Welcome to AI Marketing NZ

Practical AI and automation for New Zealand businesses

We set up AI and automation that does real work in New Zealand businesses: answering customers, cutting admin, getting found, and keeping an eye on the numbers. We can build it for you, or work alongside your key people while they learn to build it themselves. Either way, your team spends less time on repetitive jobs and more on the work they enjoy.

AI Review and Team Training

Find where AI will really help, then get your team using it well. Most owners know they should be doing something with AI but not where to start, and most staff are picking it up on their own with no shared rules. We review how your business runs, write a plan, train your team on their real work, and set up assistants that know your business.

• AI Opportunity Review: Half-day review of how your business runs.
• AI Roadmap: A written, costed plan.
• Staff AI Training: Hands-on, on your team's real tasks.
• AI Use Policy: Two pages, plain English.
• Business AI Accounts: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot business plans.
• Company Knowledge Assistant: Answers from your own documents.
• Task Assistants: One job each: quotes, replies, rosters.
• Case Study: LandSure: Website, lead capture, ads and dashboards.

Automations for Enquiries and Admin

Every enquiry answered. The repetitive admin done for you. Enquiries come in at all hours, often while you're on a job, and a lot of admin is the same task typed into two or three systems. We set up AI agents that answer, take details and book, and connect your tools so information moves on its own, with a person deciding anything that matters.

• AI Chat Agent: Website, Facebook and Instagram messages.
• AI Phone Receptionist: After-hours and overflow calls.
• Missed-Call Text-Back: An SMS straight after a missed call.
• Lead Routing and Quote Follow-Up: Every enquiry to the right person, every quote chased.
• Xero and Admin Automation: Invoices, receipts, job notes, reminders.
• CRM Set-Up and Clean-Up: One tidy customer list.
• AI Agents in Your Software: MCP connectors and supervised browser agents.

Google and Meta Ads, With Guardrails

Let the machines bid. Keep people on the limits. Google and Meta now use AI to run more and more of your ad campaigns automatically. That can work well, but only with correct tracking and firm limits. We set your ads up properly, put guardrails around the automation, and report back in plain English.

• Ads Audit: Google Ads and Meta accounts.
• Conversion Tracking Set-Up: GA4, Google Ads and the Meta pixel.
• Google Ads Management: AI Max and Performance Max, inside limits.
• Meta Ads Management: Facebook and Instagram, Advantage+.
• Monthly Ad Report: One page, plain English.

Free Community Workshops

Free AI workshops for community groups, online and in person. Community training is free. We run online and in-person workshops for community groups, clubs, libraries and anyone who wants to understand AI without the jargon. Bring your questions.

• AI Basics Workshop: Free, 60 to 90 minutes.
• Scam Awareness Workshop: Voice clones, deepfakes and fake messages.
• Business Taster Session: For local business groups.
• Train the Trainer: For librarians and community volunteers.

Social Media and Content, Approved by You

AI does the first draft. You keep the voice. Social media and marketing content are the most common things New Zealand small businesses use AI for, and they're easy to get wrong: generic, made-up, or not sounding like you. We set up a system where AI drafts in your voice and nothing goes out until you've said yes.

• Social Media Content System: Drafted by AI, approved by you.
• Brand Voice Kit: So AI writes like your business.
• Email Newsletter: To customers who asked for it.
• Customer Check-In Emails: Seasonal reminders, opt-in only.
• Video Editing and Captions: Your clips, ready for each platform.
• Product Descriptions: Bulk drafts for online stores.

News and Articles

Plain-English updates on AI for Kiwi businesses, with sources. Short articles on what is changing for New Zealand businesses using AI: funding, research, privacy rules and search. Each one names where its facts come from, and we add new ones as things change.

• AI Advisory Pilot: Funding for an AI Roadmap: Government co-funding.
• How Many Kiwi Small Businesses Use AI?: Survey round-up.
• Recording Calls? The Biometric Privacy Code: Privacy rules.

Websites and Getting Found

Be the clear answer when people search, on Google and in AI answers. Your website and Google listing are often the first things a customer, a search engine or an AI assistant reads about you. We build small, fast sites that clearly say what you do, where you work, what it costs and how to book, and help you show up honestly in search and AI answers.

Business Performance: Dashboards and Work Quality

Your key numbers on one screen, and better work from your team. Most owners log into five different systems to see how the business is going, or don't check at all. We put your key numbers on one screen with a plain summary each week, and set up AI that helps your team do their best work, openly and with staff on board.

• Live Business Dashboard: Your key numbers on one screen.
• Weekly AI Summary: A Monday email in plain English.
• Business Alerts: A message when something needs you.
• AI Meeting Notes: Notes, actions and summaries written for you.

Creative AI: Video, Ads and Design

Video, ads, product ideas and print, made faster with AI and finished by people. AI tools can now make video, images and layouts that used to take a studio. We use them for the parts they do well, like first drafts, extra shots and quick variations, and a person finishes everything so it looks like your business and says only what is true.

• AI Video Generation: Short videos from scripts and stills.
• YouTube Ad Production: Scripts, hooks and AI-made shots.
• Product Development: Concepts, mock-ups and quick prototypes.
• Print Material Templates: Flyers, brochures, menus and signs.
