How to Win Trust, Earn Media, and Show Up in AI Search

Thursday, March 19, 2026 • Duration 35:21

AI search is changing how buyers find and trust brands—and most companies aren’t ready. In this episode, Clark Newby sits down with Robin Bulanti, CEO of Offleash PR, to break down what’s actually working in PR, branding, and discovery today.PR is back—but it never really left. As AI search reshapes how information is surfaced, credibility and third-party validation are becoming more important than ever. Robin Bulanti shares why earned media, brand trust, and clear positioning are now critical for showing up as “the answer” in both AI-driven results and real buyer conversations.The conversation explores how marketing has shifted from driving website traffic to building trust across multiple channels—many of which your audience already relies on before ever visiting your site. From niche communities to analyst reports to media coverage, brands must now take a more holistic approach to visibility.Clark and Robin also dig into what companies get wrong when hiring PR agencies. Too often, businesses look at PR as a box to check—without truly understanding their buyer, their positioning, or the level of participation required. Robin outlines the key red flags agencies look for, including unclear differentiation, lack of leadership buy-in, and the myth of the “dream publication” solving everything.-----CONNECT with us at:Website: https://leadtail.com/Leadtail TV: https://www.leadtailtv.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/lead...Twitter: https://twitter.com/leadtailFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Leadtail/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leadtail/----0:00 — AI Search & The New Way Buyers Find Information0:55 — Why PR Is Back in a Big Way3:06 — Trust, Credibility, and AI-Driven Discovery5:41 — The Shift to Clickless Buyer Journeys6:53 — Where Buyers Actually Go for Research Today9:30 — How PR & Marketing Strategies Are Evolving14:43 — Red Flags When Hiring a PR Agency21:47 — When to Hire a PR Agency (And When Not To)27:56 — The “Dream Publication” Myth + What Really Works
