Local AI Visibility Program
Helping Local Businesses Get Found on Google and in AI Search
A complimentary program for BIAs, business associations and their members.
Help your members get found, trusted and chosen across Google Search, Google Maps, AI-powered search and the web.
The Problem: Local Search Has Changed
Google has introduced AI-powered search and Ask Maps. Customers are now asking Google, ChatGPT and other AI platforms which local businesses they should visit, trust and buy from.
If a business’s information is incomplete, outdated or unclear, search engines and AI platforms will overlook it and recommend a competitor.
Every local business needs to prepare for this change.
