Sydney SEO Collective - Frederic Chanut (The AI Attribution Gap)

The Sydney SEO Collective is back for our November 2026 meetup! After a month off in October, we're returning with a question every SEO is being asked right now: what is AI search actually worth? This month, we're thrilled to have Frederic (Freddy) Chanut, Founder and Executive Chairman of In Marketing We Trust, as our keynote speaker. He'll be presenting "The AI Attribution Gap: What AI search is actually worth." AI assistants read everything we publish and send almost nobody back, and our analytics stack was never built for that trade. Most teams can now tell you whether they show up in AI answers. Very few can tell you what that visibility earned the business. In this 30-minute talk, Freddy will present seven instruments that turn the question from "are we visible" into "what did it earn". The first four are free, and you can have them running by Friday. The next three are about getting your answer heard in the boardroom, so you can walk into your next budget conversation with numbers instead of screenshots. Freddy is a Sydney SEO industry veteran and founder of In Marketing We Trust, where he works at the intersection of search, data, growth and AI. He's spent over 15 years looking at the web through Google's Goggles, holding CMO, Managing Director and head of inbound marketing roles along the way. Today he helps mid-market and enterprise teams across APAC build growth engines and teams for their businesses.

The feedback we've had is that the Collective events have been a great way to meet others in the industry in a relaxed environment and share some tips and hints on what you might know that can help them become a better web marketer or developer. It's about asking those tough questions and getting group consensus on what is the possible implications or complications on a particular method or technique you're thinking of using. We encourage a mix of business owners, web developers, affiliate marketers, SEM and SEO professionals as we all have small tips that will help you perform better online and play smarter. SEO Collective is just a relaxed and informal session on digital and web marketing, come along and meet others in your community no matter if you're a business owner, consultant, in-house or part of a larger agency. ## RSVP now to claim your free ticket!

Scenes From A Friendship

SCENES FROM A FRIENDSHIP. By Jane Upton Outhouse Theatre What if the greatest love story of your life wasn’t a romance? “I don’t know who I am without you. You're the custodian of every version of me.” It’s 1987. Kylie’s about to hit number one, and Jess meets Billy. They quickly become inseparable—the kind of soulmates who finish each other’s sentences and overshare about first kisses. Then life happens. Across four decades of love, loss, family and change, Billy and Jess discover that staying friends can be every bit as complicated as falling in love. Written with extraordinary warmth, wit and compassion, Jane Upton’s Scenes from a Friendship is a funny, tender and deeply moving play about the people who witness our lives, shape who we become and remind us of who we’ve always been. Please purchase your own tickets via the link below & ONLY THEN RSVP ATTEND. https://purchase.oldfitztheatre.com.au/EventAvailability?EventId=2201 The show starts at 7.00 pm so I will meet you about half an hour before.

Extreme Positivity 2.0 - Overflowing Generosity

We live in a world where bad news travels fast, fear grabs our attention, and negativity has had decades to occupy our mental real estate. What if, for once, we turned the tables? What if we flooded our surroundings with so much goodness that it became impossible not to know it, feel it, and be it? Welcome to "Extreme Positivity 2.0 - Overflowing Generosity" where we take our best finds and see what happens when we broadcast it on everyone around us. This isn't about pretending life is perfect or forcing ourselves to be happy. It's about deliberately creating hope for hope's sake, then seeing what happens when this new energy gives people permission to flourish, heal, and become positivity beacons themselves. Expect more expressions of goodness than you've ever experienced packed into 3 hours. Some of you will immediately know you need this right now as you read this invitation. Others might not realise how much they've needed it until afterwards because sometimes, the busyness of life gets in the way of noticing, appreciating and sharing good news. Because positivity isn't just something we can cultivate within ourselves. It's something we can give and multiply... **Who is this for?** * anyone surrounded by toxic environments or negative people * those who need to communicate optimism and convince others to embrace positivity, whether professionally or as a business owner * people who would benefit from connecting with a diverse network of humans working to make the world a better place in different fields **What will happen?** * exercises to discover what brings people to life and learn what makes each other tick * team challenges that turn feelings of joy, awe and ecstasy into expressions of goodness for others to experience * simulations to explore and practice the power of words, thus honing in awareness of how the way we communicate matters a lot **What will you get out of it?** * leave very, very, very positive about yourself and others * learn techniques and tools to make positivity feel more natural and become your new default * gain a greater appreciation of your own influence in the world 🎟️ This is a ticketed event.
