In today's MadTech Daily we cover Perplexity launching a tool to simplify online shopping, a Spanish court ordering Meta to pay $550m to digital media firms, and new EU probes into Meta.
Send us a textIf your backlink comes with a receipt, it's probably a liability. We break down the crucial difference between buying placements and earning genuine editorial links, tracing the story from PageRank to Penguin to today's AI-driven search where citations and trust decide who gets surfaced. Along the way, we show how to avoid risky shortcuts and build a durable system for attracting links that actually move rankings.We start by unpacking why Google treats paid links as manipulation and how that pollutes the link graph, making results worse for everyone. Then we pivot to what white-hat link building looks like in the real world: story-first digital PR, clear assets that deserve attention, and outreach that invites coverage without dictating anchor text or demanding a link. You'll hear how to vet agencies, why “we guarantee 500 links” is a red flag, and how to separate paying for expertise from paying for links. We also share a lightweight playbook you can run yourself: launch a useful tool or guide, craft a tight angle, take it to the right conversations, and let editors choose you.Expect practical guardrails you can use today: decouple fees from link counts, track outcomes beyond volume, and look for natural placements on relevant sites. We also talk about the compounding effect of genuine mentions and why that matters even more as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity cite sources in their answers. When publications and niche experts link because your content helps their readers, you build authority that lasts through algorithm shifts and platform changes.Ready to trade risky purchases for resilient growth?

TikTok's parent company is now one of the world's most successful 'startups' A recent funding round has valued Bytedance, the company behind TikTok, at $480 billion, which is only just behind OpenAI's $500 billion valuation. Even though the US company may be sold or transferred, Bloomberg reports there was fierce interest in the stock sale with seven companies bidding, driving the valuation from $360 billion. Perplexity is bringing its AI browser to Android and beyond The underdog AI company and the first to make an AI enabled browser is expanding to take on Google directly. The Android app is now available, the iOS version is days away from launch, and it's also available for Mac and Windows making it much more widely available than the ChatGPT browser. Perplexity's goal is to be your go to search engine, trying to break Google's 20 year dominance. WhatsApp is getting the Instagram Notes feature You'll now be able to set a 'status' message that can either be seen publicly or just by your contacts. Just like Instagram Notes, the message only stays up for a day by default, but you can set it for longer or shorter if you want. It's another step to seemingly align all the Meta-owned messaging services – Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Okay, let's talk about AI and what I've been calling the “DoorDash problem.” This is about to define the next battle in AI, and it might completely transform not only how you order a sandwich, but also how the entire internet economy works in general. If you've been listening to the show this past year, you've heard me bring up the Doordash problem nearly a dozen times. I've been asking CEOs and leaders in tech and AI about it any chance I can get. Now, a lawsuit between Amazon and Perplexity is bringing this exact issue to the forefront, kicking off a major AI browser fight that could define the future of agents and the web itself.

Most freebies never get seen. Not by people, not by AI. If your lead magnet lives in a lonely folder or just looks pretty on Canva, this episode is for you. I'm Veronica Di Polo, marketing strategist and host of the Branding Momentum Podcast, based in Moraira, Alicante, Spain. I help service-based business owners get leads with words that sell and strategies that make them visible in AI search. In this episode, I'm breaking down how lead magnets are being read by AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini — and what's changed for 2026. You'll learn what formats actually get picked up, how to fix the ones you already have, and how to make your content work for both humans and machines. This isn't about pretty PDFs. It's about creating something AI can find and people actually want.
Google is rolling out major AI shopping features including conversational search, agentic checkout, and an AI that calls stores for you. This episode, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso, sparks a fascinating debate about the future of shopping search. Anne argues Google's comprehensive data ecosystem... from Gmail to Maps to Calendar, gives it an edge over ChatGPT and Perplexity. She believes Google could leapfrog competitors by leveraging existing consumer relationships. Chris pushes back, citing Google Shopping's historical struggles and questioning whether Google's legacy interface might actually hinder innovation.

In today's episode of The Sarah Cordiner Show, we're diving deep into one of the biggest changes business owners will experience in their lifetime: The tectonic shifts in tech, AI, and automation that are going to completely redefine how you run your business, how you get seen, and how you get paid in 2026. If you've been feeling behind, overwhelmed, or like you're trying to shovel water with a fork while everyone else magically surges ahead, this episode is going to give you a huge sigh of relief. You're not behind. You're actually ahead of 91% of the world right now. But things are about to change at lightning pace, and how you prepare over the next 12 months is what will determine whether your business grows… or disappears. Let's get you ready. In This Episode, We Cover: 1. The Big Shift: Early Adopters to Mass Adoption We explore the real meaning behind the numbers: Only 800 million people currently use ChatGPT, which is just 9 percent of the world. In 2026, everything changes as we hit mass adoption. This isn't fear mongering. It's commercial reality. Businesses who embrace AI now will surge ahead. Those who don't will struggle to compete. 2. The Death of Traditional SEO and the Rise of GEO For the first time ever, AI language models are sending traffic directly to your website. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity now cite sources and link users to your blogs. SEO is no longer just about Google. Welcome to Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) – and it is changing the game. You'll learn what kind of content LLMs prioritise, why long-form educational blogs are back, and how to ride this wave while it's still free. 3. How AI Now Determines Whether You Are Trustworthy AI models don't judge you on one post. They scan your entire digital footprint. We break down the four factors LLMs use to decide whether to show you or your competitor in search results. If you haven't been creating long-form content consistently, this episode shows you how to fix that today. 4. The Content You MUST Start Creating in 2026 Forget clickbait hooks and viral trends. LLMs don't recognise them, don't prioritise them, and won't refer traffic based on them. I reveal the exact structure you should use for blogs, YouTube videos, podcasts and social content so you start feeding AI what it wants. Plus: how to actually make your content sound like you (not a robot), even if you use ChatGPT to help write it. 5. The Human Element: Why People Still Choose You AI amplifies your brand, but it doesn't replace it. Your students and clients choose you because of how you make them feel. We talk personal brand, archetypes, energy, confidence and the role storytelling plays in converting the traffic AI is about to send your way. 6. Three Non-Negotiables for 2026 We finish with three key questions: What must you stop doing? What must you start doing? What is the smartest strategic and energetic move you can make this year? You'll hear my honest, hard-hitting answers so you can start planning your 2026 like a pro. You'll Walk Away Knowing: How to prepare your business for the next tech wave How to get free traffic from ChatGPT and other LLMs How to create content that search engines AND humans love How to amplify your brand using AI without losing your unique vibe How to future-proof your business in a period of massive change How to become one of the small percentage of business owners who actually stay ahead Sponsored by Tekmatix This episode is proudly brought to you by Tekmatix, the AI-powered all-in-one business platform for coaches, course creators and entrepreneurs who want their business to scale without the chaos.

