Cooney, and joining me today is Kevin Indick. Growth advisor to over forty companies, including G2, Ramp, and Airbnb. Today we're talking about why most teams are approaching AI search wrong, what actually drives visibility, and how to build influence beyond your own domain. As our industry transforms, what's the one skill set that we all have to master?
Kevin Indig 0:46
Meta thinking. And meta thinking because I think what's critical is to be able to take a step back and reflect on your thinking and your behavior and whether you're still working on the right stuff.

Time for a one-minute break to hear from our sponsor, Previsible. So you're looking for SEO help, then you got a couple of options. You could start replying to spam from agencies that claim they can get you to rank number one on Google. You can pay an hourly rate for a consultant who will inevitably nickel and dime you with hourly charges, or you can work with a cookie cutter agency to quickly launch a strategy-less project with low success rate. None of those sound very good. Now do they? Well, that's where Previsible's integrated consulting model comes in. Previsible draws from a collective 40 years of SEO and digital marketing experience to unlock your organic growth opportunities. They build custom solutions that combine strategy, technical expertise, content, and reporting to effectively operationalize SEO for your business.

Then they support you in your efforts to create quality content, help you identify technical issues, and most importantly, they'll work with your cross-functional teams to integrate your SEO strategies to make sure that your SEO budget actually drives results, not just your agency's bottom line.

Whether you still hold the right assumptions or whether you're too close to the screen, being conscious about how you spend your time, where you spend your time and and what you're working on is critical when you can work on anything.
