Be AI's Choice: How Businesses Get Named in AI Answers
Capital Factory, 701 Brazos St, Austin, TX, USSept. ONLY - Date changed to Thurs. Sept. 3 - Captain America - 8th Floor for this monthly only!
Raja Sampathi spent 19 years in B2B operations and pricing at Deloitte, IBM, and 3M. Today he runs meanderingSapien, where he gets ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews to recommend his clients - attorneys, wealth advisors, CPAs, and professional services who win business by being the answer AI gives.Your next client is no longer scrolling through ten blue links. They ask AI a direct question, "who is the best contract attorney for a startup" - and take the answer. AI names four or five businesses. Either you are one of them, or you are invisible at the exact moment the decision gets made. This session breaks down SEO vs AI Search in plain English, and shows how AI engines actually decide which businesses to name.
Raja will guide you to audit your business live on AI Search engines. Then he walks through the exact playbook that moves the needle: question-and-answer content built for AI extraction, schema markup without writing code, page structure machines can actually read, and the trust signals AI weighs before it names anyone.What You'll learn:
- The difference between SEO & AI Search Optimization - and where the leverage actually is right now
- How AI engines decide who to recommend when someone asks for one
- The exact content and technical moves that make you citable - no coding required
Every attendee walks out with Raja's complete DIY guide, "Be AI's Choice," to run the full playbook themselves or hand to their team.
