My Weekly Marketing

Your dream client is on the couch, ready to hire, and instead of Googling, she asks ChatGPT for “the best” person to solve her problem. If your name never appears, it may have nothing to do with your skill and everything to do with visibility in AI search. We break down what it takes to get recommended in a world where Google Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, and other answer engines are shaping buying decisions.

In this episode, I talk about why experience is one of the biggest advantages you can bring into your marketing, especially if you’re starting or growing a business later in your career.
