The Mindset Shift
Q4:
"Our competitors have spent 20 years building SEO and brand authority. GEO may give us a completely different route to being discovered."
Q6:
"A Fortune 500 company can personalize through enormous teams and infrastructure. AI may let us provide that experience with 50 people."
Q7:
"They have 500 domain experts. We have 20 people. Are we actually using AI to close that gap?"
Q8:
"Our competitor has 1,000 employees. Why are we designing our company as though we need 1,000 people too?"
Q9:
"We complain that we can't compete with their employer brand. Are we using AI to fundamentally change how we identify and engage talent?"
And here is the final question to reflect upon:
"If the incumbent notices what we're doing and copies the product, what have we actually built that they cannot easily copy?"
