Claude Design: Build Campaign Ready Assets in 60 mins

​Most marketers leave a brief meeting with a direction and a timeline. You're going to leave this one with the assets. ​Join Albert C., a former marketer at Meta, for an exclusive AI Builder session where you'll produce three campaign-ready assets in real time. By the end of the hour, you'll have a landing page, a 5-slide social carousel, and a short product video, all built by you, on brief, from scratch. ​This isn't a walkthrough. You build alongside Albert C. the entire time, so you leave with finished work, not notes about finished work. ​The session covers prompt patterns for visual consistency, how to brief Claude on brand voice and color, and how to move efficiently across asset types without losing creative direction. You'll also walk away with a reusable prompt framework you can take back to any brief, for any product, so the work you do in this session isn't a one-time thing. ​Come with a product in mind. Everything else is provided.
