• How We Use AI to Edit Content (Without Losing Your Company POV)
    Dec 22 2025

    (Sorry about the audio quality on this one, it was recorded with the wrong microphone-- this episode is better viewed with screen share on Youtube)

    Most teams struggle with AI writing tools because they try to use them as a replacement for writers (and they use tools that don't understand the core arguments of what is trying to be said).

    In this video, Devesh walks through a real example of how he uses our AI writing tool Wave Writer at Grow & Convert to edit and restructure content. You’ll see how a rough outline and half-formed ideas can be turned into clear, on-brand draft copy, without losing the core ideas and without hallucinations.

    The video covers:

    • How outlining arguments first leads to better AI output

    • How to speed up the editing and content creation process using Wave Writer

    • Why writing final prose is the slowest part of content work

    If you’re responsible for editing content, managing writers, or shaping content strategy, this video shows a practical way to use AI that supports thinking instead of trying to replace it.

  • LLM Citation Data: 86% of Sources are Industry-Specific (Not from Generic Sites Like Reddit)
    Dec 2 2025

    Are you focusing your AI visibility and PR efforts on Reddit, Wikipedia, and media sites like The New York Times? You could be wasting your time and money.

    In this episode of the Grow and Convert Marketing Show, we dive into the data from our new study on Large Language Model (LLM) citation patterns. We reveal why the advice you see on LinkedIn and in broad industry reports—telling you to chase large, general-purpose sites—is completely misleading for most businesses, especially B2B and niche companies.

    What You'll Learn:
    86% of citations are for industry specific sites vs. 14% for "general purpose sites": See actual data from our client base that shows 86% of LLM citations for niche topics come from industry-specific publications, while Reddit, Wikipedia, and YouTube account for only 14%.

    Differences in how to approach AI visibility for your brand vs. Household name brands: Discover why B2C household names (like Tesla and Peloton) do get cited on general sites, but your niche B2B software company won't.

    The problem with measuring random prompts: Understand how broad studies that use 5,000 randomly selected keywords are statistically biased toward consumer queries, making their findings irrelevant to your specific business goals.

    A New Tactical Framework: Learn the exact, actionable steps for a Citation Outreach strategy that works : how to choose the right topics, identify the actual cited domains using tools or manual checks, and target your PR efforts where they will actually drive AI visibility.

    Stop doing general PR and start showing up in the AI answers that matter to your bottom line.

  • Prioritized GEO: How Brand Should Focus Resources on AI Visibility
    Nov 11 2025

    Marketers are wasting time chasing the wrong AI tactics. Everyone’s debating “Should we post on Reddit? Add LLM.txt? Write summaries for LLMs?” — but missing the real priority.

    In this video, we introduce Prioritized GEO, our framework for how to actually show up in AI search (ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews). We break down:

    -Why owned content on your site matters more than offsite mentions

    -How to think about AI search visibility

    -What actually influences ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI overview results

    -And why most “AI hacks” (like key takeaways and LLM.txt) don’t move the needle

    If you want to understand how AI decides which brands to recommend — and how to position yours to be the one it chooses — this is the video to watch.

  • SEO vs. AI Traffic: What Our Client Data Really Shows
    Sep 24 2025

    Everyone says SEO is dead… but our client data tells a different story. We compare SEO traffic vs. AI traffic (ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.) and reveal what’s actually driving conversions — and why it’s not “SEO vs. AI,” it’s both.
    ___
    SEO is dead? Not so fast.

    In this episode, we share real client data comparing traditional SEO traffic vs. AI traffic (ChatGPT, Perplexity, DeepSeek, etc.). The numbers tell a very different story than the LinkedIn fear-mongering around SEO dying.

    -AI traffic is growing, but it’s still only ~3–5% of SEO traffic for most clients

    -Conversions often come from unexpected places (hint: not just ChatGPT)

    -Declines in SEO traffic don’t mean SEO is dead — they often show up as branded searches or conversions through other channels

    -Attribution is getting harder, but that doesn’t mean the channel stopped working

    We break down the myths, show the actual ratios, and explain why you shouldn’t buy into the “SEO vs. AI” narrative. It’s not either/or — they work together.

    If you’ve seen graphs going down and clients freaking out about AI, this episode will help you cut through the noise and actually understand what’s happening.

  • How SEO will Change with AI Search
    Jun 10 2025

    AI search is a fundamentally different search experience from Google, and the implications are massive for how people discover brands and products.

    Here's what we've discovered so far:

    - People don't just type keywords into ChatGPT - they have detailed conversations with tons of context
    - Top-of-funnel "what is" content is officially dead in AI search
    - Your positioning and value props determine if you get recommended (or ignored)
    - Specific pain point content now matters more than ever

    Key insights from this episode:
    ✅ How ChatGPT positions different companies (and why some get terrible descriptions)
    ✅ Why broad content strategies will fail in the AI search era
    ✅ The new content approach that actually gets you mentioned

    We'll show you actual ChatGPT conversations from prospects who found us, plus live searches showing how different agencies get positioned.

    The bottom line: AI search rewards specificity and clear positioning. Generic content and broad messaging will make you invisible.
