Christi Olson, the Head of Evangelism for Bing at Microsoft joins Enterprise Radio to discuss future proofing for conversational AI. Since 2015, Christi has been annually recognized by PPC Hero and her peers as one of the 25 Most Influential PPC Experts.

Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Christi Olson discuss the following:

  1. What does the future of search and digital look like? How do you expect behaviors to change in the next 3-5 years that businesses should be aware of?
  2. You mentioned conversational AI, voice search, and voice assistance. What is the difference between Voice Search and Voice Assistance?
  3. Is voice assistance hype or will there be real economic impact through voice assistance?
  4. What is the opportunity with Voice Search? Can a business become the spoken response to questions that people ask Siri, Alexa, Cortana, or the Google Assistant?
  5. According to Amazon, there are over 30,000 voice skills available today. You mention that it’s an area of opportunity for growth but is it the marketplace already saturated and how should businesses think about Voice Skills as part of their strategy?
  6. Chatbots aren’t exactly new AND many businesses already have a chatbot on their website. What is the difference between intelligent chatbots and the bots that were created 3-5 years ago?

Tip: Consumer behavior is beginning to shift and change as consumers get more comfortable using voice assistance and conversational based technology. Stay ahead of the curve by starting to adapt your marketing strategies today and discover how to create more meaningful relationships with your customers through conversational AI based technology.
