Welcome to “Pirate’s Booty” – a curated stash of local marketing news and content for your reading pleasure.


For a long time evergreen articles were considered the gold standard for delivering steady content. But do AI search summaries now make them obsolete?

This article dives into that topic and explains it all:

Are AI Search Summaries Making Evergreen Articles Obsolete?

Indeed recently did a study seeing which job roles were most exposed to AI. Unsurprisingly, marketing roles were the 4th highest!

This just shows how important AI is and will continue to be for marketers. If you’re interested in reading more, you can do so here:

On this week’s Aloha Friday Coaching call, we went live for:

                    Getting Cold Email Responses In 24 Hours Or Less—Here's How!

As you may know, this week we went live for the Smart AI Launch Lab.

And one of the things I did during this training is actually look around and find businesses to reach out to. On day 2 I reached out to six of these businesses.

And guess what?

Yesterday, less than 24 hours after reaching out one of those businesses responded.

That's without using a custom email domain or customizing the emails in any way. It could not have been easier or more barebones of an approach.

It just goes to show you… if you have the right strategy and follow it through, you will make progress.

And on this week’s Aloha Friday Local Marketing Coaching Session, I showed you how it's done so you can begin bringing in oodles of prospects.

The replay is up now and you can tune in here:

Attended the School of Hard Knocks. A former restaurant manager in Oklahoma, Tom always wanted to be self-employed and free from the butt-smooching of the corporate world. He wanted success bad enough that he picked up his family, including two small children and moved to beautiful Maui, Hawaii. Starting from zero, Tom embarked on building a local marketing consulting business. And promptly fell on his face! It seems Hawaiians were lovely people, until you tried to sell them something! But he persevered and learned from his mistakes. Today he's arguably one of the most successful in his niche and expecting to grow over 100% this year alone.
