About the Event
AI is changing how customers discover businesses. More customers are starting their search inside tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity. That changes how businesses need to think about online visibility. So what makes one business more likely to be found, understood and recommended by AI?
Join WAKE's Lunch n' Learn on October 16 for a practical conversation about what business owners can do to improve their visibility in this new era of search. Our expert speaker will explain how AI is changing online discovery, what influences whether AI tools can find and recommend your business, and what still matters from traditional SEO.
What to Expect:
You'll walk away with a better understanding of:
how AI tools discover, interpret and recommend businesses
what you can do yourself to make your business easier for AI tools to understand
how to assess where your business is visible today and where you may have gaps
the role of third party mentions, reviews and other online signals
what still matters from traditional SEO such as website content, keywords and backlinks
The session will offer clear, actionable steps that don't require advanced technical knowledge.
