The Death of "Googling" and the Birth of "Asking"

For the last 20 years, if a customer needed a lawyer, a mechanic, or a realtor in San Pedro, they did one thing: They typed a few keywords into Google and scrolled through a list of blue links.

That era is ending.

We are moving from the "Search Era" to the "Answer Era."

Your customers are starting to bypass Google. They are opening ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and asking complex questions like: "Who is the most trustworthy estate planning attorney in the South Bay who specializes in small business?"

The AI doesn't give them a list of links. It gives them one single answer. It acts as the expert. If the AI doesn't know who you are, or doesn't trust your data, you do not exist.

Enter G.E.O. (Generative Engine Optimization)

In Episode 6, we talked about "Geo-SEO" (Geography). Today, we are talking about a new acronym: GEO (Generative Engine Optimization).

This is the art of convincing AI chatbots that YOU are the authority they should cite.

So, how do you convince a robot? You can't just stuff keywords into a website footer anymore. The AI is too smart for that. It wants to see Conversational Authority.

Why Video Podcasting is the Ultimate GEO Strategy

This is why we built Voxel Micro Video Labs. This is why we are pushing video podcasting South Bay entrepreneurs need so desperately.

AI models are trained on data. The highest quality data is a human expert answering a question clearly, verbally, and visually.

When you record a Q&A format video podcast at Voxel, you are creating the exact type of content that ChatGPT loves to consume.

• The Format: You ask a question (e.g., "Is now a good time to buy in San Pedro?").
• The Answer: You give a clear, spoken, expert response.
• The Result: When a user asks the AI that same question later, the AI recognizes your video as the definitive source and cites YOU.

Don't Build a Business for 2015. Build it for 2030.

We didn't buy the historic JC Penney building to preserve the past. We bought it to secure your future.

The window to establish yourself as the "AI Authority" in your niche is open right now. Most of your competitors are still posting photos of their lunch on Instagram. They are fighting the last war.

You have the chance to own the future. You have the chance to ensure that when the world asks, "Who is the best?", the AI answers with your name.

The Series Conclusion: Your Move

We have given you the roadmap. We have built the facility. We have gathered the community.

The lights are on in the studio. The cameras are focused. The microphone is live.

The only thing missing is your voice.
