The self-funding AI bubble: how artificial intelligence became a closed circuit of capital and belief
Search the phrase "AI bubble" and Google hesitates, then starts completing your thought: "is AI a bubble", "will AI bubble burst", "AI bubble 2025". That’s not coincidence. It’s collective intuition surfacing. The world has begun to suspect what markets still deny: that much of the AI boom isn’t organic demand, but a feedback loop, a self-funding circuit of capital and narrative.
The 5% club: why some companies succeed with AI in business when 95% fail
Most AI projects fail. The MIT report says 95% collapse before showing results. But a small 5% succeed and they follow the same disciplined playbook: strategy-first adoption, integration into workflows, clean data, people training, measurable outcomes, and human oversight. Here’s how your business can join the 5% club.
AI isn’t failing. Businesses are failing to incorporate AI into operations.
When MIT publishes a study saying only 5% of companies succeed with AI, the headlines scream: “AI is failing.” That’s not the truth. AI isn’t failing. Businesses are. The problem isn’t the technology. It’s how companies try, and fail, to incorporate AI into operations.
In its 2025 report The GenAI Divide: State of AI in Business, MIT found that 95% of companies adopting AI fail to see measurable impact on revenue.
That’s a staggering gap.

How to optimize marketing spend without slowing growth
You may feel you spend too little on marketing—and that thought tends to linger, quietly anxious and sticky. But the truth is, most companies don’t spend too little; they spend in the wrong places. Learn how to optimize your marketing spend without slowing growth, and how smarter digital systems can make every euro work twice.
Where are your low-hanging fruits? Digital profit levers hiding in plain sight
Digital profit levers are underused systems and processes inside a business that generate measurable gains in revenue, efficiency, or margin without major new investment. They include customer reactivation, workflow automation, CRM integration, and improved retention strategies. These opportunities are often overlooked while companies focus on new campaigns, tools, or hires.
Sam Altman, the dead internet theory, and what it means for business leaders
OpenAI’s Sam Altman now says he’s “starting to think” the dead internet theory might be true. Nearly half of online traffic is bots, AI is flooding search, and traditional SEO is collapsing. For executives, the danger isn’t theory—it’s invisibility. This article explains what’s really happening, why AEO is replacing SEO, and how leaders can protect trust and visibility in a synthetic internet.

How AI search decides which brands to trust
AI search no longer ranks, it trusts. What's coming is completely different from the old Google ranking model. Models like ChatGPT and Perplexity decide which brands deserve attention based on structure, coherence, and reputation. Learn the five dimensions of AI brand trust and how to make your business discoverable in this new trust economy.
Is AEO just standard SEO? What Google won’t tell you, and what most businesses can’t do
Not long ago, I saw a guy who sells an online SEO course release a video saying that AEO (for Answer Engine Optimization) is a myth. That you don’t need it. That it’s just regular SEO with a fancy name. And to prove it, he quoted a Google rep… and pulled up websites like the New York Times.
That immediately made the argument feel off track. Because the problem isn’t that AEO is hype. The truth is that SEO is only viable if you’re already a media machine. Let’s have a look in
How to track your brand’s visibility in AI answers (and improve it fast)
AI is rewriting visibility. Rankings still exist, but decisions now happen inside ChatGPT, Copilot, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
There, visibility means being named and cited. To measure it, run a 10-minute audit: test real queries, record mentions and citations, and track deltas monthly.
Fix crawl access, add structured data, and publish answer-first content. Read our latest article for tips, tools and guidance.
AI Brand Visibility
Effective lead generation platforms that actually move pipeline
Chances are you're not losing leads because of a visibility issue, but rather because of a speed issue. Indeed, most businesses we see just respond too slowly. Five minutes of delay can kill nine out of ten opportunities. Harvard Business Review proved it years ago, and it’s still true today. That’s why effective lead generation platforms aren’t about “capturing traffic.” They’re about building response systems that engage fast, qualify accurately, and feed data back into you
Integrated marketing systems: boost your business while keeping your marketing costs low
We're soon in 2026, and standing out is no longer about just having a website or running ads. It’s about creating a powerful marketing engine, a coordinated infrastructure, that works together like a well-oiled machine, even when you sleep. In other words, integrated marketing system (IMS). Beyond buzzwords, they’re the backbone of modern business growth strategies and delivery. If you want to transform your online presence into a lead-generating powerhouse, this is what you
What makes a website good or bad, not visually but performance-wise?
A good website builds trust instantly. It tells the visitor: "We understand your problem, we know what you’re looking for, and here’s exactly what to do next."
A bad website doesn’t just frustrate. It sends a subtle but damaging signal: this company doesn't have it together. It's not deliberate, but it’s enough to make someone bounce and choose a competitor.
And then there’s the worst category: the site that looks fine but performs poorly. It loads. It displays. But it does
Websites & Marketing Ecosystems
Forget the business model canvas. Your brand is the real ceiling on your growth.
Most companies think they have a brand. In reality, they just have a service with a label. Here’s the test: does your company name include your service? If yes, you’ve already built your own growth ceiling.
This article introduces the Brand Hierarchy—Vision Brands, Styled Services, and Commodity Companies—and explains why no business model canvas or template will help if your brand identity is missing. Your business model matters, but your brand determines whether you can g
What is content strategy, and why it helps serious businesses grow
Ask ten people what content strategy means, and you’ll get ten variations.
Most think it has something to do with blog calendars, social media posts, or SEO plans. Wrong. While all of those can be part of a content strategy, they’re not the core.
Content strategy is not about what you publish. It’s about how you organize your communication to serve a clear business goal across time, touch points, and teams.
In other words, content strategy is not a campaign or a checkli
Understanding the differences between a Brand Manager vs Marketing Manager
A question that we get often is: "What's the difference between a brand manager and a marketing manager?" The answer is, while both play crucial roles in the growth and success of a company, their responsibilities, goals, and techniques differ significantly. Failing to understand this distinction for a company can lead to inefficient resource allocation, inconsistent branding, poor strategic planning, decreased brand equity, reduced market competitiveness, employee role confu
