What’s inside (highlights)
-
3 Alternative AI Platforms (That Aren’t ChatGPT) — Meet Claude for clear client comms, Gemini for Google-powered research and ads, and Perplexity for source-cited content; plus an honorable mention: Midjourney for scroll-stopping visuals

Local Loyalty Reimagined — Trade punch cards and clunky apps for Apple/Google Wallet passes with instant offers, proximity nudges, and VIP tiers (pp. 9–15).
Stats that matter: repeat customers spend 67% more; a 5% retention lift can boost profits 25–95%; wallet-pass notifications see 60–80% open rates (vs ~20% for email). -
7 Under-the-Radar Marketing Tools — Practical gems like Postwise (never stare at a blank caption), Opus Clip (turn one video into many), TidyCal (simple scheduling), Local Falcon (map-rank heatmaps), Otterly.ai (AI search monitoring), Seodity’s Niche Finder (low-competition keywords), and Soovle (cross-platform ideas)
-
Social Media Isn’t Dead — It’s Just Different — What’s working now: short-form video, stories, and carousels on FB/IG; raw, helpful clips on TikTok; credibility posts and case studies on LinkedIn
