My latest in person podcast interview was a fun one! I had a blast being a guest on the Iowa Business Podcast where I break down: - Why AI search is overrated for most small businesses - Owned vs rented distribution - Why trust signals drive AI Search & LLM visibility - Video first content is the new foundation - Why packaging matters more than volume Be sure to drop a like/comment to help support their channel 🤝

My latest video interviews Adam Sandler, who is an AI marketing expert with Fortune 500 experience. Adam breaks down how he taught himself Claude Code with no technical background, and how he built an AI-powered CMO agent for competitor research, content creation, and other marketing tasks. Adam also screen shares his Claude Code setup in this video. Be sure to like/comment/share if you found this helpful 🤝

I have been turning over an idea for a while and decided to just start building it. I am setting up a YouTube channel showing how I actually use AI tools to run my social enterprise. Not theory. Just what I do day to day, from client comms to content to course delivery. The difference is who it's for. Most AI content assumes you have unlimited time and energy. This is aimed at people running a business alongside something else, whether that's long-term health conditions, caring responsibilities, or simply fewer hours in the day than most. No technical background needed. Starting from the very basics. It comes from my own experience. I run MHScot mostly solo, with limited capacity, and AI changed what's possible for me. Felt worth sharing that honestly rather than adding to the hustle noise. Very early days. Channel is set up, no videos yet. Curious whether anyone here has seen this angle done well, or has thoughts on what would be most useful to cover first.

I have a client who I do email marketing for. An e-commerce business here in Germany. They used to have a freelance designer who helped with their marketing. Once the business owner became aware of Nano Banana he decided he does not need the designers services any longer. This has two effects: - He is saving costs, yes. - But the quality of his designs has noticeably suffered. And this is something I see a lot. With designs, with copy, probably with code coming next. A race to the bottom in terms of quality by using AI in an effort to reduce costs. Will it be worth it for the business? Hard to tell. Maybe we will see two kinds of businesses, one with low quality, somewhat exchangeable outputs. And then on the other hand premium brands with high quality human made content.
