Frederick Vallaeys publishes The AI-Amplified Marketer

Written by Paid Media Collective
IN BRIEF

Frederick Vallaeys: Google's first AdWords Evangelist and CEO of Optmyzr: has published The AI-Amplified Marketer: Digital Marketing in a GenAI World. The book is framed around closing the gap between AI hype and practical leverage for PPC practitioners, covering how to use generative AI as a force multiplier for existing expertise, how to build AI-powered workflows without a technical background, and how to maintain control as platforms become more automated.

What changed

Vallaeys brings two decades of PPC experience, including contributions to the original Quality Score and conversion-tracking systems, to a practitioner-first perspective on where AI is genuinely useful and where it is overstated.

THE COLLECTIVE PERSPECTIVE

Why it matters for advertisers

For you, this means a credible, practitioner-authored reference on AI workflows for paid media rather than another generalist AI marketing guide: worth adding to the reading list if you are building AI into your PPC process in 2026.
