In simple terms

This project helps you use AI without losing control of your thinking.

Instead of asking AI random questions and getting generic advice, you first write down:

• what you believe (strategy),
• who you are building for (context),
• what you should avoid (rules).

The AI is then allowed to answer only using what you wrote. If something is not defined, it refuses to guess.

Think of it like giving AI your brain — but on your terms.

Why this is useful

Most people use AI like a brainstorming partner. That sounds helpful, but it often leads to:

• inconsistent decisions,
• changing opinions every day,
• advice that sounds good but doesn’t fit your situation.

This system is useful because it does the opposite.

It helps you:

• stay consistent with your own thinking,
• avoid repeating bad decisions,
• reduce mental overload,
• use AI as a reasoning partner instead of a suggestion machine.

This makes it useful not just for marketing, but for any role that involves frequent decisions.

Who this is for (and who it is not)

This is for people who:

• make frequent decisions,
• care about consistency,
• want AI to respect their thinking,
• prefer clarity over constant new ideas.

This is not for people who:

• want instant answers without context,
• expect AI to think for them,
• are only looking for creative inspiration,
• want “growth hacks” or shortcuts.

  A common AI mistake this avoids

Most people use AI by asking: “What should I do?”

This often leads to:

• advice that changes every time,
• ideas that sound smart but don’t fit,
• decisions that don’t compound over time.

This system flips that approach.

Instead of asking AI to decide for you,
you first define how you think.

AI is then used to:

• apply your rules,
• check consistency,
• highlight gaps,
• support decisions without taking control.

This keeps you in charge of the thinking, not the tool.

Private Marketing MCP (Local)

A local, privacy-first Marketing MCP that grounds AI in real context, strategy, and decision rules.

This system turns your strategy, ICP, decisions, and campaigns into structured memory so a local LLM can reason only from your thinking — not generic advice.

What this is

Private Marketing MCP (Local) is a local-first marketing operating system.

It lets you:

• Store strategy as files (not prompts)
• Load that context into a local LLM
• Ask questions and make decisions based ONLY on your data
• Keep everything private and offline

No SaaS.
No dashboards.
No data leaving your machine.

How it works (high level)

1. You write strategy files (ICP, core strategy, decisions, campaigns)
2. A script converts them into structured memory
3. A local LLM (via Ollama) loads that memory
4. You ask questions
5. Answers are grounded ONLY in your files

How to use this (non-technical)

You don’t need to think of this as software. Think of it as a thinking system.

1. First, write things down.

   • Your strategy
   • Your rules
   • What you want to avoid
   • Who or what you are making decisions for

2. Treat those files as your source of truth.

   • Update them when your thinking changes
   • Don’t overwrite them impulsively

3. When you use AI, you load this context first.

   • The AI reads what you wrote
   • It is not allowed to invent new ideas

4. Ask questions you would normally debate in your head.

   • “Is this a good idea?”
   • “What am I missing?”
   • “Should I do this now or later?”

5. Use the answers to reflect, not blindly follow.

   • You stay responsible for decisions
   • AI helps you stay consistent, not impulsive

If you stop using the system, nothing breaks. Your thinking is still safely stored as files.
