The importance of Google search to the buyerâs journey has been gospel in marketing circles for years. You can argue until youâre blue in the face whether people start their journey with a Google search or use it to narrow down lists theyâve compiled from various sources, but thereâs little doubt Google plays a big role in the purchase process for all sorts of products and services. Today in MarTech, first-time contributor OcĂ©ane Li uses a simulated buyerâs journey to help answer the question: What happens when a buyer uses ChatGPT search instead of Google? As a reminder: AI tools like ChatGPT will be featured in a number of sessions at the virtual MarTech Conference coming up March 25 & 26, 2025. Check out the agenda preview and grab your free pass. You can participate from the comfort of your own desk, sofa or whenever you are. Mike Pastore Editorial Director |