Last week I talked about breaking down business silos and getting different departments to work together on user experience. That kind of cross-functional collaboration can feel like an uphill battle, especially when you're trying to shift organizational culture. So, today I want to share a powerful shortcut that can make your life considerably easier: building your credibility internally by looking outside your organization.I know that sounds counterintuitive. When you're fighting to change culture from within, why would you spend time looking outward? But external validation can accelerate your progress in ways that internal efforts alone cannot.Two ways external focus builds internal credibilityExternal validation falls into two broad categories, and both matter.First, when you're making arguments about how things should be done, external evidence adds weight. Every time you express an opinion or recommend a direction, you want data, case studies, or expert quotes backing you up. This transforms your suggestion from "here's what I think" into "here's what the evidence shows."Second, your personal reputation matters. If people outside your organization respect you, people inside your organization will take you more seriously. An external reputation builds internal credibility faster than almost anything else.Let me walk you through practical ways to leverage both of these categories, starting with that first one: backing up your arguments with external evidence.Use AI to back up your argumentsI use Perplexity constantly to find supporting evidence for positions I'm taking. I've even done quick searches during meetings before expressing an opinion. Whether you're in a presentation, a meeting, or writing a report, never just state something and expect people to accept it.Try a prompt like "provide me with statistics that reinforce the argument that UX design provides tangible business benefits." In seconds, you'll have credible sources to cite, especially if selecting academic sources as the search parameter.The principle applies to any argument you're making. Always have evidence ready.But data and research aren't the only forms of external validation you can leverage. Sometimes the most powerful external voice is an actual person.Bring in external experts strategicallyAs a UX consultant, I'm often brought into organizations where the internal UX team is just as skilled as I am, sometimes more so. Yet they still hire someone like me. I've thought hard about why that happens, and I see three reasons external experts add value:Authority from cost. Your salary is a hidden expense that nobody sees regularly. When leadership hires an external consultant, that cost is visible and immediate. Because they've just spent money, people feel they need to listen. It's not entirely rational, but it's real.Second opinions carry weight. When an internal team member and an external expert share the same view, that consensus matters to senior management. Two voices saying the same thing are harder to dismiss.Impartiality on sensitive topics. If you're asking for more resources or budget, you might appear self-interested. An external expert making the same recommendation seems objective.If you don't have budget for consultants, you can still reference external experts. People like me publish content constantly, and you can cite that work to reinforce your arguments.Expert voices carry weight, but they're still qualitative. If you want to make an argument that's truly hard to dismiss, you need numbers that show how you stack up against the competition.Benchmark against competitorsExternal benchmarking gives you objective comparisons that stakeholders understand. This works the same way NPS scores do in marketing: they let you measure your performance against competitors in your sector and beyond.For user experience specifically, I recommend the System Usability Scale. You can run this standardized test on your own website and your competitors' sites, then compare scores. This creates a compelling, numbers-based argument that cuts through subjective debate.Recognized benchmarking tools give you credibility that opinion alone cannot provide.Outie's AsideEverything I've shared so far applies whether you're in-house or external, but if you're a freelancer or agency working with clients, external validation becomes even more critical because you don't have the luxury of building credibility over months or years in-house.When you walk into a client project, bring evidence with you from day one. Reference industry benchmarks, cite recognized experts, and show case studies from similar organizations. Your clients are paying you precisely because you have that external perspective, so lean into it.The System Usability Scale I mentioned works brilliantly in client work. You can demonstrate objectively where their site stands compared to competitors, which makes conversations about improvements much easier. Numbers cut through internal politics in ways that opinions cannot.Now, all of these tactics rely on external sources and voices you're borrowing. But the most powerful form of external credibility is the kind you build yourself.Share your expertise publiclyI'd encourage you to go further and start building your external reputation actively. Publish that digital playbook you've been working on. Gov.uk did exactly this, and when people across the industry started referencing and discussing their work, it built massive credibility for them internally.They took it a step further by entering their website for awards. When they won the Design award in the UK, one of the most prestigious design awards in the world and a first for a website, their internal credibility skyrocketed.Think about ways to get external recognition. Speak at meetups. Write articles. Share your work publicly. That external visibility translates directly into internal influence.When you combine external credibility with the internal relationship-building and culture change work we've been discussing, you create momentum that's hard to stop. You're not just one voice inside the organization anymore. You become someone whose expertise is recognized beyond your company's walls, and that changes how leadership sees you.Next week I'll tackle a question that inevitably comes up once you start building this credibility and pushing for change: how do you actually prove that UX work delivers value? We'll look at practical ways to quantify your impact and show ROI to stakeholders who care about numbers.Paul

Perplexity AI, an AI-powered search engine, is ramping up its push for government use, inking a new deal with the General Services Administration to offer its product for just 25 cents per agency. GSA announced the deal with Perplexity on Wednesday, emphasizing that the product will be offered directly through the agency's Multiple Award Schedule rather than through a government reseller, a first-of-its-kind agreement. The move aligns with GSA's OneGov initiative, which aims to work directly with technology vendors to cut prices and streamline contracting. Under the deal, Perplexity's Enterprise Pro for Government will be available on GSA's MAS for a quarter to agencies over an 18-month term. In doing so, Perplexity also received prioritized authorization under FedRAMP, the government's primary security review program that approves cloud-based technologies for federal use. Perplexity is only the second company to do so, joining OpenAI, which received prioritized authorization in September. According to GSA, Perplexity's Enterprise platform was also streamlined through the FedRAMP 20x pilot, which is focused on simplifying the cloud services approval process and reducing the timeline from months to weeks. Perplexity's platform uses large language models from other companies, such as Anthropic's Claude or OpenAI's ChatGPT, to conduct real-time internet searches and generate summaries for users. GSA noted Perplexity's platform has optional connections to common agency systems like Microsoft's OneDrive, Outlook or SharePoint. The Department of Health and Human Services is exploring how artificial intelligence can support caregivers with the launch of a new $2 million prize competition for AI caregiver tools. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the “Caregiver Artificial Intelligence Prize Competition” at an event Tuesday for National Family Caregivers Month, stating the agency is calling on engineers, scientists and entrepreneurs to use AI to “make caregiving smarter, simpler and more humane.” Kennedy said: “Many caregivers work around the clock, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, taking care of their loved ones with lifelong disabilities, dementia or chronic illness. Too many lose their income, their job, their aspirations and ambitions for themselves and even their own health in the process.” The HHS's Administration for Community Living (ACL) emphasized that the direct care workforce is facing increased shortages, leaving family caregivers to fill the void. According to an AARP report published in July, nearly 1 in 4 adults provided ongoing care for an adult or child with a complex medical condition or disability.

