About

Kaylie Kartchner

Founder & Marketing Strategist

Marketing is changing faster than most businesses can keep up with, and that's exactly what I love about it. The rise of AI search, answer engines, and entirely new buyer behaviors isn't a disruption to navigate around. It's the opportunity.

I built Kartchner Advisory because I'm genuinely excited about where marketing is heading, and I want to help businesses get there before their competitors do. My approach leads with Answer Engine Optimization, making sure clients show up in AI-powered search, voice discovery, and the platforms redefining how buyers find businesses.

01

The Search Landscape Has Changed

Buyers don't just Google anymore. They ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other AI tools. Most businesses aren't showing up in those answers. That's your window.

02

Psychology Drives Every Purchase

The best marketing doesn't push, it pulls. Built on behavioral economics and sales psychology, every strategy I build is designed around how buyers are making decisions today.

03

Strategy Before Execution

Most businesses are executing tactics with no coherent strategy underneath. The audit fixes the foundation first. And in 2026, that foundation has to account for two distinct customers: the humans making buying decisions and the AI systems that influence those decisions before a human ever clicks.


The Service

The Marketing Audit

Modern marketing has two audiences: the consumers you're trying to reach and the AI systems that shape what those consumers find. This audit covers both. You'll get a clear picture of your AEO and AI search visibility, social media presence, content strategy, messaging, and overall marketing health, with specific, actionable steps you can actually move on. No fluff. A real plan you can execute for conversion.

Why Kartchner Advisory

Advisory built for marketing to
the modern customer and AI.

AEO-First Methodology

Most agencies are still optimizing for Google. Kartchner Advisory leads with Answer Engine Optimization, ensuring your business surfaces where buyers are actually searching today: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and voice.

Behavioral Economics Built In

Every recommendation is grounded in how buyers actually think and decide, not just what looks good on a dashboard. Strategy informed by cognitive psychology, not guesswork.

Dual-Audience Thinking

Marketing today has two audiences: humans and AI systems. Kartchner Advisory is one of the only consultancies building strategy that deliberately speaks to both simultaneously.
