AI is everywhere – it’s on our phones, it’s in our cars, and it’s definitely having an affect on how customers find your business online. On this episode of Small Business Small Talk, hosts Ian Messinger and Lauren Schenk discuss the growing power of AI with Hibu's Chief Information Officer Ira Klein and Senior Project Manager Gretchen Ast.

They talk through AI's evolution, including machine learning (supervised and unsupervised) and generative AI, and they delve into how Google's AI-generated answers (AIO) has already changed the search results page in a big way, and the importance of SEO, local rankings, and E-A-T (Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) for small businesses.

They also discuss all the ways Hibu is using AI to help clients improve content quality, avoid time-wasting robo-calls, and streamline customer review generation. Hear why it’s important for your small business to adapt to AI's evolving role in search and customer engagement, and how Hibu can help you take the next step.

Hibu has enhanced its digital marketing solutions by adding advanced optimization to the client’s Google Business Profile (GBP) which will increase online visibility for Hibu’s small business clients.

RC Thompson, Hibu’s AVP of Digital Product Management, walks us through the reasons why GBP optimization is crucial for any digital marketing campaign, and how Hibu is optimizing clients’ profiles.

With the rise of AI-generated content, having a complete and accurate GBP profile is increasingly important for small businesses to differentiate themselves from competitors. Hear how Hibu’s enhanced GBP optimization will help generate new leads and customer reviews for Hibu clients.

Craig Plummer, Director of Traffic Product Development at Hibu, joins us on the podcast today to discuss how Amazon Ads can support service based small business.

Starting in mid-2023, Hibu had the opportunity to partner with Amazon Ads to test Sponsored Display with a group of Hibu clients. Sponsored Display leverages Amazon Ads’ rich audience insights built from shopping and streaming signals, advanced AI, and machine learning technology to engage audiences across Amazon, Twitch and thousands of apps and websites.

Sponsored Display has long been used by businesses that sell on Amazon but recently expanded to include businesses not selling in the Amazon store – including many of the types of local businesses that Hibu specializes in helping, such as home services contractors, consumer services, automotive services, and travel and hospitality.
