How Should Search Leaders Navigate the AI Shift?

Organic traffic down 30% while revenue holds flat points to an attribution problem, not a visibility problem. Jordan Koene, CEO and Co-Founder of Previsible, former CEO of Searchmetrics Inc. and former Head of SEO and Content Development at eBay, advises nearly 100 enterprise clients through the shift to AI discovery. He outlines why synthetic prompt-based visibility scores should give way to lagging KPIs such as revenue, conversion, and product-category attribution, with first-party revenue, sales, and signup tables as the source of truth for what drives brand selection. He also covers a brand-asset hygiene framework (help centers, pricing, and about pages, plus review volume and freshness, citation coverage, and backlink freshness) and a "follow the money" budget approach that keeps Google as the core channel while funding ChatGPT citation work.
