Get Visible in the Age of AI: More Than Rankings
Learn how to boost your online presence beyond rankings with an upgraded marketing & SEO strategy - let’s get you noticed!
Sunshine Coast business owners, ready to upgrade your old marketing playbook?
Join us in person for a fresh take on SEO and your wider marketing strategy, and discover how to improve your visibility in today’s AI-driven search landscape. We’ll explore how to stand out beyond rankings, get recommended by AI, and connect with the customers looking for you.
Because what happens when your customer asks ChatGPT or Google where to buy, book or hire? Does your business even come up? And if it does, is it coming up for the things you actually want to be known for?
OK… so how the heck do you impact that?
Here's a number that should stop you mid-scroll: 45% of consumers now use AI tools like ChatGPT to find local business recommendations, up from just 6% a year earlier (BrightLocal, 2026). Your customer asks, gets an answer, and maybe your competitor's name, without ever seeing your website.
This isn’t a future problem. It’s happening in search right now. And most business owners have no idea whether they’re one of the brands AI is recommending - or one of the brands AI is quietly leaving out.
Get Visible in the Age of AI: More Than Rankings is a hands-on 3-hour workshop for Sunshine Coast business owners who want to understand what’s changed in how people find businesses through ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews without the scare tactics and, more importantly, what to actually do about it.
No fear-mongering. No agency jargon. Just a clear, practical framework from people who live and breathe this stuff every day.
You'll walk away with:
✅ A clear understanding of how ChatGPT and Google’s AI search features decide which businesses get recommended and tactics to fold into your marketing strategy
✅ Clarity on the bigger picture and how SEO, digital PR, brand and social all contribute to whether AI recommends you
✅ A priority list ready to action Monday morning

AI Search & The New Visibility Layer
We’ll look at why AI search changes more than just SEO and why it’s time to rethink a marketing playbook built around clicks alone. We’ll unpack how SEO, brand, content, PR, social and authority all work together to influence whether your business gets surfaced and recommended, why AI and SEO shouldn’t be treated as two separate strategies, and how to avoid the agencies jumping on the AI bandwagon and selling business owners expensive “AI visibility” fixes they don’t necessarily need.

Why AI Visibility Still Starts With SEO
We’ll look at why an evolving SEO strategy remains fundamental to getting your business surfaced and cited in AI search. Before you can add the AI layer, you need the foundations right, from technical SEO and content structure to authority, relevance and how your business is understood across the web. We’ll explore what’s changed, what still matters, and how to evolve your SEO strategy so it works not just for rankings, but for the way people search and discover businesses now.
