How to teach AI to love your brand portfolio

Online Masterclass

Following strong demand from our European audience, we're bringing this Masterclass to the US. Managing a portfolio of brands used to be a challenge of consistency and control. Today, it is something more urgent. AI has fundamentally changed how customers discover, evaluate, and choose brands. In a world where a conversational query replaces a search result, and a recommendation replaces a product listing, the question is no longer whether your brands are well-managed. It is whether they are even part of the conversation.

In this Vaimo Masterclass, PJ Utsi of Vaimo and Elisabeth Clark of Lippert explore what multi-brand strategy actually requires in the age of AI, and how forward-thinking organizations are turning a complex portfolio into a competitive advantage.

Key takeaways

  • Understand why AI discoverability has made brand clarity a commercial priority, not just a marketing one

  • Learn how leading enterprises serve each brand's identity while sharing infrastructure

  • Walk away with a practical path from fragmented brand management to a networked portfolio

We'll discuss

How AI has changed the rules of multi-brand strategy, and what that means for brand visibility and discovery

What an LLM-optimized brand portfolio looks like and how leading organizations are building one

Real-world experience from Lipperts Director of Web Strategy & Digital on managing a multi-brand portfolio at scale
