About Ashley Smith
Ashley Smith is an AI visibility strategist and founder of Show Your Proof. She helps professionals identify and close their Proof Gap, the disconnect between their real-world expertise and the evidence available online for AI tools to find, understand, and trust. She came to it after 18 years as a Realtor, including a term as the youngest president and board chair in the 100-year history of the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver. She tests the idea on herself in public: one episode of her podcast was recorded on her phone's voice memo app in her Dodge Caravan. She also hosts Canada Now, a weekly podcast of conversations with Canadian founders and builders, from her base in Richmond.