Welcome to AI Unraveled (November 18, 2025): Your daily strategic briefing on the business impact of AI.Today's Highlights: Jeff Bezos returns to the arena with a new AI startup, Peter Thiel liquidates his entire Nvidia stake signaling a potential top, Perplexity faces skepticism, and Google unveils a game-changing AI weather model.Strategic Pillars & Topics:
130 IPOs from over 400 startups. IVP is now in its 18th fund, with companies like Perplexity, Glean, Slack, Figma, Twitter, Uber, and Abridge in its portfolio. Somesh Dash, general partner at the 45-year-old firm, has been part of IVP for more than 20 years.We start with something we are both passionate about, building in the US-India corridor. Somesh talks about the group of people who put the silicon in Silicon Valley, the immigrants. From Andy Grove to Elon Musk to Chennai-born Aravind Srinivas.He recalls the first time he met Aravind at a WeWork, when Perplexity had just 20 employees and a beta product or how Dylan (Founder of Figma) had the vision nobody else had on the future of design, way before ai. The early signals Somesh saw in these founders, long before any signs of massive success were visible. He also talks about the companies they missed, giants like DoorDash, OpenAI, and Anthropic.Though this seasoned investor truly believes in AI, he says the sector is due for a correction. The bubble will burst. Most Gen 1.0 AI companies are unlikely to reach billion-dollar valuations or go public. But as always in tech, the lessons from this first wave will shape Gen 2.0 companies. And the teams that understand and adapt from this early wave will build the next generation of successful AI companies. Also, when the bubble bursts, that's the time to invest.

The Healthtech Marketing Podcast presented by HIMSS and healthlaunchpad
Is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) really just SEO with a fresh coat of paint, or are we looking at something fundamentally different? This question has been nagging at me for weeks, and in this AI Quick Take I try to answer it.This started with a lunch conversation at the Marketing AI Conference in Cleveland, where an SEO expert told me AEO was merely a 10% incremental change from traditional SEO. Then I saw a post from Drew Neisser featuring a CMO who called AEO and GEO "a load of crap," suggesting that following SEO best practices would be sufficient. But after analyzing our own data at Health Launchpad and hearing similar stories from clients, I'm not convinced they're right.Our website traffic grew 10% month-over-month for four years straight, with 65-80% driven by SEO. Now SEO accounts for less than 40% of our traffic, but the decline has been offset by increases in referral and direct traffic from answer engines like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity. We're moving into what many call a zero-click world where users get answers, not links. The new gatekeepers aren't search engines anymore - they're answer engines that read, interpret, and decide what's worth repeating. In this episode, I will unpack why I think AEO truly is a big deal and requires thinking differently about how we approach digital marketing.Key Topics Covered:"(00:00:00)" Introduction"(00:01:30)" The Question: Is AEO Just SEO Rebranded?"(00:05:00)" Is This SEO 2.0 or Something Different?"(00:05:30)" The Reality of Traditional SEO"(00:06:30)" Health Launchpad's Traffic Data"(00:08:00)" The Zero-Click World"(00:09:00)" Answers Not Links"(00:10:00)" The Skeptics' Point of View"(00:11:00)" Overlapping Tactics vs Overlapping Strategy"(00:12:00)" SEO vs AEO: Ranked vs Retrieved"(00:14:00)" Pre-Qualified Buyers from AI Engines"(00:15:00)" Zyppy's Research: 86% Citations from Owned Content"(00:17:30)" The Measurement Challenge"(00:19:00)" New Metrics: Retrieval Frequency and Answer Share"(00:22:00)" Four Key Takeaways"(00:24:30)" Future-Proofing Your Brand"(00:25:30)" Closing AdviceIf you are interested in discussing this or any other topic, let's have a chat.

