How One Hackathon Turned Frustration Into Innovation

Daria Grastara (Direct Persuasion) didn’t launch her first company-wide hackathon to show off. The goal? Turn daily campaign frustrations into practical, time-saving tools.

 

In this episode of podcast, you'll hear how:

  • Using problem-first prompts pushed a team beyond AI copywriting and into real campaign workflows.
  • The staffers least expected to embrace AI became its biggest champions.
  • Building a solution from the ground up created faster adoption and even surprised leadership.

The result: a portal of AI-powered tools, built in two months instead of a year, cutting costs and production times.

 

👉 to hear how democratizing the build can spark buy-in, speed innovation, and produce solutions that stick.
