Brand Visibility in AI
Are you starting to hear leads say, "I found you in ChatGPT"?
I am. And now clients and managers are asking, “We just got found on ChatGPT, but how do we know if we’re showing up there?”
This video breaks it down—how to track unlimited questions in a spreadsheet and compare which brands show up on Google (PAAs) versus ChatGPT's answers.
How can you spot if your visibility is strong on Google but slipping on ChatGPT? That’s a potential threat if your customers are shifting to ChatGPT, and you may be invisible there.
Watch the video to learn how to track and stay ahead.
95% of today's marketing work will be "handled" by AI.
That Sam Altman quote really stuck with me after hearing it on Mike Kaput and Paul Roetzer's podcast. Mike briefly mentioned an “AI survival kit,” and it got me thinking—what would that look like for marketers?
After talking to dozens of agencies and reflecting on my own, I’ve put together insights on where we are in the AI marketing journey, what skills we need, and how to build a career path that’s AI-enabled. Even if AI takes over just 10% or 30% of our work, that's still a big shift.