Send us a textWant more high‑quality links without playing whack‑a‑mole with paid placements or low‑value directories? We walk through a strategy that flips the usual script: stop entering awards and start running them. By becoming the awarding body in your niche, you can earn relevant backlinks from major brands, spark press coverage, and build durable authority that search engines and AI assistants recognise.We begin with why links still matter, especially as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity cite trusted sources. Then we compare two paths: paying to enter business awards versus designing your own programme. The first can help E‑E‑A‑T a bit, but links are often generic and pricey. The second lets you set clear categories, publish transparent criteria, and celebrate real winners in your vertical. Think “Best Value Broadband,” “Fastest Fibre,” or for ecommerce, “Best Electric Lawn Mower Under £200.” With a solid methodology and a public winners page, merchants proudly display badges, issue press releases, and link back to your site.We dig into the playbook: how to craft objective scoring, create a badge and media kit, write compelling winner blurbs, and build award pages that naturally attract links. We share examples from comparison sites that use awards to get merchant links that are topically spot‑on and hard to replicate. You'll hear practical tips for scaling from a lightweight launch to full ceremonies, and why physical trophies and livestream announcements dramatically increase participation and coverage. We also cover outreach, PR timing, and ethical guardrails so your awards remain credible and defensible.If you've ever considered spending five figures on link buying, you'll see how reallocating a slice of that budget to an awards programme can produce safer, stronger, and longer‑lasting results. By the end, you'll have a step‑by‑step path to design categories, ship badges, and turn recognition into backlinks, brand searches, and press mentions that compound year after year. Enjoy the episode, and if this helps you rethink your link strategy, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a quick review to tell us what award you'd launch first.SEO Is Not That Hard is hosted by Edd Dawson and brought to you by KeywordsPeopleUse.com Help feed the algorithm and leave a review at ratethispodcast.com/seo You can get your free copy of my 101 Quick SEO Tips at: https://seotips.edddawson.com/101-quick-seo-tipsTo get a personal no-obligation demo of how KeywordsPeopleUse could help you boost your SEO and get a 7 day FREE trial of our Standard Plan book a demo with me nowSee Edd's personal site at edddawson.comAsk me a question and get on the show Click here to record a questionFind Edd on Linkedin, Bluesky & TwitterFind KeywordsPeopleUse on Twitter @kwds_ppl_use"Werq" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
October brought a wave of AI-driven browser launches, shopping enhancements, and ad platform updates, and Jeremy and Emily are here to break down what matters most. In this episode of The Click Brief, they cover OpenAI's new ChatGPT Atlas browser, Google's visual and conversational shopping experience, Amazon's top-of-search reserve share of voice, TikTok's attribution improvements, and Meta's major Q5 lead gen upgrades. They also hit Perplexity's new free browser, Meta's EU ad-free subscription tests, and the official sunset timeline for Google call-only ads. This episode is your October cheat sheet for staying ahead in AI-assisted search and performance media.Top TakeawaysOpenAI ChatGPT Atlas Browser:A new Chromium-based browser with ChatGPT built directly into the interface. Agent Mode allows ChatGPT to take actions across pages like clicking links, filling out forms, and comparing products. Optional browser memories save past preferences and searches. Imports bookmarks, history, and passwords for fast setup. Windows version expected in 2026.Gemini in Chrome + Perplexity Comet Browser:Google adds Gemini tools directly inside Chrome for AI-assisted searching and task completion. Perplexity makes its Comet browser free, offering source-backed answers and agentic research features. All three AI browsers (Atlas, Gemini, Perplexity) are becoming interchangeable—worth testing to compare how each interprets queries and results.Google AI Mode Adds Visual + Conversational Shopping:Search using text and images, refine results with follow-up prompts, and browse product feeds powered by the Shopping Graph. Behaves like a customizable mood board for apparel, décor, and lifestyle shopping. Highlights the importance of accurate Merchant Center titles, attributes, and updated product imagery.Google Sunsetting Call-Only Ads:Advertisers can no longer create call-only ads after February 26. Existing call-only ads will fully stop serving in 2027. Encourages deeper reliance on call extensions, strong landing pages, and chat tools for conversion paths. Affects industries like legal and services that heavily used call-first funnels.Amazon Reserve Share of Voice for Sponsored Brands:Allows brands to lock in top-of-search Sponsored Brand placements for branded keywords at a fixed upfront cost. Pricing is shown instantly based on keywords and date range. A strong option for brands defending category leadership and preventing competitors from overtaking branded queries.Meta Q5 Lead Gen Upgrades:Adds email and phone verification tools to reduce accidental submissions and improve lead quality. Simplifies CAPI and CRM connections. Introduces better nurturing workflows directly within Meta lead ads. A meaningful upgrade for advertisers struggling with low-intent or auto-filled leads.Meta Ad-Free Subscription Tests (EU + UK):Meta begins testing paid, ad-free versions of Facebook and Instagram in Europe. No impact in the US yet, but important to monitor as platforms explore non-ad revenue models.Meta Business AI Tools:Sales Concierge: AI agent that answers product questions and guides purchases across Messenger, Instagram DMs, and WhatsApp.AI Business Assistant: Helps identify delivery issues, explains learning phases or disapprovals, suggests targeting/budget changes, and drafts creative inside Ads Manager.Amazon Branded Search Measurement:New insights include branded searches, branded searches from views/clicks, branded search rate, and cost per branded search. Provides better visibility into how top-of-funnel activity increases branded demand.TikTok Attribution Analytics:Adds a dedicated view to compare CPA and conversions across click and view attribution windows. Useful for aligning ad measurement with real buying cycles. TikTok also launches new travel-focused ad formats to meet growing travel planning behavior on-platform.Snapchat + WordPress Catalog Sync:New integration allows automatic syncing of product data between WordPress stores and Snapchat catalogs. Reduce setup time, but verify product data accuracy before publishing ads.Jeremy's Tip:AI-mode shopping is only as strong as your product data. Keep Merchant Center images, titles, and attributes updated so Google can match user intent more accurately.Emily's Tip:Turn on Meta's lead verification features. Cleaner leads reduce time wasted on low-intent submissions and strengthen Q5 performance.Follow The Click Brief for fast, no-fluff performance marketing updates.Visit The Click Brief blog for more in-depth analysis and updates from October.

