In this episode of Local Marketing Beat, Uberall's Christian Hustle sits down with Celeste Gonzalez, Director of SEO Testing at RicketyRoo, to explore how AI search is reshaping local SEO and the customer journey.


Celeste brings a fresh Gen Z perspective on instant gratification in search, TikTok and Instagram’s role in discovery, and what AI-driven results mean for local businesses. She breaks down why oversharing details is now critical, how “know before you go” insights can make or break conversions, and why SEOs must become the glue between teams in the AI era.


From practical tips on making your business AI-ready to insights into how younger generations are using social platforms as search engines, this episode is packed with strategies for staying visible in a fast-changing landscape.
