Today on the Search Hustle Podcast, we’re diving into something that’s shaking up the entire digital marketing world—AI. It’s not just a tool anymore; it’s becoming a co-worker. A really fast, always-on, data-obsessed one.

We're talking about how AI is transforming the way marketing companies get clients found online. It's not just about search engine optimization (SEO) anymore. We're now entering the age of "Search Everywhere Optimization."

As platforms evolve and content discovery happens in more places than just Google—like TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and even AI-driven answers—marketing strategies are shifting. William kicks off the discussion by talking about how AI has changed their workflow, especially in early research.

Dave has spent a lot of time engineering prompts that help identify a client’s audience avatar and value propositions by analyzing data like reviews, survey responses, and form comments. Instead of manually sifting through that feedback, AI now crunches the data and returns insights—statistically sound ones—that guide real decisions.

We used to rely solely on our branding teams for detailed reports that include unique selling propositions, multiple audience avatars, and company vision/mission. Now, we can feed raw info to AI and get eerily close to that same output—20-page decks full of actionable insight. It’s not a replacement, but it’s definitely a booster.

And it’s not just words. AI-generated imagery is getting better every day. You can now pair your brand strategy with visuals built through tools like Midjourney or DALL·E. The future isn’t human vs. AI—it’s human with AI.

🎧 Tune in to hear how four marketers are navigating the future of search and strategy—balancing the power of automation with the irreplaceable value of human judgment.

In this episode of The Search Hustle Podcast, Dusty, Dave, William, and Scott gather around the mics (in a very cozy attic setup) to talk about something a lot of businesses are still figuring out—how to make working from home actually work.

What started as casual Work-from-Home Fridays evolved into a full-on lifestyle shift. The crew breaks down how they went from a traditional office setup to fully remote operations, what the transition looked like logistically, and how everyone adapted with dual monitors, wraparound screens, and some surprisingly robust home studios.

You’ll hear candid thoughts on what’s working, what still feels weird, and why this wasn’t as big of a leap as it might seem from the outside.

🔍 In this episode:

Why WFH Fridays were the perfect soft launch

How the team built out their home studios in advance

Honest talk about productivity, collaboration, and comfort

Trade-offs and tips for teams thinking about going remote
