I got my sh*t together and I went viral 🫣😆

The feeds are full of AI generated content right now.
And people are switching off.

78% of people say they can’t tell what images are real anymore. Consumer trust in AI content has dropped from 60% to 26% in two years.

But here’s what’s cutting through all of it…

A real face. The actual human behind the business.

I know because I was terrified to be that person.

I manage social media for other businesses. I push every single one of them to get on camera.

And I hadn’t posted on my own account in six months.

So I changed my approach. Completely.

Swipe through to see exactly what I did, the results it got, and what that looks like for your business.
If this landed for you, follow along.

There is a lot more coming in this series.

For most of my career, I had a very clear answer when someone asked whether they needed a website.

The conversation was simple.
People needed somewhere to learn about your business, understand your services, and decide whether they trusted you enough to become a customer.

Then AI arrived.
For the first time in 15 years, I found myself rethinking that answer.

Because the way people find businesses is changing in real time.

Today, someone can ask ChatGPT a question and get recommendations in seconds. They can compare options, research providers, and narrow down choices before they ever visit a website.

That raises an interesting question…
If AI can provide information, what role does a website play now?

AI can help people find you.
But it still needs somewhere to learn who you are, what you do, who you help, and why your business deserves to be recommended.

And when someone eventually clicks through, they still need confidence that you’re the right choice.

If anything, websites are becoming more important.

For years, we built websites for people.
Now we’re building them for people and AI.

The businesses that do well in the next few years won’t be the ones with the cleverest marketing.

They’ll be the ones that are easiest to understand.
By people and AI.

Curious whether you’ve changed the way you think about websites since AI arrived…

Choosing brand colours from a colour chart can feel weirdly stressful, hundreds of tiny squares, and somehow you’re meant to pick the “right” ones.

Here’s the thing: inspiration doesn’t live on a chart.
It lives in your favourite room, the café you always go back to, photo from a trip that still makes you pause.

Look at the places/things that already feel like you, capture it, that feeling is your starting point.

And this works for more than just colour.

No fully fledged brand yet? The same trick gives us a direction for your whole website
- layout, mood, the way it should feel.

Avro Sheet Metal website now live and already kicking goals!

I know what you’re thinking.
Yeah, yeah. SEO. I’ve heard this before.

Stick with me for a second, because most people nod along and then keep going with a website that’s working at about 40% of its potential. And I don’t want that for you.

So before we get into it, try this.
Think about the last time you searched for someone. A tradie, a specialist, a service you needed. You typed something into Google. Maybe you asked ChatGPT. Maybe Siri answered before you even finished the sentence…

You didn’t scroll through 6 websites comparing every single one. You clicked the first result that felt relevant, had a clear message, and looked like it knew what it was doing. And you made a decision pretty quickly.

That’s exactly what your potential clients are doing right now.

And if your website wasn’t built with structure, clear messaging, and the technical foundations that help Google and AI understand what you offer, you’re not even in that conversation.

Here’s what’s usually missing:
* Clear messaging that tells search engines exactly what you do
* SEO structure that gives your pages a reason to rank
* Schema markup so AI tools can read and recommend your business
* A layout that guides people to actually say yes

Design is the last step. Visibility is the foundation.

If your site was built before any of this was considered, it’s probably working at half capacity.
That’s worth knowing.

New website live for Avro Sheetmetal — a custom sheet metal manufacturer based in Albury that has been operating since 1977.

This one was a great project. A local trade business with a strong story, a brilliant team, and a clear point of difference against the big national suppliers. Our job was to make sure that came through in the copy and design.

Custom copywriting, full custom website with custom coding for a unique design finish and seo for high visibility.

Head over to avrosheetmetal.com.au to see it live.
