The takeaways
What you will learn
AI answer engines weigh people as well as pages. When a model builds an answer, it leans on named experts whose credibility it can check across independent sources, and it gives a signal more weight the further that signal sits from the brand’s own control.
For marketers, that makes influencer and expert programs a direct input to AI visibility. Traditional ROI metrics like CPC, views, impressions, and click-through no longer capture the full value of an influencer partnership.
This session covers how that works in practice. We’ll look at Petra Labs citation data on employee and creator content across LinkedIn, YouTube and Reddit, including how often it gets cited and where it shows up next to brand-owned pages.
We’re also excited to be joined by Kaleigh Moore who helps leading brands solve these exact problems. You’ll leave with a concrete plan that you can begin actioning on immediately to drive growth for your brand.
