The Agentic Marketer: AI marketing book for building AI agents and marketing automation
The Shift Happening Right Now

Most marketers are using AI at 5% of its potential. This book helps you unlock the other 95%.

You’ve used ChatGPT to write a blog post draft. Maybe you’ve experimented with AI image tools or had Claude help with an email. That’s a good start. But it’s the equivalent of buying a smartphone and only using it to make phone calls.

The real power of AI for marketers isn’t in one-off prompts. It’s in building systems that do the marketing for you. Content engines that produce, optimize, and publish on schedule. Email sequences that adapt based on reader behavior. Social media agents that create, post, and engage across platforms without you touching them.

This is what “agentic marketing” means: AI agents that plan, execute, and iterate on marketing tasks autonomously. Google, Salesforce, and Oracle are all building enterprise-level agentic marketing tools. The Agentic Marketer shows you how to build the same capabilities for yourself, your clients, or your business today.

Content takes too long

You’re spending hours on research, outlining, writing, and editing every piece. An AI content engine handles 80% of this and lets you focus on strategy and quality control.

Email is on autopilot (the bad kind)

Your email sequences were set up once and haven’t been touched. AI email marketing automation adapts in real time based on engagement, segments, and behavior.

Social media is a time drain

Posting consistently across platforms feels like a second job. Social media AI agents handle content creation, scheduling, and engagement drafts.

You know AI can do more, but where to start?

The gap between “I use ChatGPT” and “AI runs my marketing” feels massive. This book bridges it week by week with things you actually build.

What You’ll Build

How to build AI marketing agents (even with zero coding experience)

Every chapter ends with a working system. Not a concept. Not a slide deck. Something running in your marketing stack that saves you time starting the week you build it.

Weeks 1 — 3

AI Development Environment and Automation

Set up Claude Code, n8n, MCPs, and your complete AI toolkit. Build your first automated workflow (the Content Brief Generator), deploy your site on Vercel, and connect email capture and payments.

Week 4

Digital Product Creation

Choose, validate, and build your first digital product using AI. Use the two-hour validation framework, then let Claude Code handle the heavy lifting while your expertise is the quality filter.

Weeks 5 — 6

Launch Infrastructure and Content Engine

Build your landing page, lead magnet funnel, welcome sequence, and purchase flow. Then build a keyword-driven content pipeline in n8n that produces articles automatically.

Weeks 7 — 8

Social Media and Email Automation

Set up content repurposing for LinkedIn and Twitter/X, build your weekly newsletter workflow, then create four advanced email sequences: follow-up, post-purchase, launch, and upsell. All orchestrated through n8n.

Weeks 9 — 10

Analytics, Optimization, and Scaling

Build your analytics dashboard and the Monday Morning Briefing workflow. Design your product ladder, plan your second product, optimize pricing, and model what scaling actually looks like.

Weeks 11 — 12

Advanced AI Agents and Career Leverage

Build multi-step agent workflows with Claude Code and MCPs. Implement the human-in-the-loop principle. Document your portfolio of proof and position yourself professionally with your new skill set.

198 pages of implementation, not theory. Every workflow has been built and tested by the author.

Inside the Book

Complete chapter-by-chapter breakdown

The Agentic Marketer follows the “describe, don’t code” principle. You tell the AI what to build using natural language. The AI handles the technical implementation. You make the strategic decisions.

Phase 1

Foundations (Weeks 1 — 3)

Install your AI development environment: terminal, Node.js, Python, VS Code, Claude Code. Build your first marketing tool in your first session. Set up n8n and build the Content Brief Generator workflow. Learn APIs and MCPs. Deploy your site on Vercel, connect email capture and payment processing. By week 3, you have a live website, working automations, and an AI toolkit most marketers won’t have for years.

Phase 2

Build and Automate (Weeks 4 — 8)

Choose and validate a digital product idea, then build it with AI. Create your landing page, lead magnet funnel, and welcome sequence. Launch and get your first sales. Build a keyword-driven content engine in n8n. Set up social media automation for LinkedIn and Twitter/X with content repurposing. Create four advanced email sequences orchestrated through n8n. By week 8, your entire marketing system runs on about one hour of oversight per week.

