In this episode of B2B Marketing Excellence, Donna Peterson breaks down the intimidating term “prompt engineering” and shows how it’s simply a smarter, more consistent way to work—no tech degree required.

Drawing from her experience with generative AI and recent insights from the Vanderbilt Prompt Engineering course, Donna shares practical ways to use prompts for repetitive marketing tasks like campaign planning and list recommendations. You’ll hear how creating simple, reusable prompts not only saves time but also ensures your whole team is aligned—producing clear, professional results.

You'll also learn:

• Why prompting is more about conversation than coding.
• How a well-written prompt becomes a shortcut you can use again and again.
