People are asking AI tools who to call, where to go and which business is best for a job. Local business owners can now sign up for a Coffee & Connections workshop that shows how to appear in those answers.
The Nordonia Hills Chamber of Commerce will host the session Thursday, Nov. 12, from 8:30 to 10 a.m. Julie D’Aloiso of SpiderCat Marketing will present. Registration is now open, though the location has not been announced yet.
Search Is Changing
It is not just about a website or Google anymore. More customers turn to AI tools to ask who offers a service near them or which business fits their needs. Owners now face a new question. Will their business show up in the answer?
What the Workshop Covers
D’Aloiso will cover local search and how AI powered search affects visibility. She will also share practical AI tools for business. Attendees will see how Gemini can help create stronger social content.
The session is built for owners already using AI and for those still figuring out where it fits. Organizers aim to keep the information practical, useful and easy to apply.
A Chance to Meet the Chamber
The workshop is also open to business owners and professionals thinking about joining the chamber. Guests can meet other professionals, ask questions and make connections. They can also learn more about what the chamber offers.
Organizers describe the morning as networking, coffee, conversation and a little education.
