Built on Performance.
Focused on What's Next.
Conversion Insights is a strategic AI advisory and execution firm based in Omaha, Nebraska. We help companies turn the AI disruption into a competitive advantage — across how they get found, how they operate, and how they make decisions.
The rules that governed business for a quarter century are being rewritten in real time. AI is reshaping how customers discover and choose you, how the work actually gets done, and how fast you can act on what's happening. We build that capability into three connected pillars — AI Visibility + Revenue, AI Operations, and AI Intelligence.
25+ Years Building the Systems
That Drive Performance
Jeremy Vlcan has spent over 25 years at the intersection of data, technology, and marketing — leading and scaling operations for companies ranging from venture-backed startups to Fortune 500 portfolio companies.
Throughout his career, he built the data models, attribution systems, and performance frameworks that turned raw signals into decisions. That same systems-thinking is now applied to AI — not as a single tactic, but as connected infrastructure across the whole business.
Today that means helping companies put AI to work end to end: getting recommended by the engines buyers now ask first, automating the work that doesn't need a person, and replacing month-end reports with real-time intelligence. The question is no longer "how do we rank?" but "how do we turn AI into an advantage?"

From Search Engines to Answer Engines.
From the SERP to Agentic Commerce.
Keyword models, attribution frameworks, performance measurement — were designed for a world where humans typed queries and clicked links. That world is being replaced by one where AI agents discover, evaluate, and transact on behalf of users. Conversion Insights was founded to help businesses make that transition with the same rigor and accountability that defined the search era.
How We Work
Data-Driven
Every recommendation starts with evidence. We measure what matters, build models that reflect reality, and let the data guide the strategy — never the other way around. Opinions are cheap; data is the currency of trust.
Transparent
No black boxes. No jargon for the sake of complexity. We believe clients deserve to understand exactly what we're doing, why we're doing it, and what the expected impact will be. Clarity builds partnerships that last.
Results-Focused
Strategy without execution is academic. We are accountable to outcomes — not deliverables, not hours logged. The only metric that matters is whether the business moved forward.
Deep Performance Marketing Experience Meets AI-First Strategy Thinking
Operator, Not Observer
We've managed hundreds of millions in ad spend across paid search, shopping, display, and programmatic. Our AI strategies are grounded in the operational reality of how marketing budgets actually work.
Systems-Thinking at the Core
We don't optimize tactics in isolation. We build interconnected frameworks — structured data, entity authority, content architecture, and technical infrastructure — that compound over time.
Startup Speed, Enterprise Rigor
Having scaled operations from scrappy startups to Fortune 500 enterprise, we adapt our approach to your velocity and governance requirements — without ever sacrificing analytical depth.
Built for Accountability
We come from a world where every dollar was tracked, every campaign measured, and every strategy justified by ROI. That accountability mindset is embedded in everything we do in the AI era.
