Faith Restored.

A few weeks ago, we received an unexpected email from a former client. Several years back, she went through an incredibly difficult season and had to close her business. During that time, she ended her services with 316 and, unfortunately, left behind a sizeable balance.

We never sent her to collections. That’s not how we have operated. Life happens, and we choose to lead with grace.

Out of the blue, she reached out, wanting to reconcile and honor her outstanding balance in full. Today, a check arrived in the mail for the entire amount.

In recent years, some of the people we’ve trusted the most have taken advantage of us when we least expected it. It’s moments like this that remind us why we continue to lead with integrity, empathy, and reaffirm that doing business with heart always pays off.

Omaha Business Owners | You Are Probably Invisible to AI.

Even if you rank #1 on Google, tools like ChatGPT and Google AI may still skip over your business entirely.

Why?
Because AI doesn’t see your website the way humans do. If your brand isn’t structured right, you won’t be recommended, and customers won’t find you.

💡 At 316 Strategy Group, we’ve built Nebraska’s largest SEO team, and we’re offering a FREE AI Visibility Audit to show you where your brand stands in this new AI-driven world.

✅ Are you being mentioned in AI search results?
✅ Is your site readable by AI models?
✅ Are your reviews, profiles, and content helping or hurting you?

👉 Message us or comment below to request your Free Audit today.

Let’s make sure you show up where it matters next.

Most Omaha businesses are invisible to AI search. Discover why and we help you get found by ChatGPT, Google AI, and beyond.

Everyone is talking about how SEO is dead.
It is not.
Bad SEO is dead.
Lazy SEO is dead.
SEO that ignores LLM search is already six feet under.

And if your SEO strategy still looks like 2019
your website might be the scariest thing on the internet today.

We are living in the era of AI search, entity optimization, structured content, and multi platform trust signals.
Google is changing.
ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity are already rewriting discovery.

If your content is not optimized for humans and machines
if your site architecture does not speak the language of LLMs
if your brand presence is not backed by Expertise, Experience, Authority, and Trust

then yes...
Your SEO is scary.

316 Strategy Group builds SEO that is LLM friendly, human first, and built for the future of search. Nothing spooky about that.

Happy Halloween.
Let the ghosts stay in haunted houses, not your SERPs.

Sometimes the best part of a shoot is the laughter between the shots.

Tamara stopped by our office for a quick photo session, and we couldn’t help but have a little fun while capturing her confidence and energy. That’s what happens when creativity meets comfort: great work and genuine smiles.

Almost 10 Years Later.

In 2016, a 14-year-old named Isaac Sherril walked into our office and completely blew our minds. He didn’t come asking for free advice; he offered to pay for it. Even back then, he understood the value of time, mentorship, and learning. Something many still fail to understand today.

We posted in December of 2016 that this young man was going places. We weren’t wrong.

Fast forward almost a decade, and Isaac just stopped by to reconnect. He’s now launched his own AI company and came back to “pay down the debt of ignorance,” as he put it.

Young men like Isaac give us hope for the future.

A bold new look for Omaha Food Magazine.

Over the last six months, our team at 316 Strategy Group worked alongside Omaha Food Magazine to help shape the next chapter of their brand. We studied magazine design, color psychology, and the ever-evolving foodie community. We met regularly with their team and even spent a half day off-site to better understand where they’re headed over the next 3–5 years and how a rebrand could help tell that story.

The result? A refreshed identity that reflects who they’ve become after 15 years of covering Omaha’s food scene.

We’ll share a full article soon that dives into the creative process behind the rebrand. If you’re a business owner, it’s one worth reading because sometimes, all a brand needs is the right jump start.

After 15 years of telling Omaha’s food stories, Omaha Food Magazine unveils a bold new rebrand designed by 316 Strategy Group.
