Onboard Your Business

Just say:

new client my-business

This starts a guided interview (~20 minutes) that builds your complete marketing profile: brand voice, customer personas, goals, and competitive positioning. You'll leave with your first monthly and weekly content plans.

How It Works

AI-CMO is conversational. You don't memorize commands or follow a specific workflow. Just talk to it like a colleague:

"What should we post this week?"
"How are we doing on Instagram?"
"I just got back from a shoot, footage is on the drive"
"The kitchen project is done — we need a reveal post"

The agent recognizes what you need, reads the right files, runs the right workflow, and suggests the next step.

Built-In Marketing Knowledge

Beyond the core CMO capabilities, AI-CMO includes specialized marketing references it pulls from when relevant. Just describe what you need.

Email Sequences

Drip campaigns, lifecycle automation, and sequence design

Content Strategy

Topic clusters, buyer journey mapping, searchable vs. shareable planning

Marketing Psychology

70+ psychological frameworks for hooks, CTAs, messaging, and pricing

SEO Audit

7-dimension audit covering crawlability, Core Web Vitals, on-page, and content quality

Analytics Tracking

UTM frameworks, GA4 events, GTM patterns, and conversion tracking setup

Recommended: Humanizer

AI-CMO directs strategy — but when you need Claude to write or polish copy, pair it with Humanizer. It strips 24 common AI writing patterns (significance inflation, em dash overuse, filler hedging, etc.) so your captions and scripts sound like a person wrote them.

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills

git clone https://github.com/blader/humanizer.git ~/.claude/skills/humanizer

Once installed, just ask Claude to "humanize" any output. Works great with weekly plan captions and video scripts.
