About the show

Photography education that aren't the same old interviews. We chat life, running a business, serving our clients, and most of all being a good human. I want you to have the life you've dreamed of and there's usually some gold down the tangents we explore. John Mansfield hosts the podcast as it's recorded LIVE so you can join the conversation too.

Maria-Katarina: AI Search and why your links matter more than ever | ep291

We're in the age of AI, from our chat bots, to our egg timers, to our search engines. And your potential clients are searching for you through AI search engines. AI search is very different than traditional search engines and today my guest is telling us all about how to show up better in those searches, while still creating a stronger and more trustworthy website. Maria-Katarina Johannesson helps brands show up and be seen (and trusted!) With 10+ years of experience in sales, she has an eye for both the business side and the human side of things. She believes that people don't choose the "best" brand, they choose the brand that feels the most aligned with them" ---- Join the Alignment Challenge Sept 28-Oct 2 and get a free first month at https://www.patreon.com/wittpod/redeem/4303A ---- Sponsor of the show: Imagen AI Get 1500 images edited for free when you try Imagen at https://imagenai.com/allheartphoto ---- Connect with Maria-Katarina instagram.com/linksandmaria linksandmaria.com ---- Follow the show Patreon: https://patreon.com/wittpod Website: https://podcast.allheartphoto.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/witt.pod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wisdominthetangents

Part two of more AITA stories for you, and I'm back reading them with Christine Wright. Christine and I share stories like these back and forth on Tiktok (along with so many funny cat videos and Halloween decor haha) so I just had to bring her on the show to share some Reddit stories.
