AI is changing the way customers find local businesses—but technology alone isn't enough.
In this episode of Giants Helping Giants, Lois Wyant sits down with Kenny Perry, founder of Organic Mindset Agency, to discuss how local businesses can stand out by combining strong branding, Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), SEO, AI-powered marketing, and custom business dashboards.

He also shares one of his favorite tools—a custom dashboard that helps business owners organize operations, automate communication, track projects, and improve customer service.
