In this episode, Alexander Carlson, founder of Digital Pop and host of the AI Marketing Navigator podcast, breaks down how AI is redefining what scale means for solo entrepreneurs and small businesses. He shares his exact AI tool stack that replaced an entire team's worth of work, explains why the traditional marketing pyramid is evolving into a "diamond model" with AI agents at the bottom, and reveals the uncomfortable truth about automation: we still need to master the fundamentals. We discuss why being human will become the ultimate differentiator in marketing, why "agent" is the most overused buzzword in AI, and how to balance automation without losing your humanity.
