AI Marketing Proof of Concept Checklist for Service Businesses: How to Run a Pilot That Produces a Real Decision
- A useful proof of concept should test one real workflow with clear owners, success criteria, review rules, and a decision deadline.
- The goal of a pilot is not to prove that AI is exciting. It is to prove whether one workflow becomes more effective, more consistent, or less expensive to run.
- Small pilots fail less often when they are narrow, measurable, and tied to an operating problem the business already feels.