Phase 3

Scale and Systematize (Weeks 9 — 12)

Build your analytics dashboard and the Monday Morning Briefing workflow. Design your product ladder and plan your second product. Build advanced AI agents with Claude Code and MCP, implement multi-agent orchestration, and apply the human-in-the-loop principle. Document your portfolio of proof and position yourself for career leverage. By week 12, you’re operating a full business system with AI agents handling execution while you focus on strategy.

How This Book Is Different

This isn’t another AI marketing guide full of screenshots and prompt lists.

There are dozens of resources on using AI for marketing. Blog posts, YouTube videos, courses, other books. Most of them teach you how to prompt ChatGPT for various outputs. That’s useful, but it keeps you as the bottleneck. You’re still doing the marketing. You’re just doing it faster.

The Agentic Marketer teaches you how to build the systems that do the marketing for you. The difference is architecture vs. execution. Prompting is execution. Building agents, automations, and workflows is architecture.

Typical AI Marketing Guide The Agentic Marketer

Coding required Sometimes No. Describe, don’t code.

Tools and Platforms

Build marketing workflows with AI tools you can start using today

The book covers specific tools, not abstract concepts. You’ll work with:

AI Platforms: Claude Code (your primary builder), Claude, and ChatGPT. When to use each, how to prompt each, and how to connect them to automated workflows via APIs and MCPs.

Automation: n8n (open source, free, visual workflow builder) for connecting your AI tools to your marketing stack. Vercel for website hosting. Kit (ConvertKit) for email marketing. LemonSqueezy for digital product sales.

No paid enterprise tools required. Everything in this book can be built with free or low-cost tools. The entire marketing stack described runs on tools most marketers already have access to.

Learn AI marketing automation at your own pace, regardless of technical skill.

✓ Built for you if:

You’re willing to invest 10 focused hours per week for 12 weeks
You want a structured guide for building AI marketing agents, not random tips
You prefer learning by building over reading theory

✗ Not the right fit if:

You want a list of ChatGPT prompts to copy and paste
You want strategy frameworks without implementation
You need someone else to build and maintain your systems
You’re looking for enterprise-level solutions (Salesforce, HubSpot AI, etc.)
You’re not willing to experiment and iterate as AI tools evolve
You think AI in marketing is a trend that will pass

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before buying

Do I need coding experience to use this book?

No. The entire book is built on the “describe, don’t code” principle. You tell AI tools what to build using natural language. The book walks you through exactly what to say, how to evaluate the output, and how to connect everything into automated workflows using visual tools like n8n.

What AI tools do I need?

At minimum, you need access to Claude or ChatGPT (free tiers work for most chapters). For the automation sections, you’ll use n8n (free, open source). The complete stack covered in the book costs less than $50/month, and many components are free.

How is this different from AI marketing courses on Udemy or YouTube?

Most courses teach you how to use individual AI tools better. This book teaches you how to connect those tools into autonomous systems that run without you. The focus is on architecture and automation, not one-off prompts. It’s also structured as a 12-week build program, not a collection of disconnected tutorials.

What if the AI tools change after the book is published?

The book teaches principles and patterns, not just button clicks. The core workflow architecture (research, create, distribute, optimize, report) stays consistent regardless of which specific AI model you use. When a new model launches, you swap it into the same workflows. The 2026 Edition reflects the latest tool capabilities as of publication.

Is this only for marketers?

The book is designed for anyone doing marketing, whether that’s your job title or not. Founders, freelancers, solopreneurs, side-project builders, agency owners, and marketing managers will all find applicable material. If you promote anything online, the frameworks apply.

How long does it take to see results?

You’ll have working systems by the end of week 1. The book is structured so each phase builds on the last. By week 3, you’ll have a live website, email funnel, and your first automated workflow. By week 12, you’ll have a marketing operation that runs with a few hours of oversight per week.

What’s the difference between the Kindle, paperback, and PDF versions?

Same content in all three. Kindle ($7.99) and PDF ($7.99) are digital. Paperback ($19.99) is a physical copy. The PDF is available direct from our site and is DRM-free, meaning you can read it on any device.

What is agentic marketing?

Agentic marketing is a marketing approach where AI agents autonomously plan, execute, and optimize marketing tasks. Instead of prompting an AI for one output at a time, you build agents that operate independently toward goals you define. Think of it as the difference between asking an assistant one question vs. hiring a team member who runs an entire function. Google, Salesforce, and other enterprise platforms are building agentic marketing capabilities. This book teaches you how to build your own.
