Here are 6 short, but powerful things you should know:
- Google’s Next Big Move?
Google’s AI mode will soon be the default search experience
Google is quickly losing the search audience… and the AI search race.
So Google watchers expect it to happen soon.
- Two Major Marketing Changes for ChatGPT
700 million consumers using Chat AI now can buy products directly through ChatGPT from sellers on Etsy and Shopify. OpenAI is also planning to introduce ads within ChatGPT.
OpenAI has booked $4.3 billion of revenue in the first half of 2025 on $2.3 billion in cash burn. Open AI projects $13 billion in revenue this year.
- Posting Frequency Drives LinkedIn Growth
A new LinkedIn performance study shows that consistent posting frequency is the strongest driver of reach and engagement on the platform. Companies who post multiple times per week see higher follower growth and more visibility in the feed.
- Fox and Newsmax Charlie Kirk Memorial Viewers
Fox had the largest viewership of Charlie Kirk’s memorial service over two hours of worship and more hours of Christ-centered talks.
Newsmax’s live coverage of the Charlie Kirk Remembrance Service delivered over 8 million viewers tuning in across its television platforms, with over 6 million on the cable channel.
- Rethinking Response Analysis in a Multichannel World
Multichannel marketing has increased ROI… but measuring success is more complex.
That’s why marketers are replacing last-click analysis with multi-touch attribution.
Why?
Last-click models undervalue multichannel because they ignore its role in multiple channel marketing impact, discovery and consideration.
Multi-touch attribution can better reflect how multichannel influences the entire funnel, from awareness to conversion.
