Digital strategy · AI visibility

A career in search. A current focus on how AI finds brands.

I’m Chris Breikss, a digital strategist and founding partner at Major Tom. Through Rivetline, I advise businesses on the next layer of search: how they are understood, cited, and recommended by AI systems.

A long view

I started in search engine optimization in 1999. Since then, the mechanics have changed many times, but the job has remained familiar: help a good business be found, make the story clear, and connect the attention to an outcome that matters.

Current work

Three connected chapters.

01

Major Tom

I founded 6S Marketing in 2000. In 2018, 6S merged with Drive Digital to form Major Tom. I remain a founding partner of the B2B digital agency.

The current question

Can a search system explain your business accurately when a buyer asks?

That is the starting point for AI visibility. We look at the facts a system can verify, the evidence behind the claims, the questions buyers ask, and the next step when interest appears.

Entity clarity

Make the business, its people, services, and relationships easy to identify.

Useful evidence

Publish practical answers and build the credible context that supports them.

Lead ownership

Make sure a real person or system owns the next step before attention evaporates.

Selected coverage

A public record that predates the current wave.
