Agentic Funnels
October 30, 2025
Brands don’t need another trend—they need traction. This year’s search data shows people actively looking for practical, outcome-driven AI (“best AI for ___” queries like coding, writing, math, and image generation dominate), proving intent has moved from curiosity to execution.
Google Trends At the same time, Google’s outlook highlights five forces reshaping marketing and ops: multimodal AI, AI agents, assistive search, AI-powered CX, and tighter AI security. If you’re planning content or campaigns for Q4/Q1, align to those five and you’ll be relevant by design.
Why this matters now
AI agents are the new channel. They don’t just chat; they plan, call tools, and complete tasks. Use them for lead qualification, product Q&A, and internal knowledge routing. Early adopters are reframing funnels as “agent-assisted journeys,” reducing time-to-value.
Multimodal wins attention. Searchers and buyers expect text, image, and video in one flow. “AI for image generation” sits among top “best AI for…” interests—so bring AI visuals into ad creative and PDPs to test more concepts with less cost.
Shifts in discovery. With AI summaries rising, zero-click experiences are increasing; your content must be answer-ready and brand-distinct even when clicks don’t happen. Repurpose key insights into structured FAQs, how-tos, and short video explainers. New York Post
A simple playbook
Storyboard before you scale. Draft a 10-scene AI storyboard for each core offer: hook, problem, reframed solution, proof, micro-demo, CTA. Generate variations fast, then A/B the first 5 seconds across channels. (Multimodal = higher test velocity.)
Localize intent, not just language. Pair AI translation with cultural reframing: new hooks, visuals, and examples per market. Start with your top 3 countries by revenue and ship weekly iterations. (Use Trends “Related queries” to find local phrasing.)
Agentify customer touchpoints. Spin up a lightweight AI agent for pre-sales FAQs and spec matching. Measure: resolution rate, time-to-first-answer, and handoff quality. Expand to post-purchase how-tos next.
Answer the zero-click. Make every article skimmable: executive summary up top, structured steps, then a 60-second video recap. Publish the video snippet where your audience searches first. New York Post
Want a 14-day sprint to ship your first agent + multimodal campaign (storyboards → visuals → video → localized CTAs)? Let’s build it, test it, and hand you the playbook.
