Navigating the Marketing, Distribution, and Manufacturing Challenges of AI Integration

Around the Horn in Wholesale Distribution Podcast

Ready or not, AI is making a huge impact in wholesale distribution and manufacturing (and in our opinion, it's definitely better to be ready than not).
In this week's episode, Kevin and Tom look at that basic challenges facing businesses that want to—or at least know they should—adopt AI. We start by discussing the most common issues businesses face when integrating AI into marketing strategies. How does AI help with relevance, confidence, and trust in customer acquisition and retention?
And have you heard about Amazon using generative AI to scan packages for defects? How does this highlight the potential for AI to enhance quality control processes in distribution and manufacturing? Can this kind of technology optimize human roles or replace them?

Furthermore, we explore the evolving landscape of B2B marketing, focusing on the shift away from traditional MQL approaches towards more customer-centric strategies. Nothing can replace the need for seamless e-commerce experiences to build customer confidence and trust...but can AI assist with that, too?

Finally, we delve into the distinction between open and closed AI systems, discussing the implications for executives and decision-makers in choosing the right AI solutions for their organizations. This episode provides valuable insights into the intersection of technology, marketing, and AI in the modern business landscape.
