You’ll discover secrets for motivating and encouraging people to do their “personal best” for you\, and find out how to discipline firmly and fairly\, without creating resentment.

SUMMARY:How AI is Changing the Way Your Customers Buy (And What to Do About It)
DESCRIPTION:4/23/2026\nYour buyers have a new secret advisor — and it’s not your sales team. It’s AI. \nEvery day\, buyers are asking tools like ChatGPT and Google’s AI Overviews the very questions they used to ask you:\n• “Who are the best suppliers for [your product/service]?”\n• “What problems should I watch out for with [your solution]?”\n• “How does [your company] compare to [your competitor]?” \nIf you’re not showing up in those answers\, you’re invisible — and AI is pointing buyers to your competitors instead. You don’t control what AI says. But you can shape the answers buyers see.\nIn this practical\, plain-English webinar\, you’ll get a clear plan to stay visible\, trusted\, and chosen. You will learn:\n• Why traditional SEO and marketing tactics are failing in the AI era\n• The five questions AI answers for your buyers — and how to shape those answers\n• What AI actually looks for when deciding which companies to recommend\n• A practical\, non-technical roadmap to turn AI into your competitive advantage