Open Tech Talks : Technology worth Talking| Blogging |Lifestyle
This episode is for entrepreneurs, small businesses, solopreneurs, creators, and consultants who feel overwhelmed by AI and don't know where to start. You'll learn how a completely non-technical founder used Generative AI to transform two businesses, pivot her career, and build AI-driven systems without writing a single line of code. In this episode of Open Tech Talks, host Kashif Manzoor speaks with UK-based entrepreneur Marnie Wills, whose journey with Generative AI began unexpectedly while franchising her children's PE business. A copywriting challenge introduced her to Jasper AI, and that single moment reshaped everything. Within two years, she used AI tools to fix messaging issues, transform her franchise model, exit her online fitness business, and finally launch her consulting practice. Marnie breaks down how she built her AI-first operating system using ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Abacus AI, and NotebookLM. She explains why customizing your AI, training it on domain knowledge, and owning your data matters for the coming wave of agentic AI. She shares a powerful real example: building a full CRM + GPT workflow for a keynote speaker in 90 minutes using no-code tools. The system identifies events, drafts applications, and enables a VA to manage the entire pipeline, an example of how AI amplifies human roles rather than replacing them. The conversation also explores ethics, the myth of privacy, overwhelm in SMEs, and the misconception that AI = automation. Her philosophy is simple: AI should amplify humans first.

When trying to grow your property management business, have you ever thought to yourself, "Man, it would be great if I just had more leads?" In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, property management growth experts Jason and Sarah Hull discuss the Leads Myth and how "just having more leads" will not actually help you grow your business. You'll Learn [02:06] The Myth of Needing More Leads [11:39] Leaks in Your Sales Pipeline [22:41] The Future of SEO with AI Quotables "Why do we call it the leads myth? Well, the myth is this lie that we believe that you just need more leads. And the assumption in that is that all leads are the same." "The more clarity you have, the less wrong stuff you're going to be doing." "Not all clients are equal, right? Which means not all leads you get are equal. You need to qualify them." Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive Transcript Jason Hull (00:00) Most of the industry is trapped in a cycle of suck. This is why most property managers suck in most markets. Maybe even you that's listening. We are Jason and Sarah Hull, the owners of DoorGrow, the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. For over a decade and a half, we have brought innovative strategies and optimization to the property management industry. We help people grow their property management businesses quickly. And our mission is to transform property management business owners and their businesses. We want to transform the industry, eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market, and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. Now let's get into the show. All right. So today we're going to be chatting a little bit about the leads myth that a lot of people believe. So if you have ever thought to yourself, I just need more leads. If I just had more leads, everything else would be great in my business. What do you have to say about that? Well, I think that is not the case. Okay. It's definitely not the case. And I also think almost kind of be careful what you ask for a little bit. getting a whole bunch of leads was never really the best. strategy anyway, unless you have people who are just picking up the phone and calling you and saying hey, I Would love for you to just manage my property. I don't have any questions. Here's my money. I just had a contract Those are leads I want but cold leads that are Not ready to go that need to be warmed up that have a bajillion questions That might not even understand why they want to work with you Specifically, yeah, I'm just not interested in those leads. And the other thing I think we need to discuss on this episode specifically is the changes that we're seeing because of AI. So AI is really great and also it's changing things very rapidly and leads and SEO that's very effective by this too. Okay. So. Let's get into this. So a lot of people believe they just need more leads. And the danger in that is if you really just think you need more leads, you're going to go out to the marketplace and talk to marketers and they're going to go, cool, I'll give you leads. And they will sell you leads basically. So why do we call it the leads myth? Well, the myth is this lie that we believe that you just need more leads. And the assumption in that is that all leads are the same. And they're not, they're not even remotely the same. So there's a couple of different frameworks that we usually talk about to kind of destroy the leads myth. One is the four Ds to revenue. Another is the cycle of suck we talk about and how people get stuck in growth. We talk sometimes about the pipeline leaks that you have in your pipeline. And we talk about the myth of SEO or internet marketing. And then we often talk about any others warm versus cold leads and then David versus Goliath. Okay. So we can tackle these all really quickly and go through each of these and maybe some other things will pop up as we go. Cool. Let's talk about all of that and then we'll talk about why AI has changed all of, really all of those things. Okay. That'll be in conjunction with SEO. All right, so let's go through these. And so for those following along, if you stack all these concepts, each one compounds your speed of growth. They're all related. And so these are frameworks that I love to share with clients to help them understand so that they don't make the mistake of doing the wrong stuff. The more clarity you have, the less wrong stuff you're going to be doing. The less you're going to be experimenting, the less you're going to be wasting time. And if you really wanna collapse time, the easiest hack is reach out to us and we can help you with all of this. We've been doing this for over a decade and a half. We have had hundreds of guinea pigs to figure this all out and we have over 100. case studies and testimonials more than anyone else in the industry. All right. Let's get into this. let's talk about the four D's to revenue. So these are four numbers when multiplied equal the gross revenue in your business. And I sometimes call them the four doors to revenue. And I showed four doors with a little multiplication X next to each of them equals your money. Right? So not all leads are equal. So the, these D's are, if you want to write them down, they each start with a D. It is Deals, doors, duration, and dollars. Okay? So the first is like how many deals is this client going to bring you? Not all clients are equal, right? Which means not all leads you get are equal. You need to qualify them. And how many doors are they bringing to the table? Or how many doors per deal are they bringing? And then the third D is duration. How long are they going to stick around or be involved in property management? is are they an accidental investor that's going to stick around for maybe a year, or are they in the buy and hold game and they'll be around for 10? And then the last D is revenue or is dollars. And so are they a cheapo? Are they a premium buyer? Where do they kind of fit? Or are they somewhere in the middle, like the normals as I call them? So we've got these four Ds. So let's play a quick example. Let's take the accidental investor. They couldn't sell their property. They wanna get it rented out. How does this play out in the 4Ds? done one deal. They didn't mean to do a deal, but they did. And it's usually just one door. Maybe sometimes they have two, but very often we just see one door and they're not looking to... to do more deals because as soon as the market spikes and