In this episode of E-Coffee with Experts, we’re chatting with Terry Zelen, Owner of Zelen Communications, and the guy who went from studying marine biology to running a successful creative agency. His path into marketing wasn’t traditional, but that’s what makes his perspective so refreshing.
Terry breaks down how his team started using AI tools like ChatGPT and Midjourney way before it was trendy. But for him, it’s not about replacing people, it’s about making his team faster, smarter, and better at what they do. From SEO to content strategy, they’ve found ways to use AI that actually move the needle.
We also dig into how they tell stories through content that people actually care about, and why using the right marketing channels for the right audience matters more than ever.
