Impacts of AI Search Changes on Accounting Professionals

Google search is no longer just a list of website links—it is now an AI recommendation engine. For bookkeepers and accountants, this creates two major challenges: 1.) It changes how potential clients find us online; 2.) It creates inconsistent search results when we are researching critical tax and 1099 compliance rules.

In this session, Ken Dickinson will help us explore both angles. You’ll discover how to optimize your business for AI-driven search, learn best practices for verifying financial data in an AI world, and get a quick guide to alternative traditional search engines such as DuckDuckGo and Brave.  Secure your spot to future-proof your practice!
