Key takeaways

  • Most Hong Kong SMEs that use AI already use it for marketing, but few have connected it to their workflows.
  • "Scaling" means building a repeatable pipeline, not just writing more prompts.
  • Give AI the volume work (drafts, variations, scheduling, reporting). Keep taste, approval and customer relationships with people.
  • Write an AI use policy before you put customer data into any tool. The PCPD has published a checklist you can follow.
  • Run it as a loop: Discover → Design → Produce → Optimize.
