A Guide to Using ChatGPT for Digital Marketing

AI is going to transform marketing in the same way that the internet did and then mobile. It will fundamentally change human computer interaction which will in turn disrupt how brands connect with consumers. And, as it disrupts how brands connect with consumers, it will also disrupt established digital marketing business models. In this post we explore how ChatGPT, a new AI-powered chatbot developed by OpenAI, is being used to help marketers. If you work in marketing and want to understand how AI can help be more effective and efficient then read on.

What is ChatGPT?

ChatGPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is an AI-based chatbot developed by OpenAi based on its GPT-3.5 Transformer architecture.

ChatGPT is designed to generate conversations that are more natural and meaningful than existing chatbots. It can be used to generate conversations with humans or between multiple bots. Along with its ability to understand context, it can generate conversations in multiple languages.

Businesses are now using ChatGPT to improve customer service, act as virtual assistants, and improve marketing operations.

Chat GPT is a multi purpose chatbot. It is similar to a search engine in that you ask a question (prompt) but very different in terms of what it responds with. Unlike a search engine, which responds with a list of websites ranked by relevance), ChatGPT responds with an answer.

It assembles the answer using AI which is trained on billions of data points coupled with its natural language algorithms. Below are some of the marketing use cases already emerging for ChatGPT.

ChatGPT for Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)

How to use ChatGPT for keyword research?

Keep in mind that the quality and relevance of these keywords depends on the quality of the data and the specific prompt and constraints provided by the user. Just like any other keyword research tool, it is important that you review these keywords and determine which ones are most relevant and valuable to your strategy.
