From Appliance Store to Industry Powerhouse: How Steve Sheinkopf Built Endless Trust
When Steve Sheinkopf took over Yale Appliance, he faced the same threats as every other retailer in his industry—shrinking margins, online competitors, and supply chain chaos. But instead of playing defense, he made a bold decision: to stop selling and start teaching.

In this powerful on-stage segment, Steve shares how embracing the principles of Endless Customers transformed a struggling, one-location appliance store into a $100+ million media-powered brand. From mandating content creation across his company to publishing data the rest of his industry was too afraid to touch, Steve proved that radical honesty and buyer empowerment aren’t just buzzwords—they’re a blueprint for growth.

You’ll learn how to remove friction, build trust before the first call, and create a sales experience that feels helpful, not pushy.

Boost Your Brand’s Answer Rank: Avoid Disappearing in the AI Era

AI isn’t coming for your traffic—it already took it. In this bold and timely session, Patrick Moorhead, author of Answer Rank, exposes the invisible shift that’s reshaping search, trust, and discovery in real time. Traditional SEO is quietly collapsing as buyers increasingly rely on AI platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini to answer questions directly—skipping links, sites, and your entire funnel. If your brand isn’t cited, synthesized, or surfaced inside those answers, you’re not just underperforming. You’re invisible.

This session will walk you through the emerging measure of whether AI systems recognize your brand as an authoritative voice. You’ll learn how to build it through Large Language Model Optimization (LLMO), adapt your content formats for AI visibility, and create a presence across the distributed ecosystems that feed modern models. 

Following the presentation, IMPACT Website Strategists Mary Brown and Janet Mendez-Latouche will "throwdown" a few audience member websites live! They'll offer critiques and suggestions on optimizing websites for Answer Rank and the AI-driven future of search.

It’s all about using technology to work smarter, move faster, and stay aligned as a team.
