We made ONE stupid simple change to pages that were already ranking… and suddenly we started getting cited everywhere: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, nonstop.

And yeah, it sounds too easy.

But this is the new game.

Clicks are dropping 20–30% across sites we’re seeing right now because people are getting answers without visiting your page. Ranking isn’t enough anymore. If AI is answering the query, the only pages that win are the ones it can extract and cite instantly.

Key takeaways:

• Clear H1 plus direct answer boosts AI citations

• Short, scannable openings help LLMs extract answers

• Optimizing top pages creates a compounding authority flywheel

The old B2B playbooks aren’t breaking. They’re just built for a world that doesn’t exist anymore.

We’ve been testing new strategies across our clients, and it’s clear the winners in 2025 will look different from the winners in 2023.

Creator-led content is becoming the engine for B2B. LinkedIn is turning into a distribution moat. And the teams adapting fastest are rewriting how they produce and package their message.

If you’re still relying on traditional “brand marketing,” you’re already behind.

In this episode, I break down how we’re driving high-intent traffic with ChatGPT SEO. The focus is simple: go after bottom-funnel keywords, earn citations from channels like YouTube and Reddit, and track where LLMs mention your brand.

It’s the playbook we’re using today to capture intent while the landscape is still wide open.
