Ticket to Ride

**(7:00 PM)** 🔹**Please fill in your details to confirm your attendance.** **[Confirm my attendance, click here](https://www.dopplerpages.com/dmktribe-BC897/TalkAutomationandAIAgents-89173)** **Talk: Automation and AI Agents** In this session, the Michele will guide the audience through a practical and eye‑opening journey into how marketers can reclaim their time, eliminate repetitive work, and leverage AI to amplify their impact. The content is organized in a logical, accessible progression: ### 1\. Time Management & Productivity in Marketing * Why most marketers feel they “never have enough time.” * Identifying invisible productivity leaks. * Understanding how much of your day is actually yours. ### 2\. The Cost of Low‑Value Repetitive Work * Tasks that drain hours without contributing to growth. * How repetitive work steals creativity and strategic thinking. * The real problem: time lost, not lack of skill. ### 3\. Key Definitions: Workflow\, Automation & AI Agents * What a workflow is and when it’s useful. * What automation can (and cannot) do. * What an AI agent is and why it represents a new level of capability. ### 4\. Types of AI Agents * **Standard agents:** rule‑based, simple task executors. * **RAG agents:** agents that retrieve, understand, and respond using updated knowledge. * **Agentic orchestration:** multiple agents collaborating like an intelligent team. ### 5\. RAG Graph Memory & How AI Knowledge Works * How AI stores, connects, and retrieves information. * What “memory” means in an AI system. * Why this enables more accurate, contextual decision‑making. ### 6\. Real‑World Automation Cases for Marketers * Practical examples applied to content, campaigns, research, and analytics. * Use cases that save hours every week. * Tasks you can delegate to AI starting today. ### 7\. AI as a Skill Amplifier\, Not a Job Replacement * How AI enhances your strategic capabilities. * Human skills that become more valuable with AI. * Moving from task executor to system architect. ### 8\. Mindset Shift: Thinking in Systems * Transitioning from “doing tasks” to “designing systems that work for you.” * Structuring your work to scale without burnout. * The new role of marketers in the era of intelligent automation. **Speaker: Michele Bet** Michele is a Fractional Growth Manager & AI Orchestrator.

*This club is for founders, VCs, operators, and startup ecosystem players — past, present, and future.* Five-a-side football is beautifully simple. A small pitch, ten people, one ball. No hiding, no waiting around — you're always in the game. But simple doesn't mean easy. In 5x5 everything is faster, tighter, more immediate. You make a bad pass and you feel it straight away. You make a good one and the whole team moves. There's no room for long-term strategy — just read the situation, act, adjust. Sound familiar? What makes it great is that it doesn't matter if you played seriously or just kick a ball around the park occasionally. The pitch levels everyone out. A founder who hasn't played in years will still find their feet, and by the second half you're already making plans for the rematch. **🎯 What to Expect** **60-minute game** — fast, fun, no downtime. **10 players, rotating if more** — all levels welcome, beginners very much included. **Real connections** — the kind that happen when you're out of breath and someone just saved your goal. **💸 €8 per person** — pay before the game: [paypal.me/alexbing2](paypal.me/alexbing2) Paying upfront keeps the pitch confirmed and the group reliable. No last-minute ghosts. Arrive 15 minutes early to warm up and meet the crew. **⚠️ Cancellation Policy** Cancel at least 2 days before if you can't make it — someone on the waiting list will be very happy to take your spot. No-shows without notice lose their €8 deposit and get moved to the waiting list for future events.

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great new films! Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL! The film follows a temporary small-town sheriff who uncovers dark mysteries after a local bank robbery. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: THE CHRISTOPHERS: The children of a once famous artist hire a forger to complete some unfinished, long ago abandoned canvases so they'll have a better inheritance when he dies. It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff. But a bank robbery leads him to a criminal underground reaches throughout the entire town. The film is directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Bob Odenkirk, Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film comes from the same team that brought us Nobody and the John Wick series, so expect an over-the-top, action-filled thrill ride! TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rmm-lM33Qw0&t=19s PLAN: Details for this event have been confirmed! For THE CHRISTOPHERS, please purchase your ticket for the 7:00pm showing and meet in the upstairs lobby between 6:40 and 6:50pm! For NORMAL, please purchase your ticket for the 7:30pm showing and meet in the upstairs lobby between 7:10 and 7:20pm! For both films, tickets just $5 ($6.50 after online fees when purchased on the GFC website). Advance purchase is advised. Once you have yours, please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Posting this early because seemingly all Sundays in May are holidays or busy! I picked a shorter thriller that's hopefully a fast read/listen. [Columbus library link to book](https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3458940) Location: Grandview Cafe, *1455 W. 3rd Ave*, Columbus, OH 43212 [Menu](https://www.grandviewcafe.com/menu) Book summary: Daniel leads a rich life in the university town of Athens, Georgia. He's got a couple close friends, a steady paycheck working for a regional airline, and of course, for a few glorious days each Fall, college football tailgates. He considers himself to be a mostly lucky guy -- despite the fact that he's suffered from a debilitating disease since he was a small child, one that has left him unable to speak or to move without a wheelchair. Largely confined to his home, Daniel spends the hours he's not online communicating with irate air travelers observing his neighborhood from his front porch. One young woman passes by so frequently that spotting her out the window has almost become part of his daily routine. Until the day he's almost sure he sees her being kidnapped.

Do you sometimes feel like you do well in life then something happens and you slide back, never quite getting ahead. At this Meetup you'll find out how to identify what actually causes the lows, the highs and everything in between. More importantly you’ll get the secret of how to gain control over your life so the highs are higher and the lows go away. Wouldn’t it be nice to stop the wild roller coaster ride for good? Or at least make it a fun roller coaster ride, with more ups and downs. There is a hidden factor that will be going over and you’re going to be quite surprised what it is and how much it affects your life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is hosted at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.

It stars returning cast members Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci along with newcomers Justin Theroux and Kenneth Branagh. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9HXmMnUEdE PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime. Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but early arrival is advised. Be sure to mention you’re with the Movie Group for admission/concession discounts. And make this a true Fun Friday by joining us after the show for the best part of the night – food and drinks at the nearby Rusty Bucket! Complete details, including showtime, will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Should be a fun one, Dan

"The SOB is a ballet dancer. He’s the best ballet dancer that ever lived, and if I get a good chance I’ll kill him with my bare hands." - W.C. Fields In *City Lights*, Chaplin's Little Tramp meets a blind girl selling flowers who mistakes him for a wealthy man. When he learns that an operation may restore her sight, he sets off to earn the money she needs to have the surgery. He also befriends an alcoholic millionaire who only recognizes him when he is drunk. When the blind girl and her grandmother fall behind in the rent and face eviction, he tries working and even enters a boxing competition to raise the money they need. Regarded as Chaplin's masterpiece, *City Lights* has been ranked on more than seventeen "100 greatest movies of all time" lists. Orson Welles cited it as his favorite picture. *City Lights* is available for streaming on Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBOMax, Tubi and PlutoTV. The Columbus Library lists three copies on blu-ray and eight copies on DVD. Watch the movie on your own, then join us upstairs at East Market to discuss the film. If you want more, *Unknown Chaplin* is a three-episode lost-footage documentary available on Youtube. It covers his time on *City Lights* beginning at the twenty-six minute mark of episode two: https://youtu.be/f8960Uc15hI?t=1558
