The Catalina #AI Wine Mixer: A New Tune in Automation While we can’t promise you a Catalina Wine Mixer with helicopters and Billy Joel (sorry 80’s Joel only), our take on how we can use AI to automate email generation will be music to your ears. Dive into our innovative approach and see how modern business processes can hit the right note.

The Digital Transformation Landscape: The era of digital transformation is upon us. Companies across the globe are leveraging technology to streamline operations, improve customer experiences, and drive revenue growth. Among the tools leading this revolution is automation. From simple task automation to complex workflow orchestration, businesses are finding new ways to do more with less.

The Experience: Imagine having an idea for an email campaign and seeing it materialize as a draft in your marketing tool in just 16 seconds. That’s the experience we’re showcasing. It’s not just about speed, but also about accuracy, consistency, and scalability. In today’s fast-paced business environment, being able to turn concepts into reality at breakneck speed is not a luxury; it’s a necessity.

The Process:

1. Planning in Monday.com: Every great process begins with a plan. For us, that planning takes place in Monday.com, our trusted collaboration platform. Here, we’ve designed a board aligned to our Marketo email template. This board, while simple in appearance, is the foundation of our automation magic. It captures everything from event descriptions to images, ensuring that every piece of the puzzle is in place before the automation kicks in.
2. OperationalAI in Action: One of the most time-consuming tasks in any marketing campaign is sourcing visuals. But what if you could automate that? That’s where OperationalAI comes in. By accessing MidJourney, we can quickly find the perfect visuals for our campaign. No more endless searches. No more settling for subpar images. Just the right visual, every time.
3. ComposableAI with Workato & OpenAI: With our board populated, it’s time for the real magic to begin. The moment we set our Monday item to “create email”, Workato springs into action. Using the ComposableAI methodology, it taps into the power of OpenAI’s ChatGPT. The result? An email that’s not just fast but also accurate and tailored to the audience.

The Outcome: But it’s not just about automation for automation’s sake. It’s about meaningful outcomes. In just 16 seconds, what started as a mere idea transforms into a tangible draft email in Marketo. And because we believe in the power of the human touch, this draft isn’t sent out into the world just yet. It awaits final review and touches, ensuring that the message is just right.

The Bigger Picture: This isn’t just about one email. It’s about reimagining what’s possible in the world of business. It’s a glimpse into the future where automation and human ingenuity come together to create experiences that were once thought impossible.

Conclusion: In the ever-evolving landscape of digital transformation, standing still is not an option. Automation, AI, and human creativity are paving the way for a new era of business. And as we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible, we’re reminded of the words from the movie “Step Brothers”: Did we just become best friends in the world of automation? Yup!
