AI is transforming the way businesses generate revenue. With AI-powered marketing and sales strategies, chief revenue officers (CROs) can identify new opportunities, optimize existing processes, and scale their efforts like never before.

In this guide, we’ll show you how AI can help you generate more revenue, streamline execution, and give your team a competitive edge.

But first, watch the video below for a brief demonstration.


For this article, we’ll work with our Marketing Strategy Assistant. This assistant is designed to help marketing and sales teams generate revenue more effectively.

Unlike generic AI tools, they’re trained specifically on your company’s data, customers, and past sales efforts.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Ask for ideas. Say you’re in the brainstorming stage. You simply ask the AI:

“Please give me some ideas for revenue growth.

Because the AI already understands your company’s marketing channels and operations, it provides a list of ideas tailored to your business.

The AI might respond with a detailed list that includes:

1. Upselling
2. Cross-selling
3. Referral programs
4. Webinars
5. Workshop

  1. Choose the ideas you want to explore.

“I like #3. Please create a detailed strategy.”

The AI instantly delivers an actionable strategy. You can then modify, ask for more details, or explore another idea.

  1. Turn insights into action. Once you’re happy with the strategy, you have two options:
  • Save Draft to share with your team.
  • Place Order to send it to a Media Shower marketing strategist, who can refine and execute the plan.

Real-World Example: Upselling Opportunities

MarketBoost is a fictional B2B SaaS company that helps e-commerce brands increase their online sales. Their CRO, Ashley, is always looking for new ways to grow revenue.

Ashley turns to her Marketing Strategy Assistant for help. Because we have trained her assistant on MarketBoost’s sales data, customer interactions, and past marketing campaigns, all Ashley has to say is:

“What are the best upselling opportunities for our top-tier customers?”

The AI instantly generates a list of targeted opportunities based on what it already knows about MarketBoost:

Best Upselling Opportunities for MarketBoost’s Top-Tier Customers

MarketBoost’s Enterprise customers contribute significantly to its $12M ARR and have higher LTV. By offering premium features and services, MarketBoost can increase ARPU beyond $250/month while delivering deeper value to high-revenue e-commerce brands.

1. AI-Powered Ad Optimization

Why? Enterprise e-commerce brands spend heavily on ads but struggle with ROI optimization. Since MarketBoost already integrates with Shopify, WooCommerce, and Magento, an AI-driven ad tool can automatically optimize Google, Meta, and TikTok ads based on sales performance.
Revenue Potential: A $299/month add-on could drive an additional $1.5M ARR.

2. Advanced Customer Segmentation & Personalization

Why? MarketBoost’s top customers in fashion (35%) and beauty (25%) need deeper audience insights. Offering AI-powered segmentation that identifies high-LTV customers and automates personalized marketing would enhance engagement and retention.
Revenue Potential: Upselling a premium analytics module ($199/month) could generate $1M ARR.

3. Dedicated Growth Consultant

Why? Enterprise clients have a longer sales cycle (14-30 days) and value hands-on support. MarketBoost could offer 1:1 consulting services to help high-growth brands implement advanced sales strategies based on AI insights.
Revenue Potential: Charging $1,500/month for dedicated consulting to 100 clients = $1.8M ARR.

4. API & Custom Integrations

Why? Many Enterprise users rely on custom tech stacks, requiring seamless integration. MarketBoost can provide exclusive API access and white-glove implementation services for clients using third-party CRMs, ERPs, or inventory management systems.
Revenue Potential: A $5,000 setup fee + $499/month API access could drive $2M ARR.

5. Predictive Analytics & Sales Forecasting

Why? MarketBoost already leverages AI for customer insights—expanding this to predict seasonal trends and revenue spikes would be a game-changer for high-revenue brands.
Revenue Potential: A $249/month add-on could drive an additional $1M ARR.

6. Exclusive Data & Competitive Benchmarking

Why? MarketBoost serves a competitive e-commerce market. Offering premium clients an exclusive benchmarking tool that compares their sales, conversion rates, and customer behavior against industry leaders would provide high-value insights.
Revenue Potential: A $499/month data & insights package could contribute $2.5M ARR.

Projected Impact:

  • Current ARR: $12M
  • Upsell Potential: $10M+ ARR increase
  • Projected ARR (12-18 months): $20M – $25M

Would you like a structured go-to-market plan for these upsells?

Ashley responds “yes.” The AI responds with a customized go-to-market plan.

From here, Ashley can ask for modifications to this GTM plan, request suggestions for specific marketing assets for the plan, or ask for a new strategy for another idea.

Tips for Using AI for Revenue Generation

  • Be specific with your prompts. Instead of “How can we grow revenue?” try, “What are the best upselling opportunities for our top-tier customers?”
  • Refine and iterate. Use follow-up questions to fine-tune AI-generated strategies for maximum impact.
  • Test different budget scenarios. Ask the AI how to allocate additional funding to see where you’ll get the highest ROI.
  • Leverage AI for competitive insights. Ask, “How do we differentiate from Competitor X?” to get data-driven positioning strategies.
  • Use AI as a strategic advisor. Brainstorm new revenue streams, analyze market trends, and refine go-to-market strategies.
