How AI Is Changing the Way People Find Local Businesses (And What to Do About It)

The Way People Search Is Changing—Fast




If your business relies on local customers, your online visibility has always mattered. But in 2025, the way people discover local businesses is undergoing a massive shift—thanks to AI-powered search tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google Gemini, and Claude.


More and more consumers are no longer typing queries into Google. Instead, they’re asking conversational questions like:




*


“What’s the best plumber near me with same-day service?”


*


“Which dental offices in Auburn accept Blue Cross?”


*


“Who has the highest-rated storm shelter installers in Alabama?”






And they’re asking AI tools, not just search engines.


To show up in those answers, your business needs more than just SEO—it needs LLMO: Large Language Model Optimization.
