How is AI changing product marketing?
AI is transforming every aspect of PMM: buyers now use AI agents to research and compare vendors, content must be optimized for AI discovery (GEO), competitive intelligence can be automated, and AI tools can accelerate messaging development, launch planning, and sales enablement. PMMs who master these AI skills will have significant career advantages.
What's the difference between SEO and GEO?
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) optimizes content for traditional search engines like Google. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) optimizes content for AI systems like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews that generate answers by synthesizing multiple sources. GEO requires different strategies including structured data, authoritative citations, and clear entity relationships.
