SUMMARY:NEW! Online Discoverability: Search Visibility in the Age of AI
DESCRIPTION:Being discoverable online isn’t just about having a website or posting regularly. It’s about understanding how people search for art\, services\, and businesses\, and how search engines and AI tools find and interpret information. \nIn this workshop\, Jordanne Erichsen will introduce the basics of search visibility and how creative entrepreneurs can apply them across their online presence\, from websites and social media to podcasts and other platforms. \nParticipants will learn how to:\n\nUnderstand the basics of how search works and what influences visibility.\nIdentify the keywords and search terms their audiences and customers are actually using.\nApply basic principles of search-optimized content across online platforms.\nImprove their visibility in both Google and AI-powered search tools.\nMake their online presence easier for audiences and potential customers to find and understand.\n\nWhy attend?\nArtists and creative entrepreneurs often spend a lot of time creating content without knowing whether the people they want to reach will actually find it. Understanding how search works can help you make more informed choices about what you put online and how you describe your work. \nWho should attend?\nEmerging artists and creative entrepreneurs who want to better understand how people find them online and learn practical ways to improve their search visibility without needing to become digital marketing experts. \nWorkshop Details\nOnline Discoverability: Search Visibility in the Age of AI\nSpeaker: Jordanne Erichsen\, Founder\, CEO EXPRESS Voice Studio “ARTISTS WHO TEACH”\, Head of SEO\, Outsmart Labs\nDate: Wednesday\, October 28\, 2026\nTime: 6:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. \nReserve Your Spot!\nAbout the speaker\nJordanne Erichsen builds audiences. She spent the first chapter of her career doing it from a stage and has spent the second doing it in search.  \nClassically trained as an opera singer\, she earned a B.Mus in opera from the University of Regina and an M.Mus in opera from the University of Ottawa before relocating to New York City on scholarship to continue her studies under Dr. Michael Warren. Her expertise extends into vocal pedagogy and performance longevity. She completed more than 500 hours of formal training in the Alexander Technique\, studying through the BodyMinded program in Australia and at the Montreal Alexander Technique School\, and in 2014 launched The Singers Tension Podcast\, examining the mechanics of healthy\, sustainable singing.  \nIn 2018 she founded Express Voice Studio\, a national platform pairing emerging Canadian artists with private voice students. It was built on a conviction that has shaped her work ever since: artists require financial autonomy to sustain a creative life. The studio was structured to compensate its teaching artists well above the prevailing institutional rate\, and for many of its instructors it became the most lucrative teaching work of their careers.  \nThat work led her to the discipline she practices today. Jordanne is Head of SEO at Outsmart Labs\, a Miami-based digital marketing agency\, where she leads search strategy across the firm’s client portfolio\, directing technical architecture\, content strategy\, and the measurement frameworks that tie organic performance to revenue. \nSecure your spot today for only $20.00!* \nRegister Now!\n  \nPre-registration is required.
