Description

The customer journey has transformed from a linear path to a chaotic "choose your own adventure" experience as AI becomes increasingly embedded in search processes and content discovery.

• Zero-click search has fundamentally disrupted traditional marketing as users get answers without visiting websites

• Quality content with unique insights and authentic perspectives remains essential despite AI advancements

• The traditional marketing funnel concept is outdated – customers enter and exit at various points across multiple channels

• B2B purchases involve complex buying committees with different stakeholders at various stages in their journey

• AI propensity scoring helps predict customer behavior and personalize content experiences effectively

• Accessibility principles align closely with AI-friendly content practices – clear, concise, well-structured content wins

• Content must ultimately connect with humans, regardless of how it's discovered or delivered
