Welcome back to The Dealer Playbook Podcast! Today, we’re diving into a conversation that’s been setting the internet on fire: Is AI spelling the end of Google as we know it?

I’ve brought in my friend and digital marketing expert, Dave Spannhake from Reunion Marketing, to help us cut through the noise, separate fact from fiction, and give you a clear picture of what’s really happening in the world of search, AI, and dealership marketing strategies.

We’ve all seen the headlines, heard the hype, and maybe even felt a little panic creeping in. But here’s the thing: amidst all the noise, there are real, practical insights that can help your dealership not just survive—but thrive—in this evolving landscape.

Dave brings his signature mix of data-driven insights, relatable stories, and no-nonsense advice to break down how dealerships might unknowingly be overspending on ads, where the real opportunities in SEO lie, and why the human touch still matters in an AI-powered world.
