Araminta Robertson is the Managing Director of Mint Studios, a content marketing agency for fintech and financial services companies that turns content into measurable pipeline. She joins the show to share how she built her specialism from a personal finance blog she started at 18 into a full agency, and what that means for how she thinks about content strategy today. She gets into the GPT framework her team developed for LLM visibility, why expertise-driven content is becoming more valuable as AI-generated content floods the web, and where AEO and SEO overlap - and where they genuinely conflict.
