Search Influence Co-Founder and CEO Will Scott will deliver a keynote presentation titled “AI Isn’t the End — It’s Your Next Beginning” at the Zenith Marketing Conference on Thursday, April 10, 2025, in Duluth, Minnesota.
This keynote will explore artificial intelligence’s pivotal role in shaping the future of search engine optimization (SEO) and digital marketing.

Attendees will gain valuable insights into integrating AI-powered analytics with human creativity, empowering marketers to thrive in a dynamic, technology-driven marketplace.
“AI in SEO isn’t replacing marketers — it’s optimizing their potential,” said Scott. “When I show people how to think about these new channels, they light up. They realize their skills do transfer. AI becomes less intimidating and more of a creative amplifier. That confidence is the first step toward staying relevant and getting ahead.”
