templates, prompt libraries, and evaluation protocols) and improved over time with proprietary campaign data.

Differentiation Factor

Instead of being another generic ‘AI for marketing’ tool, this work formalizes how generative AI should be designed and evaluated in marketing using theory and controlled experiments, which is attractive to large advertisers and agencies that need methodological rigor rather than one-off AI tricks.
