From the podcast:

You don’t have to learn code to use automation, but you should understand how automation works (14:22): “I personally can’t code. I have the benefit of having somebody on my team who can code, and I think that marketers who are not interested in coding should still learn the process to at least create the plan so that they know what to expect. Then they can maybe hire a freelancer, contractor, or company who can do the coding for you, but you should have control over the plan from start to finish. You should understand what the automation should be doing for you: the benefits, the risk analysis, the cost, the maintenance. That’s everything a marketer can do without having to touch a single piece of code. Then, once that plan’s put together, you hand it off to somebody and say ‘please do this for me.'”
