AI marketing

AI marketing for small business, run by your own agent.

GATE gives a small business its own AI agent for the marketing nobody has time for: posts on Instagram, LinkedIn and Facebook, newsletters to your own list, sales emails, Google and Meta ads, and landing pages. Sales emails wait for your approval by default and new ads start paused. Habitual, a vegan supplements brand, reports 33% more sales since putting its business on GATE.

How it works

How does AI marketing work for a small business?

You brief one agent once, connect your accounts, and hand it the marketing jobs one at a time.

01

Brief your agent

Tell it your product, your buyers and how you sound. Your agent writes your brand voice and ideal customer into GATE's tools, so every post and email starts from them.

02

Connect your accounts

Instagram connects from the chat and your password never goes into it. LinkedIn and a Facebook Page connect too, Gmail sends your emails, and your Google and Meta ad accounts link to GATE.

03

It makes the content

Posts, carousels and video for Instagram, text posts for LinkedIn and photo posts for a Facebook Page, scheduled ahead, plus newsletters to your own lists with a test send first.

04

It finds the right people

Social campaigns search hashtags, keywords and the followers of brands you name, grade every profile against your ideal customer, and only then like, comment, follow or send one first message.

05

It reads the numbers

Ad spend, clicks and conversions for any date range, visits and sources from GATE's own analytics, and your Search Console queries per page over time.

Who approves what goes out?

You do, per kind of action. Some limits are set by GATE itself, whatever the agent is asked.

How much it does alone

Set per action, raised as trust grows.

Sales emails
Sorting replies
Instagram DM replies

Out of the box: sales emails wait for your yes, replies are sorted on their own, and Instagram DM replies stay off until you pick a mode for a conversation.

Limits built into GATE

Whatever the agent is asked.

Only a person can approve a sales email in the Inbox
Ads and campaigns it creates start paused
Budget changes are refused without an explicit confirm
Daily caps, cooldowns and quiet hours on social actions
An unsubscribe stops every GATE tool from mailing that person

What can an AI marketing agent do for a small business?

Six marketing jobs, each done through a real GATE tool.

Social

Posts on three networks

Your agent makes and schedules posts, carousels and video for Instagram, text posts for LinkedIn and photo posts for a Facebook Page, as you or as your company.

Engagement

The right people and creators

Campaigns grade every profile against your ideal customer, creators get a score out of ten with the reason, and only those above your bar are liked, commented on, followed or messaged.

Email

Newsletters and sales emails

Newsletters go to your own CRM lists from your Gmail or your own domain, test send first. Sales emails work the list you bring and stop when someone replies.

Ads

Google and Meta ads

Your agent reads spend, clicks and conversions for any date range and creates ads and campaigns paused. A budget change needs an explicit confirm.

Pages

Landing pages in seconds

A draft page goes live at a real link in seconds for comments, then ships to your own domain over HTTPS.

Numbers

Analytics without cookies

GATE's own analytics counts visits, sources and pages without cookies and keeps your Search Console queries per page over time.

FAQ

Straight answers.

What is AI marketing for a small business?

AI marketing for a small business means an AI agent that does the marketing work itself instead of only suggesting ideas. With GATE, your own agent makes and schedules social posts, sends newsletters to your own lists, works your sales emails, reads your Google and Meta ads and builds landing pages, while sales emails wait for your approval by default and new ads start paused.

What is the difference between an AI marketing agent and marketing automation?

Marketing automation follows rules you set in advance and does nothing outside them. An AI marketing agent reads the situation and decides what to do inside the limits you set. GATE's agent writes each post and email for its audience, grades every profile before contacting anyone, and asks for your approval where your settings say it should.

Can GATE post on Instagram, LinkedIn and Facebook for my business?

Yes. GATE's agent makes and schedules posts, carousels and video for Instagram, text posts with an optional image for LinkedIn, as you or as a company Page you run, and text, link or photo posts for a Facebook Page. Instagram connects from the chat, and your password never goes into the chat. Video is supported on Instagram only.

Does GATE's agent run Google and Meta ads?

GATE's agent reads your Google and Meta ad accounts, with spend, clicks, impressions and conversions for any date range, and can create campaigns and ads. Everything it creates starts paused, and budget changes are refused without an explicit confirm, so your agent quotes the exact change and amount and waits for your yes. GATE does not make video ads or run other ad networks.

Can an AI agent send my newsletter?

Yes. GATE's agent writes the newsletter and sends it to a list in your GATE CRM, from your own Gmail address or from your own verified domain. It can send you a test, shows the plan before anything is sent and can schedule the send. Every message re-checks the opt-out, and one unsubscribe stops every GATE tool from mailing that person.

Is social media outreach with GATE safe for my accounts?

GATE paces every Instagram and LinkedIn action with daily and hourly caps, a cooldown of about 36 hours per person, random gaps and quiet hours, and it touches each person once per action: one like, one comment, one follow, one first message. Replies never use up the daily cap; only a cold first message does. No tool can promise a network will never flag an account.

What can't GATE's marketing agent do?

GATE's marketing agent does not make video ads, run ads outside Google and Meta, buy contact lists or fill a content calendar by itself. It does no outreach on Facebook and posts no video to LinkedIn or Facebook. It works only through GATE's own tools, so a marketing job without a tool is built first, and the ads it creates start paused.

Do I need a marketing team or technical skills to use GATE?

No. You brief GATE's agent in plain language, the way you would brief a new marketer, and it works through GATE's own tools: no code, no automation rules to wire up and nothing to install on your site except the analytics tag if you want it. Most companies run on one agent, and some add a second, for example for sales.

Does AI marketing move real numbers?

It did for Habitual, a vegan supplements brand run by one founder. After putting the business on GATE, Habitual reports 33% more sales, capacity for five times the orders and a 50% faster site. Every number on GATE's customer pages is reported by the customer, and the full story is on GATE's Habitual case page.
