Your next campaign starts with a more capable team.

Hands-on AI training for marketing teams and agencies. Bring a real brief; learn to research, create and deliver with tools your team can use.

Run on the AI we built for ourselves.

Learn on the work

Bring a brief. Leave with a way to work.

Your team learns by doing: developing a strategy, testing a creative idea or improving a recurring task.

We scope the sessions around your roles, current skills and brand material.

The output is something your team can use again: a structured brief, a creative workflow, a client context pack or a reporting routine.

Choose your tracks

Different roles. Connected ways of working.

Choose a focused track or combine them for your team. Each starts with a marketing task and ends with work to review.

  • Prioritise use cases against your team’s work

Use Claude and other assistants to explore source material, challenge assumptions and develop a recommendation.

Explore AI-assisted image and video workflows with tools such as Runway and Higgsfield, guided by your brand and creative direction.

For delivery teams

Make the repeat work repeatable.

For content, social, account and operations teams working across deadlines and client accounts.

    Document the inputs, prompts and review steps so another team member can follow the workflow.

How we use AI

We use AI to run our own agency.

We do the work we teach.

Our production teams use AI to support all our existing clients, with up to 80% AI-powered delivery. Everyone on our team is AI-certified. We teach your team the skills we use and build the tools they need.

“The Lokal AI training that we had was highly engaging! Their approach gets you into it immediately, enabling you to put prompting into practice in a practical and enjoyable way. It’s good that we were also able to try and understand the different AI assistants / generative AI tools during the session.”

“Artificial Intelligence, while widely utilized, reveals its true potential when leveraged with precision and purpose — and that’s exactly what the session gave us.”

Helping people use what they learn.

“…there was no program, no playbook, and no precedent, just an idea. Joshua … built the whole thing from the ground up … Getting a few thousand people to actually adopt something new in their day to day work is a completely different challenge than shipping a training deck, and he understood that from day one.”

Common Questions

What people ask before they hire us.

Who is the training for?

Marketing agencies, in-house marketing teams and marketing groups. We tailor the exercises for leaders, strategists, creatives, content teams and account managers. Different roles can take separate tracks.

Can beginners and experienced users take part?

Yes. We assess existing skills before scoping the sessions. Beginners build confidence with context, prompting and review; experienced users work on repeatable workflows and more demanding briefs.

Which tools will we use?

The tools follow the brief. Strategy and research sessions can use Claude or ChatGPT; creative sessions can include Runway and Higgsfield. We confirm accounts, subscriptions and any generation-credit costs before the workshop.

Can we use our own client work?

Yes. Bring approved briefs, brand guidelines and sample assets. We agree what can be used in the selected tools and can work with sanitised examples when client information cannot be shared.

Do you run training online or in person?

We can scope live online delivery or on-site sessions in Australia and the Philippines. Your proposal confirms location, schedule, group size and any travel costs.

What happens after the workshop?

Your team receives the agreed exercises, reusable workflow material and next steps. A longer programme can include practice between sessions, feedback and adoption coaching. Ongoing consulting or custom builds are optional, separately scoped services.

What does it cost?

We quote for your team size, tracks, delivery format and follow-up. The proposal sets out session scope, fees, currency and any separate software or travel costs.
