Your next client isn't scrolling ten blue links. They're asking AI.

68% of US Google searches ended without a click in early 2026, and AI assistants hand buyers a shortlist of two or three names. If you're not cited, you're not considered - no matter how good your work is. For a business where one client is worth $3,000–$50,000, that's not a marketing problem. It's a revenue problem.
