Is SEO dead? With click rates plummeting and AI chatbots taking over search, traditional marketing tactics are failing.
In this episode, Saul Marquez (Outcomes Rocket) joins Simon Severino to reveal why "tactics are the noise you hear before the war is lost" and how to pivot your strategy for the age of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). Learn why 99.3% of content cited by AI models like ChatGPT and Gemini comes from open-access sources and how to restructure your marketing into the "Brand House" framework.
What You Will Learn in This Video:
β’ SEO vs. GEO: Why Generative Engine Optimization is the new "tip of the spear" for visibility.
β’ The AI Source Code: New research reveals that recency and non-paywalled summaries are the key to getting cited by chatbots.
β’ The 3 Pillars of Growth: Why you must prioritize Owned and Earned media before ever spending a dollar on Paid ads.
β’ Strategy Sprints: How to dominate niche keywords by guesting on podcasts rather than relying solely on paid campaigns.
