Glowi

🚀 Entrepreneur in Residence | Digitalization Kickstarter | Growth Marketing Enthusiast 🚀

🌱 Digitalization Kickstart: Hired by the visionary founders of Glowi, my mission is to spearhead the digitalization efforts within the organization. I identify opportunities to streamline processes, optimize efficiency, and embrace emerging technologies to drive growth and innovation.

💡 Lowering Operational Friction: A key responsibility is to keep and make the organization as lean as possible. By meticulously assessing the entire organization, I identify friction points and bottlenecks, leading to strategic interventions that enhance productivity and reduce unnecessary complexities.

📈 Growth Marketing Implementation: I work closely with the Marketing Manager to lower acquisition costs through growth marketing strategies. By deploying data-driven experiments, I optimize campaigns, target audiences, and marketing channels to maximize ROI and achieve sustainable growth.

🏠 Elevating Household Help Perception: I take pride in upgrading the perception of household help, aiming to transform the role into a valued and respected profession. By leveraging strategic communication and digital initiatives, I contribute to fostering a positive narrative around household help.

💻 Digital Projects Management: My expertise lies in conceiving and executing digital projects that align with Glowi's strategic objectives. I lead cross-functional teams, leveraging the points of friction I identified, to kickstart internal digital initiatives that drive efficiency and effectiveness.

Board of Innovation

🚀 Marketing Specialist | AI Content & Funnel Builder | Inbound Lead Generation 🚀

🎯 Driving Inbound Leads: My main focus is to develop and execute data-driven content strategies that establish Board of Innovation as a thought leader on the topic of Creative AI. By crafting compelling content that resonates with our target audience, we aim to attract and engage potential clients, leading them through the marketing funnel towards conversion. We use Hubspot to capture and nurture our leads. 

📝 Content Creation: I love crafting captivating stories! We create high-quality and engaging AI content, including articles, blogs, case studies, webinars, reports and social media assets. By leveraging the power of AI, we can deliver relevant and personalized content that speaks directly to our audience's pain points and interests.

🔍 Funnel Building: Building an effective marketing funnel is the heart of my work. I strategize, design, and optimize funnels to maximize lead generation and conversion rates. By implementing various marketing (automation) and AI tools, we ensure the funnels are efficient and aligned with our business objectives.

🤝 Social Selling: I believe in the power of social networks to connect with potential clients authentically. Through engaging and value-driven interactions, we establish meaningful relationships, nurturing leads and converting them into loyal customers.

💡 Paid Advertising (LinkedIn): As LinkedIn is a prime platform for our B2B audience, I lead paid advertising efforts to maximize our visibility and reach. I analyze campaign performance, adjust targeting, and optimize ad content to achieve optimal results and ROI.

My favorite quote about this role? "SEO is no longer something you do anymore, it's what happens when you do everything right".

Sliding into the last workweek of 2025, be like ...

With 4 AI trainings in the last week of the year, I can tell it's a very busy one. 

PS: If you're looking to extend your marketing skillset with AI skills in 2026, get in touch.

Organizing the biggest AI conference for marketers in Belgium.

“This AI trainer thing is getting out of hand.” - my accountant

I’ve tested 100+ (AI) marketing tools in 2025, it’s insane…. I know. 

Here are the ones I’m currently sticking with. 

What’s missing on my list?

Wispr Flow
Chat GPT plus
Gemini 3 Pro
Lovable Labs
Plug&Pay
Framer
Miro
Notion AI 
Tella
Perplexity
Superhuman Mail
Granola

Riverside FM
Clay

Canva Pro
Skool 

PS: Every month I’m hosting at least one AI for Marketers Masterclass. January 2026 sessions are already full, let me know if you want to learn these tools in February.

OpenAI is quietly building an ad business inside ChatGPT.

People are spotting things like “ads feature,” “search ad,” and “bazaar content” in the latest beta build of the Android app. 

It looks like ads will show up mainly around search and product recommendations, similar to Google’s AI Overviews and Perplexity’s sponsored prompts. This could let OpenAI give free users more features while keeping paid plans ad-free.

Exciting times ⏳

PS: Are you a marketer that doesn't know where to start implementing AI? I'm hosting my final AI for Marketers Masterclass of the year on December 18. I only have two tickets left. ➡️ www.aiformarketers.eu

Naval recently said something that’s stuck with me: “UI is pre-AI.” 

It made me rethink how we interact with software today.

Most interfaces still force humans to speak the computer’s language:
Navigate tabs
Click buttons
Fill out forms

But with AI, it could be the other way around, right?

A future UI could be:
Conversational
Context-aware
Invisible, even predictive
Autonomous?

It shifts from “where do I click?” to “what do I want?”
From navigation to intention.

I’m not sure I 100% agree with everything Naval meant, but it’s a hell of a thought experiment.

First year as an AI trainer is almost in the books. 🙏

I tried to do a Spotify Wrapped for my first year as an AI x Marketing trainer.

Here’s what I learned:

- People will ask which AI tool is “the best” until the end of time.
- Venues will always lie about their WiFi.
- Marketers don’t have a tech problem. They have a workflow problem.
- So many marketing teams don't have a strategy, but just do random acts of marketing.
- ...

My 2025 numbers:

🧠 1,247 marketers trained
🧰 172 tools tested
☕ 14 open masterclasses
🧯 23 in-house fire-drills disguised as AI workshops 

2026 goal:

Make AI boring.
Make AI normal.
Make AI part of every marketing team’s daily output.

AI for Marketers Wrapped

If your ads aren’t converting, STOP tweaking your targeting. 

It’s probably not your settings.
It’s not your audience.

It’s your creative.

Here’s the truth after looking inside 100+ ad accounts:

The biggest bottleneck in performance is not enough creative volume.

When CTRs drop and CPLs spike, most marketers panic and dive deep into the platform:
➡️ Tweak settings
➡️ Expand audiences
➡️ Rebuild funnels

But 9 times out of 10?
The creative is the problem.
Or worse, there’s just not enough of it.


Now here’s the good news:
AI tools have completely changed this game.

Tools like Weavy, Inku, and Artlist let you:
Multiply your output
Generate ad variants at scale
Test faster, fail faster, win faster

And the quality? It’s getting scary good.

I recently saw a workflow that looked like science fiction:
	1.	Swipe a great ad to swipe file (Foreplay) → triggers an AI agent
	2.	Agent brainstorms 10+ ad concepts for your exact niche
	3.	Synthetic users test & rate them
	4.	Winning concepts get turned into 10-20 high-quality ad versions via AI tools

This is happening right now.

Most marketers are still playing checkers.
But AI is playing chess.
