Winning the AI shelf with UGC

The brand leader’s playbook for product discoverability

The question for brand leaders is no longer how they can be discovered and chosen by consumers alone, but by the AI platforms they increasingly use to guide their shopping journey. This change has tremendous implications for brands, and the levers that drive their visibility today and tomorrow. The good news? You have already invested in one of the most powerful of these levers: user‑generated content (UGC). This playbook will teach you exactly how to make it work harder for your brand. Inside, you’ll: - Find new data from Bazaarvoice and EMARKETER that shows which points of the shopping journey consumers are turning over to AI and which they aren’t. - Understand the foundational role UGC plays in determining what AI surfaces in search and shopping experiences. - Learn a clear, step‑by‑step framework for optimizing your UGC to compete harder on the AI shelf. This isn’t about reinventing your content strategy—it’s about making the content you have work hard. Download the playbook now!