the market is hot, they're going to bail. They're going to sell, which means the duration is questionable. Let's say it's like one year, like if they can just get it rented. but it might be a few months because if the market spikes three months from now, they're probably going to dump that property pretty quick. And then. than the dollars, they're not your premium buyers. They're not looking to do a lot of improvements. They're not looking to spend a lot of money. They're the people who, they have this property, they aren't quite sure what to do with it. They figure, let's just see if I can get it rented. They want it well taken care of, but they're not generally looking to spend a lot of money or invest a lot of money in either the property or maintenance or repairs or improvements or a property manager. So they're just trying to... Do what they need to do. It's like the bare minimum in order to get a tenant. All right, so one, one, one, right? Like one deal, one door, one year duration, for example, if this is worst case scenario and you sign a one year agreement with them and they're a cheapo, right? Now let's take a really great scenario. What would be maybe an opposite scenario or a really great opportunity? Like my, I will say my second largest client. He had 42 doors I think was the right answer but I was looking to buy more. So when I took him on he had 42 by the time I sold the business he had 60 something. So he was always doing multiple deals. Yeah. The doors that he had came out of multiple deals. So since he did multiple deals he also had multiple doors. was consistently looking to grow. He didn't want to just stop, you know, at a certain point he was always looking. He also was a buy and hold investor. He wasn't trying to buy these things and then wait, you know, until the market spiked and then try to sell them and make a profit. He wasn't up for the long term. And he was not a cheapo. He wasn't trying to cut corners. He wasn't trying to cut costs. You he wanted to work with. a property manager, wanted to take care of the properties and make sure that they were being maintained properly. Yeah. Okay. So that's a great example that previous client that you had. So let's just say like on each of these fees, we use tens instead of ones, right? Like let's say they do 10 deals over the life of being with you. They've got 10 doors. Maybe sometimes it's 10 doors per deal if they're doing small multis or something like this, right? And then you've got a 10 year buy and hold duration. In this hypothetical example that I just threw out, it would be 10 times 10 times 10. This would be over a thousand times greater lifetime value than that accidental investor in our previous hypothetical. Does that make sense? So are these even remotely equal? No, not even remotely equal. Should you then spend the same amount of time trying to cultivate both of those type of leads? Probably not. Would you spend the same amount of time following up or giving them attention? Probably not. And the great investor clients probably are easier to deal with, less emotional, have a much higher margin and operational cost is lower, right? And so there's a lot of benefits. so this is, we're just talking about the revenue piece, but when we look at the cost side of things as well, everybody knows having a really bad owner that's really needy and difficult and emotional about the property. can be a big headache and a big challenge and you may be losing money on some of those doors. So, four D's to revenue, that's one concept. One quick thing I wanna add to that is where do you think these owners hang out? So, if you've got an accidental landlord and they are looking for a property manager, where might that lead come from? Versus where might the lead of a client that has 42 doors come from? There's a lot higher probability that an online lead is going to be an accidental landlord. It's not impossible to get an online lead that has 42 doors. It's just probably not your norm because the ones that have 42 doors, they aren't really dabbling. They aren't going, oh, geez, I wonder if I should get a property manager to maybe help me with these. They are just a little bit more savvy. A lot of times those aren't going to be the leads that you're getting if you're buying leads. Although those are the leads that you want, it's not going to be the norm that you get. All right, so we're 10 minutes into this. We're going to crank through some of the rest of these. So cycle of suck. Cycle of suck, real simple. If you take on any client, it leads to you having some bad clients. So if you take on bad clients, that leads to you having bad properties, which leads to having bad. Residents or tenants which leads to having a bad reputation or reviews which leads to you attracting more bad clients. So not all leads are good. You don't want to take on every client and you definitely don't want to attract or get more bad leads. And so this is a framework that if you understand you can reverse it and focus on a cycle of success where you're picky about the owners you take on, you're picky about the properties you take on, you're picky about the tenants which everybody tries to do anyway. but those first two steps are supremely important. And then you're going to have a methodology for getting more positive reviews. These are things we help our clients with. And so then you create a cycle of success. Most of the industry is trapped in a cycle of suck. This is why most property managers suck in most markets. Maybe even you that's listening. We want you to get out of the cycle of suck. All right, let's talk about the pipeline leaks. Okay. So usually if I were drawing, I would draw a spigot or a faucet or whatever you attach a hose to, and then I would draw a hose, and then I would draw a little plant or tree that you're trying to grow at the end of the yard that this hose is trying to get water to. Most of you listening think, I just need more leads. This is where the lead Smith becomes really obvious, trying to turn on that faucet even more. I just need more water flowing through the hose. That would make sense, that would be true unless there's a problem with the hose, right? Like the hose has some leaks. And if the hose has some major holes in it, there's not going to be a lot coming out the other end. Sometimes very little at all. And so it's not about how many leads you're getting, sometimes it's just how good is your pipeline? How tight is your product? And so we need to make sure that we get those leaks shored up. And we'll just mention what they are real quick, but. One of the earliest ones that affects you is just awareness. It's going to be your perception and reputation online. It's going to be your website. It's going to be your branding. So they can tell that you are in this industry and that it's clear that that's your focus and it's not real estate or something else. And what else? Your culture and purpose. This is the actual product that you sell. So that is another one. And there are two more. Pricing. Pricing, which everybody's trying to price the same way, 10 % or worse, pure percentage, or they're doing flat fee. We have a different innovative pricing model. If you're curious about that, set up a call with our team. We can tell you about it. That allows you to close more deals more easily at a higher price point. And the last is the pitch, right? Selling. And so if you can dial in each of these leaks, what we've noticed over the years is we can double a company's close rate without changing the amount of leads or lead sources that they're getting currently if we can get those things dialed in. And that's significant. Maybe you don't need more leads. Maybe you just need less leakage in your pipeline. Cool. All right, the next one, you had mentioned warm versus cold leads. Do you wanna explain the difference? Yeah, we can talk about warm versus cold. So when I had my property management business, Yeah. what is a cold lead? So cold lead is someone who really has almost zero, very little familiarity with who you are in your company and your brand and