A Pittsburgh mastermind for marketers who go against the grain.
There's moreYou've probably felt it. Nose in a computer, grinding by yourself. You do the work, you get the results, you do it again tomorrow - but there's nobody next to you who actually gets it. You try to explain what you're working on to someone and watch their eyes glaze over.
This isn't for the corporate marketing department with a floor of people and a budget to match. This is for the one-man army. The two-person crew. The guerrilla marketers making it work - with AI doing the heavy lifting a whole team used to do.
You're not in-house at some agency with a whole team backing you up. You're the strategist, the copywriter, the media buyer, and the AI experimenter - all at once. Everyone has a strength and everyone has a weakness. Steel City Marketers is a Pittsburgh-based mastermind for marketers who go against the grain - where you bring what you're great at and what you're stuck on, and chances are someone else in the room already figured out the AI trick that's been stumping you. And vice versa.
No stage, no pitch deck, no guru. Everyone brings a strength and a weakness - the thing you're great at, and the thing that's kicking your ass right now. Someone in the room is probably strong where you're weak. The only requirement to be here is a helper's heart: you come to give as much as you come to get.
The ad buyer who lives in KPIs, offline conversions, and ad creative testing. The SEO person still winning in a zero-click world. The email/SMS person whose flows make more than most people's launches.
The video editor who can make a phone-shot clip look like an agency spot. The YouTube guy who's cracked retention past the 30-second mark. The social media manager running five platforms and somehow sleeping at night.
The CRM builder who automated the job three people used to do. The Replit tinkerer shipping internal apps nobody asked for but everyone now needs. The n8n nerd with a workflow for everything, including things that don't need one.
The one who lives in Claude half the day, building tools instead of just prompting. The one generating creative with Nano Banana and cutting video with Veo 3 before lunch.
The guy who built a whole retro adventure game just to walk you through Southside - yinzer cabbies, a casino, a disco inferno, and it all starts at a bar on the corner you've probably had a drink at.
Freelancers, solo operators, and small crews - all problem solvers, all figuring out AI before it figures out them.
Fill this out. When the first Steel City Marketers event is set, you're the first to know - and the only way in.
When the first Steel City Marketers event locks in, you'll hear about it before anyone else. Come ready to give as much as you get.
