If you run a small business, you are probably being told you need to be everywhere AI is right now. Get ranked in ChatGPT. Show up in Google's AI overviews. Chase the new thing before your competitors do. It is a lot of noise, and most of it ends with you spending money on something that keeps changing under you.

In this episode, Stephan Bajaio explains why he calls chasing LLM rankings fool's gold, and what to do instead. Stephan spent 25 years in SEO, co-founded the enterprise platform Conductor, and now runs the agency VibeLogic.

He covers why your own content is the one thing you can actually control, why he treats PPC like day trading and SEO like superannuation, the silo problem that quietly wrecks marketing teams, and how to map where your buyers actually form opinions before they ever land on your site.

Your host is Jeremy Yang, founder of Australian digital ads agency Digital Goliath. Each week Jeremy talks with operators and specialists about what actually works for small businesses running paid ads.

When you're running a small business, storytelling can feel like a luxury you'll get to once the sales are sorted. But the businesses that last tend to build trust long before they ever ask for the sale.

In this episode of Marketing & AI for SMEs, Jeremy Yang talks with Linsey Houston of Storytellers Australia about where storytelling actually fits for a small business.

They get into the difference between brand building and sales activation, the 60/40 split between the two, why early-stage owners should at least document what they're doing, brand equity as an asset you build over time, and why AI makes original storytelling more valuable for standing out.

Marketing & AI for SMEs is hosted by Jeremy Yang, founder of Australian digital ads agency Digital Goliath. Each episode brings on a specialist to share practical thinking for small and medium business owners. If you're working out where branding and storytelling sit next to your paid ads, this one's for you.