what you do. They don't. they should work with you. That's the big thing is why they should work with you. So they don't know you, trust you or like you. That's a cold lead. And a warm lead. Warm lead would be something like a referral or some sort of recommendation. hey, Sarah is the best, I work with her and you should too. Now they're coming in already feeling like, somebody that I know that I trust recommended this person, so therefore I should also trust this person. So those obviously have a much different close rate. And there are things that you can do to increase your close rate or to warm up deals, of course. But if you're spending all of your time trying to close a bunch of cold leads, which generally is going to be what happens when you're purchasing leads, you really don't get to buy warm leads. Right. They're all cold. I mean, that would be great if you could, but when you're buying leads, you're usually buying a lead that is very cold. They don't know you at all. And oftentimes that same lead is being sold to multiple different companies. There's a lot of blood in the water there. So warm leads versus cold leads, the close rate on warm leads will be really high, like 90 % or higher. Cold leads, like the opposite, 10 % or worse. And so I would rather a client get five warm leads and maybe close four of them than 10 cold leads and maybe get one. The hidden pain point or secret with warm versus cold lead generation. or cold lead strategies is time. Cold leads take a massive amount of time because you have to nurture them and warm them up and build the trust and create the relationship. And even after all of that, and all of sudden done, the conversion rate's really low. So all of you know how high the close rate is if you get a really great word of mouth referral. We love those, right? That's a warm lead. So we have strategies and methods that we focus on with clients to increase the warm leads. while avoiding and doing cold lead advertising and avoiding worrying about cold leads. Once you start getting some growth engines installed for your business that give you warm leads, you're not going to want the cold leads. They feel like garbage in comparison, and you're not going to have time for them. And you're not going to wanna waste time on those because those are often the worst owners. All right. What I would say is as far as getting leads in, if you give me three warm leads, I will take three warm leads over even 100 cold leads. Sure. don't, I don't, I'm not really interested because even if I close, let's say two out of the three warm leads, that's great. What's the close rate on 100 cold leads? If it's about 10%, you might close 10. And some of you might be going, Sarah, 10 is better than two. Yeah, you're right. But how much work did it take for me to close the two versus how much work? did it take for me to close the 10? I would rather close two very easy warmed up leads because I can do that again and again and again. So in the same amount of time, I can close way more warm leads than I can cold leads. So I would rather take three warm leads than a hundred cold leads any day of the week. We have a sponsor for this episode. Many of you tell me that maintenance is probably the least enjoyable part of being a property manager and definitely the most time consuming. But what if you could cut that workload by up to 85 %? That's exactly what Vendero has achieved.

Step up your property management game with Vendoroo. Visit Vendoroo.ai slash door grow today and make this the last maintenance hire you'll ever need. All right. I thought it was a good time because it was a good time. Waste of time and I don't like to waste time and maintenance coordination can be a huge waste of time. Yes. All right. Let's talk about David versus Goliath. So I'll give you an example. We've got a client. that has, so this is dumb David versus smart David, right? The story of David and Goliath, if you're not familiar with the Bible. David goes to fight Goliath. These two warring nations send out their best person and David decides he is not going to wear the armor, the sword, the shield, all the heavy stuff. He's just bringing out his slingshot. He's got his sling, he's got some rock and he goes out to fight Goliath and he's like, I don't need all that stuff. What most property managers do is David basically brought a superior technology. He brought a gun to a sword fight and he was good at this. He trusted himself. He had skill. He had a better tech to beat this giant. He flung the rock right into the guy's head. I had knocked him unconscious or killed him, I don't know. And then he chopped the guy's head off with his own sword. Right. And so that's the story of David and Goliath. So let's talk about the dumb version of David. Like if David wasn't smart. And he said, I'm going to do all the same stuff. I'm going to use the sword of SEO and the shield of pay per click and the helmet of content marketing and the breastplate of social media marketing. And I'm going to do all the same stuff, digital marketing that all the other big companies are doing that are spending two to $3,000 a month or greater. I'm going to go compete with them as a small startup or a small pro. two to 400 unit property management business and try and compete with these big companies that have thousands of doors. One of our clients, as an example, came to us has 6,000 doors. They were spending $30,000 a month doing these strategies to try to grow and it wasn't even working for them. So why would you go and do what the big guys are doing and lose the battle with them and it's not even working for them, right? So that's the idea of David and Goliath. Don't go do what the big guys are doing, find a better way to compete, especially if you're smaller than them. You don't wanna try to outspend them, because that's not going to be possible. right, myth of SEO. All right, and we'll talk a little bit about the future and AI, all right, to wrap things up. So, all of you can go check this out for yourself. This is not me making stuff up. You can go on trends.google.com. You can go look up property management. date it, the time period, to the current time back to 2004, to the present. And you can filter by the US if you want to. What you'll see is that property management search volume, the amount of people searching for property management on Google has not increased since they started tracking data back in 2004. What has increased? The Goliaths, right? The companies spending a lot of money on digital marketing trying to do all this stuff. And so it's created a lot more competition. So this is where we get into another framework that we share, which is the blue ocean versus the red ocean. There's this small little area of the ocean that's red bloody water where all the sharks are fighting over the worst fish, which are these terrible property management business owners that are at the end of the sales cycle. Basically the crappy scraps that fell off the word of mouth table that the warm lead stuff has captured. They're what's left over. And so there's these ugly gross fish and the sharks are all fighting over the worst stuff. And there's this huge ocean full of fish in the U.S. 60 % are self-managing. There's tons of business out there. And so the myth of SEO is basically this, that in order to win the game, you need to have the top spot on Google. Not true. You don't even have to show up on Google in order to go out and be able to create business. Because there aren't really people searching for property management. It's very small. So you don't need to be found on Google. You need to go find owners because the best clients are offline and they're not looking for you and they don't like doing property management and they need you, but they're not looking for property management actively right now. And you can figure out how to go make that happen and we can teach you, right? So let's talk about the future of AI. What are we noticing? Well, I don't think it's any surprise. messed up a lot of Yeah, it's changing everything. AI is going to change everything. And if