 Quotable

## Quotes

Pull any of these verbatim.

“

People used to type ‘near me’ into Google. Now they ask ChatGPT who’s the best, and the business it names gets the call. That’s the whole game now. Making sure AI knows your business well enough to recommend it.

“

The businesses winning in AI search aren’t the biggest spenders. They’re the ones with clear, consistent, well-evidenced web presences. A small local firm can out-rank a national chain if its entity is clearer than the chain’s.

“

Before you spend another dollar on ads, Google your own business the way a customer would. Then ask ChatGPT the same thing. If you’re not showing up in either, that’s the gap to close first.
