Welcome to Marketing Masters - The Art and Science of Modern Marketing. In this episode we cover a very hot topic! The way people search is evolving. Google still dominates in volume - billions of daily searches - but it’s no longer the only game in town. AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude are quickly becoming alternative starting points for search.This shift isn’t about replacing Google, it’s about expanding how and where people discover brands and your business/brand being everywhere where potential customers are. From TikTok and Instagram to Amazon and AI chatbots, we’re entering the era of 'Everywhere Optimisation'.

So, how do businesses ensure they’re visible across all these channels? To help us unpack it all, today’s guest is Richard Conway - founder and Managing Director of Pure SEO, one of New Zealand’s top digital agencies and a 2024 Google Premier Partner. For over 15 years, Richard has helped Kiwi businesses master online visibility. He’s also a columnist, speaker, investor, and mentor.