you haven't noticed it yet, just hold on because you will. It's crazy if you haven't even seen it yet. But it's it's going to flip everything you know upside down, including SEO. Yeah, including SEO. So everyone that is like, no, I don't care. I'm still going to do SEO. That's the only way to go. Like we made a video about this. specifically for this reason, but even the ones who are still clinging to SEO and you just can't let it go and you don't know that there's another way and maybe you don't believe it and you're like, no, I'm no, this is the only thing I'm going to do and I'm going to do this and that's the only way I can grow the business. That is all right and SEO is going to force you to look at that. Okay, yeah, so what we're seeing is search volume on Google is going down. There's less people using Google. More people are now going to LLMs like ChatGPT, Clod, Perplexity, Google's Gemini. So people are using tools now, sometimes within software, and they're using these tools to ask questions, to figure things out, figure out who they should use or who they should choose or what they need. And so Is it still relevant to have good reviews? Yes. Is it still relevant to maybe have some SEO stuff going? Probably, but it's certainly on the down slope and it's certainly decreasing. The game is changing. Even if you search on Google now, the AI at the top will respond to your search request anyway. And a lot of people are just reading that and not really looking at the results below. And so this is the new future. It's changing very quickly. and some are calling it AEO, some are calling it LLM, SEO, there's all these different phrases that are coming out. If you want to do a quick experiment, open up one of these LLMs like ChatGBT. Don't be in your own. It's a large language model. It's basically all these different AI chat tools. So go into ChatGBT. Everybody should be familiar with that by now if you're not. and go to ChatGPT open that up, but make sure you're not logged in or you use a different account and just, or say don't use any of my previous data or open a private window and say don't use any of my previous information or data and say who's the best property manager or what property manager should I choose in X market, right? And see if it comes up. See if your business comes up and see what shows up. And so this is... how people are kind of doing some of their research, but all the stuff we just talked about still applies. Don't think your whole goal needs to be LLM SEO, where you need to start getting these chat tools to tell people. Why? Because most people are not looking for a property manager. They're not looking. They are not trying to find you. That's the mistake most people make. The majority of people that are self-managing, the potential business, are not looking for a property manager. It's really rare that somebody has a property manager that they're looking actively for a new one unless they've really done a bad job or stolen money or done something really obvious. The people that need your services are not looking for you. You need to be looking for them. And so this is where you can skip all of the cold lead marketing. You don't need to spend money on SEO or AI SEO or Google Ads or pay-per-click or any of these marketing agencies, you don't need to spend any money and you can actually grow faster if you use our strategies and it costs you nothing to do the strategies that we give you. It costs time and action, but it actually takes less time because warm leads and focusing on more effective strategies give you a much greater result in less time. So less time, less money, more results. And that's why we call it the Leadsmith. A lot of people think I just need leads. Cool. there's better ways. Not all leads are equal and we can help you out. Cool. Anything else we should add in wrapping up? I don't think so. I think we covered everything. Okay. I think we got it. So cool. Well, if you are wanting to figure out how do I grow this business? How do I finally get out of the rut that I've been in? How do I scale this? Maybe adding more doors is creating you grief and pain and you want freedom from your business. These are the things we help clients with. We'll help you figure out how to grow dramatically faster and we'll help you figure out how to make your business scalable while getting you out of the day to day and getting you to exit the business in various ways so that you get more freedom.

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross breaks down why B2B marketers need to rethink their bottom-of-funnel strategies. Traditional review sites like G2, Capterra, and TrustRadius are losing ground in high-intent search queries—and Reddit is stepping up to take their place. Ross explores how Reddit outperforms review platforms in organic reach, how it's shaping AI results, and exactly how brands can build a strategic, valuable presence on the platform. If you're still spending five figures a quarter on legacy review listings, this episode is your wake-up call to adapt or fall behind. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. The Changing Buyer Landscape - The death of traditional review sites: G2, Capterra, and others are losing organic influence. - Buyer behavior has evolved: Reddit is becoming the go-to source for real, unfiltered reviews. 2. Reddit Is Now Dominating High-Intent Search - Keywords like “best X software” are now leading to Reddit threads. - Reddit is outperforming review sites on SERPs and AI-generated insights. 3. How AI Tools Are Using Reddit for Context - LLMs like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity reference Reddit threads for information. - Partnerships with Reddit make it a key AI content source. 4. Why Reddit Comments Are More Trustworthy - Real debates and discussions offer depth that polished reviews lack. - Even negative experiences can influence AI answers and user perception. 5. The New B2B Buyer Journey - Traditional buyer path (→ G2 → demo) is being replaced by Reddit-informed decisions.Example: Users choose tools based on multi-comment threads and user anecdotes. 6. The 3-Step Strategy for Brands to Navigate Reddit - Create a Brand Subreddit (or claim existing ones via moderators). - Establish an Official Reddit Account (use Reddit Pro). - Build a Branded Persona who engages in other subreddits as a real user. 7. Tactical Tips for Reddit Marketing - Repurpose content: Post blog entries in the subreddit with keyword-rich, helpful commentary. - Host conversations: Ask customers for Reddit reviews. - Build a safe space with consistent value. 8. Balancing Risk & Authenticity - Reddit is not just SEO; it's a community with a low tolerance for corporate spin. - A well-managed presence drives pipeline—but failure to engage authentically can backfire.

Amazon is suing Perplexity AI over its Comet shopping agent, claiming it "covertly accesses Amazon customer accounts" and interferes with the curated shopping experience Amazon built over decades. But is this defensive move from the e-commerce giant actually a sign of things to come? Waqas Khan from A&M breaks down the technology protocols at stake, why this feels like a classic incumbent vs. disruptor battle, and how advertising revenue is driving Amazon's aggressive response. Chris argues this is Amazon playing the role of the 1990s brick-and-mortar retailer fighting e-commerce, while the panel debates whether this lawsuit is a negotiation tactic or the first salvo in a long legal war over agentic commerce.

Today, I'm talking with a very special guest: Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web. Tim is a legend in the history of the internet. He created HTML and HTTP. It doesn't really get more foundational than that — Tim was there at the very very beginning of the modern internet. He also has a new memoir out called This Is For Everyone: The Unfinished Story of the World Wide Web. So Tim joined the show to talk about the state of the web, as well as his current work at the decentralization startup Inrupt, and, of course, where AI fits into the conversation.
