4 minutes

If you're a plumber, electrician, or HVAC engineer in the UK, you've been quoted £2,000–£5,000 a month for marketing agency services. Andy breaks down how AI marketing automation has changed that entirely, letting you run professional marketing for roughly the cost of a decent toolkit. In this episode, Andy walks through the four AI 'agents' that handle your marketing, a realistic cost breakdown, and exactly where to start. Practical, no-hype guidance for UK tradespeople and service businesses looking to compete without blowing the budget.

Andy Norman from Antek Automation shares practical tips sourced from the blog post: AI Marketing Automation for Tradespeople: £100/Month Guide.

Think of AI marketing as four workers, not one magic button.

Start with the Researcher before you write a single word.

Use the Writer tool for a first draft, not a finished article.

Always have a human do the quality check — especially on technical content.

Use a Scheduler tool to stay consistent without being glued to your phone.

The realistic monthly budget breaks down like this: Researcher tool around £20, Writer tool around £20, Scheduler tool around £15 to £20, plus a quality-check buffer of roughly £20 for any premium features you end up using.
