A service by Irving Carrion · Lawrence, MA
AI search check for local businesses in Lawrence, MA
Customers now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI who the best plumber near them is. I check what those answers say about your business, who they name instead and why, and send you a fix list. I'm based in Lawrence, MA, and the check is built for local businesses, not online stores.
What's included.
I've run this check for plumbing companies in Massachusetts. On one plumbing site I built, the fixes took its AI-readiness score from 62 to 93 out of 100 on my own audit tool.
- Real customer questions for your trade and towns, asked in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and Google Maps
- Who gets named instead of you, with screenshots
- Whether your website lets AI crawlers in or blocks them by accident
- Whether your name, address, phone and services match across your site, Google listing and directories
- The structured data that tells search engines what you do and where
- A PDF report: what each tool said, where you lose, and a fix list ranked by effort
Who it's for.
Plumbers, HVAC companies, contractors and other local businesses that get customers from their towns, with or without a website. Without one, I focus on your Google listing and directories.
Honest limits.
- AI answers change daily and no one controls them. I don't sell guaranteed scores or guaranteed recommendations. I show you what you can fix.
- The check doesn't change anything on your site. If you want me to make the fixes, that's quoted separately.
- It's built for local businesses that serve a town or service area, not online stores.
How it works.
Send your business details
Your business name and website, your Google listing, your top three services and the towns you want customers from.
I ask, logged out
I ask the questions logged out, which is closer to what a new customer sees, and check your site, listing and structured data.
You get the report
A PDF with what each tool said, screenshots, and fixes ranked by effort. You decide what to fix and who fixes it.
Common questions.
Is this the same as SEO?
It overlaps. Regular SEO is about Google's list of links. This checks the AI answers and map lists people now read first.
Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend me?
No, and be careful of anyone who does. The fixes make your business easier to find and confirm: matching details, clear service pages, reviews, and crawlers allowed in.
Do I need a website?
It helps, but no. Without one, I focus on your Google listing and directories.
Will you change anything on my site?
Not as part of the check. You get the fix list. I can make the fixes as a separate project.
Why ask the questions logged out?
Logged-in answers lean on your own history. Logged out is closer to what a new customer sees.
What it costs.
The check is quoted in writing after a free review of your site. If you want the fixes made afterward, I quote them as a project or do them as consulting at $75 an hour.
