Get Your Business Recommended by ChatGPT & Google AI

AI SEO, done-for-you AI marketing, and 1-on-1 AI training for Vancouver storefronts.

Your customers are asking AI where to go. Is it saying your name?

It’s 6:40 on a Thursday night. Someone in Kitsilano picks up their phone and asks, “Where can I get my oil changed tonight that’s honest and not a rip-off?”

They don’t get ten blue links. They get one answer. Maybe two.

If that answer isn’t you, you never even knew you lost the customer.

Includes a free AI Visibility Check: we ask ChatGPT and Google’s AI about your business and show you exactly what they say about you, and about the shop down the street.

Why isn’t my business showing up on ChatGPT?

It’s one of the most-searched questions owners ask right now. Usually the answer is one of three things:

Your details don’t match across the web. Your name, address and hours differ from one site to the next.
Your reviews are thin or old.
Your website doesn’t clearly answer what customers ask.

AI recommends businesses it can confirm. If it can’t confirm you, it names someone else.

This isn’t coming. It’s here.

45% of consumers now use AI tools like ChatGPT to find local businesses, up from 6% a year earlier. That makes AI the third most popular source of local recommendations, behind only Google and Facebook. (BrightLocal, Local Consumer Review Survey 2026)

Here’s the part most owners miss: AI doesn’t replace the basics. It reads them. It looks at your Google profile, your reviews, your website and what the rest of the internet says about you. Then it decides whether you’re worth recommending.

A strong foundation gets you named. A messy one makes you invisible, and the AI won’t tell you why.

Three ways we help

1. AI SEO: get recommended by ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews & Gemini

Whether ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI answers recommend you comes down to signals you control:

your business details matching everywhere they appear;
a steady flow of fresh reviews;
a website that answers the questions your customers actually ask.

We find the gaps that are keeping you out of the answer and fix them. And because it’s the same foundation, the work that gets you into AI answers also helps you rank in the regular Google map. See Local SEO Vancouver.

2. Done-for-you AI marketing: review replies, Google posts & emails (human-checked)

We use AI to get more done for every dollar you spend with us: review replies, Google posts, promo emails and ad tests. Every piece is checked by a human, in your voice.

No robot-sounding posts. No “Unlock your potential!” captions your regulars can smell a mile away. You get more consistent marketing without a bigger bill.

3. 1-on-1 AI training for small business owners (by phone or video call)

A private session with just you, by phone or screen-share video call, at a time that works around your shop. No classroom, no group webinar where your questions get skipped.

We work on your business, not a generic slideshow:

replying to reviews in 2 minutes instead of 20;
writing this month’s promo;
answering customer emails;
planning your week of posts.

You leave using it, not just knowing about it. No tech background needed. If you can send a text, you can do this.

Before and after

Before	After
Someone asks AI for “the best [your service] near me.” Your competitor gets named.	Your business shows up in the answer, with reasons to choose you.
Reviews sit unanswered for weeks because you’re on the floor all day.	Every review gets a thoughtful reply the same day.
Marketing happens when you find a spare hour (you never do).	Posts, emails and promos go out on schedule, sounding like you.
You keep hearing “you should use AI” and feel further behind.	You use it every week, on real work for your shop.

Why Zolo

We’ve been getting storefronts more customers since 2012, long before AI was a buzzword. We use these tools every day on real client accounts, including a Mobil 1 Lube Express operator we’ve worked with for more than 10 years. We know where AI saves you hours and where it’ll embarrass you if nobody checks its work.

And we take one client per trade, per service area. We won’t help the shop down the street get recommended over you.

Questions owners ask

Is AI going to replace Google?

Not overnight. Most people who get an AI recommendation still check Google before they visit. That’s exactly why the foundation matters: the same signals win both. We work on both at once.

Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend me?

No, and be wary of anyone who says they can. Nobody controls what AI says. What we control are the signals it reads, and we make sure yours are the strongest in your area.

Will the AI-written posts sound fake?

Not if a human who knows your business checks every one. That’s the part most people skip, and it’s the part we never skip.

I’m not a tech person. Is the training for me?

It’s built for you. We start with the tasks you already do every week and show you how to do them faster. No jargon.

What’s the difference between AI SEO, GEO and AEO?

They’re three names for the same job: making sure AI tools can find, trust and recommend your business. GEO stands for “generative engine optimization” and AEO for “answer engine optimization”. Marketers argue about the labels. You just want your name in the answer.

How does the AI training work?

It’s a 1-on-1 session with you, by phone or video call with screen-share. Bring the tasks that eat your week. We’ll work through them together on your own business, so you leave with things already done, not just notes.

Can my manager sit in?

Yes. It’s your session. If your front-desk lead or manager handles the reviews and posts, bring them along.

How much does it cost?

It depends on your business and what you need. A training session and ongoing done-for-you marketing are very different things. You’ll get a straight number on a 15-minute call, specific to your shop.

Find out what AI says about you

Fifteen minutes. We’ll ask ChatGPT and Google’s AI the questions your customers are asking, show you who gets named, and tell you the three things holding you back. No deck, no pitch.
