Alessandra Colaci ⚡️

Head of Marketing at SparkPlug⚡️AI Marketing Advocate

I help legal professionals adopt AI in a practical and secure way.

With over 15 years in tech and a focus on AI workflows, I work with law firms, in-house counsel, and legal operations teams to build custom AI solutions that improve efficiency. From automating routine tasks to enhancing document review, I translate complex AI capabilities into clear, usable workflows that legal teams can actually implement.

My journey into AI began when I helped launch one of the first micro-tools built with the OpenAI API, an AI email writer created before ChatGPT existed. Since then, I have led AI strategy at SaaS companies, trained teams on AI adoption, and implemented AI-driven systems.

I hold a certification from MIT in Artificial Intelligence for Business. My specialties include:
	•	AI workflow development for legal teams
	•	Prompt engineering for legal use cases
	•	AI training and enablement for internal teams
	•	AI tool audits and evaluations
	•	Aligning AI adoption with privacy, security, and compliance standards

Whether you’re exploring legal AI tools, automating intake, or building a knowledge assistant, I help legal teams implement AI in a way that is strategic, ethical, and aligned with business outcomes.

If you’re exploring AI for your firm or legal department, I’d be happy to connect and share ideas.

Just a marketer trying to master AI in 2024 🦾 | Host of AiDrivenMarketer.com

Marketers everywhere are being told “learn AI.” The question is: learn it for what?

The real opportunity isn’t learning every tool... it’s understanding how AI changes how content is created, distributed, and consumed.

I’ve spent the last few years helping marketing teams adopt AI—from podcast workflows to full content systems and teaching thousands through The AI-Driven Marketer.

I help marketers turn AI from chaos into clarity by automating the busy work, amplifying their creativity, and clarifying their message.

Quick ChatGPT hack.

Create a Project for each area of your.

I have projects for fitness, faith, my cars, house, work, clients, and even my family. 

Why?

Because ChatGPT does better with context.

Not just any context, but the context that's needed for the particular topic. So, if you want superior answers, you need to give it the right context for the right conversation.

I just set up a new project for my two cars yesterday and I always have the same process. The goal of the first conversation in a new project should be to collect the context for all future context and then compile it into instructions for that Project. 

Now, every future conversation I have about my cars with ChatGPT doesn't need all the basics. It knows the makes, models, years, milages, and basic history. It can now guide me accordingly.

Once you do this for a half dozen of the different areas of your life you are actively managing, you'll find that ChatGPT will be helping you navigate them all much faster and more accurately. 

Have you tried this yet?

PS - Want more details? I just elaborated on this whole process in the most recent episode of the AI-Driven Marketer. You can find it YouTube or any place podcasts are available.

You Can Be AI-Driven AND Human-first. Join me & 5k others to leverage both at AIDrivenMarketer.com

I'll be vibe coding all future websites. 

I can't go back to drag/drop after this.

This is a simple HTML site, but it could build a backend CMS if it needed to. 

I can hand code a whole website if I needed to, but this is better. 

It not only understands how to code, it knows how to design. I gave it the book cover design and asked it to build a website based on it. 

I can even give it vague instructions like "animate this box with some kind of subtle glowing thing" and it does. It used to take me hours of research just to figure out what was possible and a few more hours to bring a thing to life.

Now I just ask.

#Danchez

PS - Book went live on Amazon yesterday. Still waiting on Audible/Spotify, but you can get the full book/mp3s here for free: https://ownthe.show/

A podcast has the power to be a book publishing machine.

You just have to be thoughtful about the process.

You're already sharing your expertise on the show.

But, if you organize them correctly, those transcripts become more than content you can repurpose downstream into social.

They can be published upstream into a book.

You still have to outline the book the normal way, but instead of writing your first draft, you can speak it. 

AI can do the rest of crafting amazing chapters and even making strategic rewrites, restructuring and condensing. 

It's still your stories, expertise, frameworks, and personal experience. 

AI is just the ghost writer. 

That's what Ken Freire and I did with Own the Show and we want to show you how we did it in our live event this Thursday. I'll show all the steps I took, including the ones that are still manual that you might have to hire out.

Register here: https://lnkd.in/eUqsUpRG

I will not be holding back what I learned and will be sharing the good, the bad, and one ugly detail you'll want to hear before you start the process.

PS - If you're wondering if the book is any good. You can judge it for yourself. Take a look: https://ownthe.show

Building CustomGPTs are still the most meaningful

way to use AI and most people don't do it.

Maybe it's a Google Gem, Claude project, or a ChatGPT project. 

Doesn't matter. 

In 2026, this is still the one skill that separates beginner AI users from advanced ones. 

I'm not talking about simple, throw some context in it, custom GPTs either. I'm talking about ones that mirror important processes for you, so by the time you have a half dozen of them you feel like your workflow is supercharged.

Very very few people use them like this.

Once you figure it out though, you'll never go back. 

And the learning you get from doing this sets you up for full automation and/or vibe coding later. Without it and you'll won't be able to do those well. I promise.

Please, please, please go watch a dozen videos about how to build robust custom GPTs on YouTube. Then find one important process you use daily and try to build a custom GPT that speeds up that process dramatically. 

The first time you do it will be painful, but it will be worth it.

Also, it's not technically hard at all. What's hard is thinking through your process and bringing clarity to the individual small steps you take to accomplish a task or project. 

Don't let another year go by without building this skill.

#Danchez

One step AI can't do for you.

Is print layout design. Not yet anyway.

Fortunately, I have a background in Adobe Indesign. 😅
I never thought I would open this app again, and may have had to ask ChatGPT more than a few questions about where such-in-such button was these days.

I haven't been promoting this new book heavily over the last few months because I honestly wasn't 100% sure going from podcast to book would even work. 

But, the first version is now live online: https://ownthe.show/ 

And coming soon to Amazon Kindle, print, and Audible. 

I've learned so much in he process, that I'm far more excited sharing the AI lessons learned on AI-Driven Marketer than promoting the book. 

It's up now though for your full review. 

The best news? It only gets better from here.

#Danchez

If an AI Bubble bursts... awesome.
If it doesn't... that's cool too.

I don't really care.

But, if it bursts, I'll only double down. 

Some people might go the other way at that point, but I'll keep pressing in because I'm seeing the fruit of using the tools and I can't go back.

Even if we never get another update, we will still have 10 years of innovation built on top of the tech we have right now.

It would honestly be great to get a breathier from the speed of change too! 

What we have right now is amazing. 

What we get this year will be insane.

Video models that are as clear and accurate as our image models.
Voice models that are near real time and can reason.
And I bet we will see more AI that is proactive this year.

Who knows what else they have in store. 

I'm good either way.
