Frameworks, playbooks, and field reports on winning visibility in the AI era — from Answer Engine Optimization to AI marketing strategy to founder operating systems. Four current titles, all available on Amazon.
The 2026 Series — Current Books
Built for the AI era. Each book is a complete operating system for one discipline.
2nd Edition
Intro to Answer Engine Optimization
The complete framework for winning visibility in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews / AI Mode, and Perplexity. Citation Triangle, APON formula, evidence ladders, the 7-day quick start, and a 30/60/90 transition plan.
500 Ways to Use AI for Your Marketing Strategy in 2026
500 specific, tested AI marketing plays organized into 25 domains — strategy, audience research, content, paid, email, social, analytics, ops. The complete playbook for marketers who want results, not theory.
2nd Edition
The Blogger Guideline
An SEO, AEO and GEO playbook for the AI era. Voice, niching, the AI Writing Loop, E-E-A-T as a survival metric, and the platforms, monetization stacks, and rituals that make modern blogging compound.
2nd Edition
The Entrepreneur Guideline
How to thrive and survive as a founder in the age of AI. Wedge to MVP in 30 days, AI as your co-founder, building AI-native products, and the disciplines for sales, hiring, and unit economics in 2026.
Why these four books work as a system
Each book covers one discipline that compounds the others. Intro to AEO is the visibility engine. 500 Ways to Use AI for Your Marketing Strategy in 2026 is the operational playbook. The Blogger Guideline is the content production system. The Entrepreneur Guideline is the founder operating system that ties strategy, product, and growth into one accountable practice. Read in any order; cross-reference everywhere.
