Is Google dead? Not yet, but AI has massively changed the way people search already.
Millions of people every day are turning to ChatGPT and other AI tools instead of typing their questions into a search bar. Studies show that nearly half of Gen Z and Millennials now use AI tools to get answers before they ever open Google. Even more telling, about sixty percent of people who start using ChatGPT for information and recommendations report that they use Google less often within the first month. This is not a future trend. It is happening right now and it is accelerating fast. That means the future of service is in the search of AI.
SHOW UP ON CHATGPT. The power of AI SEARCH.
That is the opportunity every pressure washing, soft washing, window cleaning, and paver sealing company, supplier, and manufacturer needs to understand. Customers, contractors, and dealers are already asking AI who to hire, where to buy, and which brands to trust. The businesses that learn the secret of visibility will be the ones who win.
The truth is you cannot trick the system. ChatGPT does not play favorites. It looks for what is visible, credible, and trusted across the internet. If you want your company, your supply brand, or your manufacturing business to appear when someone asks for a service or product you provide, you need to take control of the signals you are putting out online.
Build Search Visibility with SEO
ChatGPT relies on information it can pull from the open web. If your company or brand is not showing up on Google, it will not magically appear on AI search. Write blog posts that answer customer and dealer questions. Create service and product pages that include industry-specific keywords such as pressure washing equipment, Equipment for window cleaning, or paver sealing supplies. Publish educational content that uses the exact words your audience types when they are looking for help. When you dominate those terms in search, ChatGPT will see you.
Claim and Optimize Your Local and Industry Listings
For service companies, Google Business Profile is essential. For suppliers and manufacturers, industry directories and distributor networks matter too. Make sure your business details are consistent everywhere. Add photos, product specs, and clear descriptions. Collect reviews from both end users and dealers. Post updates on a regular basis. ChatGPT uses these trusted signals and a strong profile increases the chances you are the company or brand it recognizes when someone asks for the best supplier, manufacturer, or service provider.
Publish Fresh Content Consistently
Fresh content matters for every level of the industry. A blog written three years ago carries less weight than something published last week. Keep your business active with new blogs, how-to videos, educational webinars, podcasts, and social posts. Service providers can show before-and-afters. Suppliers can showcase products in use. Manufacturers can highlight innovation and reliability. The more active you are, the stronger your presence becomes and the more likely ChatGPT will recommend you.
Build Authority Through Mentions and Links
Authority is earned whether you are a local washer, a supplier, or a manufacturer. When other sites mention you or link back to your content, it signals credibility. Partner with industry associations. Get listed in directories. Collaborate with contractors, distributors, and influencers. Every mention builds your reputation online and helps both Google and ChatGPT connect your company or brand name to the industry.
Own Your Niche and Stay Consistent
ChatGPT learns patterns. If your content consistently connects your company with phrases like window cleaning supplier, paver sealing manufacturer, or pressure washing marketing expert, it starts to understand that you are the relevant authority. Over time it will surface you when people ask about that niche.
Keep Your Content Human
Do not fall into the trap of just stuffing keywords into content. Share your story. Show your work. Highlight your customer and dealer wins. Educate people on why your service or product matters. ChatGPT is designed to serve people and when your content speaks to real people first, it performs better.
How Can I Get My Company To Show Up On AI Search (ChatGPT) Starting Today?
You can start today and put your company on the path to showing up on ChatGPT and AI search. These are moves you can literally act on right now, not six months from now.
1. Lock in your Google Business Profile
If you are local, this is your first domino. Make sure your Google Business Profile is claimed, your info (name, address, phone) is consistent, you have fresh photos uploaded, and at least 5 recent reviews. This is the baseline signal that tells AI you are a real, trusted business.
2. Publish one fresh piece of content today
Write a blog, record a short video, or even post a social update that directly answers a real customer question. For example: “What is the difference between pressure washing and soft washing” or “How often should I seal pavers.” AI pulls from content that answers questions in plain language. Get something live today.
3. Update your website homepage
Add a clear H1 headline that says exactly what you do and where. Example: “Professional Pressure Washing and Soft Washing in Dallas, TX.” AI models read that structure the same way Google does. If your homepage doesn’t say what you do and where, you’re invisible.
4. Start building authority
Reach out to one local partner today—a supplier, contractor, or association—and ask if you can swap links, provide a testimonial, or share a case study. That one backlink strengthens your authority online.
5. Be consistent starting now
AI favors companies that don’t disappear. Create a simple weekly rhythm you can stick to: one blog, one video, one customer story, one update. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be consistent.
Bringing It All Together
The question is not if customers will use AI to find companies, products, and services. The question is whether they will find yours. Google is not dead but it is no longer the only game in town. AI search is already pulling attention and the businesses that invest in SEO, authority, and consistent visibility today will be the ones ChatGPT recommends tomorrow.
