AI Made Content Effortless, But Effortless Content Doesn't Get You Seen with Special Guest Wes Towers 

AI made content effortless. But effortless content doesn’t get you seen.
Because when everything is easy to publish, it’s also easy to ignore. And the real casualty in the AI age is trust.

In this episode, Jonathan sits down with Wes Towers (Uplift 360) to talk about what actually cuts through the digital haze: a clear point of view, human texture, and storytelling that feels lived-in, not manufactured.

Wes shares a surprisingly powerful exercise that starts with your behind-closed-doors frustrations about your industry and flips them into your strongest differentiator. The stuff you can’t stand becomes the signal that attracts the right people and quietly repels the wrong ones. Which is not a bug, it’s the whole point.

We also unpack why the old funnel is eroding, what Wes calls “search everywhere optimization,” and why your website still matters, just later in the decision journey. If you’re tired of posting into the void and ready to build authority that feels earned, this episode is your playbook.

What You’ll Learn

• Why AI content created a trust drought and what to do about it
• How to uncover your differentiator using “the dark side” of your industry
• Why a grounded contrarian point of view is a visibility cheat code
• What “search everywhere optimization” is and how it works across platforms
• Why people hit your website later now, when they’re closer to buying
• How stories and case studies add weight, warmth, and credibility
