That’s the type of customer feedback culture that ZINTEX Remodeling Group has built.

While reviews have always been an important part of marketing, AI is cementing the need to high-quality customer reviews if you want to get recommended.

So it’s time to build a repeatable strategy that brings those reviews in the door.

You get curious about how your buyers find you through AI.

With the data still somewhat unclear, we’ve seen that businesses that get curious about how AI thinks find the clarity they need for the next step in their marketing strategy.

Take Shane Rogers from ZINTEX Remodeling Group

His team went into an incognito browser and started asking AI:

“Who is the best home remodeler?” in each of their markets. Then, “What made you recommend them?”

As straightforward as this seems, this practice can give you insight into how AI is reading your market and what you need to do to maintain visibility in those types of conversations.

This is just one piece of the conversation that Shane and host, Bob Ruffolo sat down to discuss on the Endless Customers podcast.

The bigger story is that Shane and his team have been able to double their reviews from 2500 to over 5000 reviews in just two years. 🎉

A huge win for AI visibility.

A buyer’s search may begin in ChatGPT, but their decision often takes shape across several different channels.

In a study of 50 people observed using ChatGPT to shop, most participants left the platform to verify what they found through Google or social media before making a decision.

That behavior carries an important lesson for businesses: AI visibility is only one part of the buyers journey.

The information buyers find in ChatGPT needs to hold up when they search for your company, visit your website, read review reviews, and explore your social presence.

Every channel contributes to the trust behind the final decision.

Bob and Ruan Marinho, CEO of Splashdash AI and Develomark unpack what this means for businesses in this episode of the Endless Customers podcast.

Which leads us to ask:

Do you go verify an answer you find in ChatGPT?

There might be easy content opportunities inside your business you haven’t tapped into yet.

For example: your sales calls.

those are real questions getting asked by your buyers, and your team is answering them with specific, helpful information.

So, what if the subject of those calls just became your next article? Social media post? Email?

CEO of Splashdash AI and Develomark Ruan Marinho sat down with Bob to share how he is helping clients build content workflows that turn sales calls into 15 articles a week.

And it’s not content for the sake of content.

It’s the type of content that’s helping businesses gain AI visibility and get found by the right buyers.

Give this episode a listen to see how he does it.

Brain McVicker leverages HubSpot to keep an eye on all of those things that easily slip through the cracks.

The results are there to back him up.

Paragon is seeing shorter sales cycles, more sales engagement, and better reporting by leaning into automation, segmentations, workflows, and AI inside of HubSpot.

“If it’s not in the CRM, it doesn’t exist.”

Many leaders are probably guilty of this exact phrase. It’s usually paired with a push to get sales teams to document everything inside the CRM.

And historically, sales teams and CRMs don’t always get along.

That’s why Brian McVicker at Paragon leaned into automation inside of HubSpot to demonstrate to sales team members that the CRM can fuel their goals and their earnings.

With that, their team was able to reduce sales cycles by nearly two-thirds.

In this episode, Bob sits down with Brian and Jess Palmeri, our director of HubSpot training, to talk about how leaders can get sales teams into the CRM in a way that makes sense, saves time, and drives real revenue wins.
