Four things AI engines check when a homeowner asks for flooring service. You're failing on the ones that matter most.
In 30 AI homeowner queries, your business was cited 0 times. Industry top performers: 15-25.
When AI does mention you, is the phone number, address, and hours correct? Or is it sending homeowners to a wrong number?
How dominant your competitors are in the AI answer slot. The lower this is, the more concentrated the market.
AI engines need JSON-LD schema, GBP completeness, and consistent NAP across 30+ data sources to trust you. Most contractors have none of this.
Different engines reward different signals. Spending time on the wrong one is how most operators waste a quarter.
Four mechanisms running every week. Proprietary method. Same protocol used to lift scores 30-50 points in 45-60 days.
Based on 240 AI homeowner searches/mo for flooring in Leominster, average ticket $800, 2.5% close rate. Your real audit pulls actual local search volume.
If Mentioned gets you ONE extra service call per month from AI search, here's the return.
Conservative math uses 4 jobs/mo — the floor most flooring operators hit by month 3. Many do double that.
31% of homeowners now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Gemini for local service recommendations. That number is projected to hit 60%+ by 2027 (Pew, McKinsey). Google's market share for local "best [trade] near me" queries has dropped 14 points in 18 months.
Local businesses spent the last 20 years optimizing for Google. Now they need to optimize for AI — and almost none of them have. Mentioned is the layer between local service operators and the AI engines that homeowners use to find them. Same role Yext played for Google search.
Every audit feeds public rankings. Operators climb. Homeowners discover. The category gets transparent.
When Mentioned subscribers move up, the public leaderboard reflects it. SEO + LLM citation flywheel.
Every penny back. No clawback. No "but you have to keep paying." If the mechanism doesn't work for you, we eat the cost. That's how confident we are.
I'll walk you through your real Mentioned Score, show you the gap to top quartile, and answer the "yeah but does this work for [my trade]" question on the call. No sales pitch. 15 minutes.
Enter your business. Mentioned runs the full audit in 90 seconds and emails you the report. No card, no commitment.
