Free Primer · 2026 Edition

Digital Marketing, SEO & AI Integration

A plain-English primer for business owners who want to understand the levers — not just hire someone to pull them.

From the desk of George Hinestrosa. Veteran owned. No jargon, no sales pitch, no drip-sequence waiting for you after this.

What's Inside

Four sections. Ten pages. Written for business owners running real companies — not for marketing professionals.

The Four Marketing Channels

Paid, organic, owned, and earned. What each one actually costs, where most owners overweight or underweight, and how to rebalance for compounding returns.

SEO, Demystified

The three levers every owner should understand — technical, content, and authority. Plus the five mistakes that quietly leak revenue every month, and why SEO matters more (not less) in the AI era.

Where AI Actually Helps

The honest version. Separating genuine leverage from marketing noise. Three questions to evaluate any AI tool, and the highest-leverage place to start if you're just beginning.

A Ten-Minute Self-Audit

A one-page checklist across digital marketing, SEO, and AI integration. Check the boxes you can say yes to. If you can't check three or more in any group, you'll know exactly where to start.
