AI Marketing Keynote Speaker

I'm Corey Haines — an AI keynote speaker and marketing expert who's worked with 100+ startups, run marketing at venture-backed companies, and built one of the most widely used open-source AI marketing libraries on the internet.

As a marketing keynote speaker, I give talks, workshops, and panels on what AI actually changes about marketing — not the hype, not the prompts, but the real structural shifts: how teams are organized, how content gets made, how search works, how brands win attention in a world where AI is both the writer and the reader. The goal of every session is the same: your audience leaves with a sharper mental model and at least three things they can ship on Monday.

Signature talks

• Marketing Like an Engineer — the best marketing teams borrow from engineering culture: systems thinking, version control, testing, deployment, feedback loops. What happens when you run marketing like a software product — and why the best marketers already do.
• From Marketer to Founder — my path from running marketing at venture-backed startups, to learning to build, to shipping my own products and agency. What you gain at each step, what you give up, and why every modern marketer should seriously consider the route.
• Practical AI Marketing (Live Demo) — a hands-on, live demo using Marketing Skills, my open-source AI agent toolkit. Real marketing workflows — content, SEO, research, analysis — built and run end-to-end in front of the audience.
• Coding for Marketers — a practical primer on how marketers can start shipping their own tools, pages, scripts, and automations with AI-assisted coding. No CS degree required — just the right mental models, the right workflow, and the confidence to build.

Why book me

Most "AI marketing" speakers are either consultants who heard about AI last year or engineers who've never shipped a marketing campaign. I've done both jobs. I've led marketing at venture-backed startups, run Conversion Factory (a marketing agency for B2B SaaS), and built Marketing Skills — an open-source AI agent toolkit for marketers. I write SwipeFiles, a newsletter read by 30,000+ marketers and founders.

I show up prepared, respect the run of show, and leave your audience with something they can actually use. More about me, or read what I've been writing. If you're looking for ongoing help rather than a one-time talk, I also work as an AI marketing consultant.

Formats I do

• Keynotes — 20–45 min, conference or company all-hands.
• Workshops — half-day or full-day, hands-on with your team.
• Fireside chats & panels — moderated conversation or panel participation.
• Podcasts & interviews — remote or in-person.
