The Authority Audit · Free · Delivered in 5 business days

What do people find when they search your name?

Before a client calls, they search. Increasingly, they ask an AI assistant. The Authority Audit shows you exactly what they see on Google and what ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity say about you, then maps the gap between how good you are and how trusted you look.

A directory profile, last updated years ago

Result 3

A competitor, established and recognized

“Who is the most trusted advisor in Austin?”

The AI names three people. You are not one of them.

Illustrative. Your audit shows your real results.

Why it matters

The first search decides who gets the call.

Most established professionals have a perception problem, not a skill problem. A prospect hears your name from a friend, searches it, and what comes back settles the decision before you ever speak. For large firms, that first impression is managed. For everyone else, it is often a thin page of listings and profiles that quietly undermines every referral.

AI assistants have made this sharper. When someone asks for the most trusted provider in your market, the answer names two or three people. The audit shows you whether you are one of them, and if not, who is, and why.

What's inside

Three reviews, one written summary

Every audit covers the same three areas, documented with screenshots so you can see exactly what we saw.

01

Your first page on Google

What appears when someone searches your name, and your name plus your specialty or city. We record every result on page one and rate whether it builds trust, says nothing, or works against you.

02

What AI assistants say about you

We ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI the questions your prospects ask: who is the most trusted provider in your market, and what is known about you by name. You see the actual answers, word for word.

03

Who holds your position today

We identify the competitors currently named in those results and answers, what they have that you do not, and how far the gap is. This is usually the part people did not expect to see.

How it works

From request to written audit in five business days

1

Request the audit

Book a 20-minute slot below, or send us your name, profession and market by email. That is all we need to begin.

2

We run it

Within five business days we complete the search and AI assistant review, document the results and write your summary.

3

Walk through it together

On the call we show you what we found, what it likely costs you, and what closing the gap would involve. No slides, no pressure.

4

Keep it

The written audit is yours whether or not we work together. Most people forward it to a partner or spouse the same day.

Our policy

One professional per profession, per market.

The full authority program builds a position that only one person in a market can hold. So we only build it for one. If your market is already taken, we will tell you during the audit, and the audit is still yours.

Questions

Before you request

Is the audit really free?

Yes. There is no fee and no obligation. We offer it because it is the most honest way to show what we do: if the audit finds real gaps, the value of closing them is obvious. If it does not, we will tell you that too.

What do you need from me?

Your name as clients know it, your profession, and the market you serve. If you have a website or profile you want included, send the link. We do the rest.

What happens after the audit?

If the audit shows gaps we can close, we will explain the full authority program, what it includes, the timeline and the investment, and you decide. If you are not a fit, or your market is already taken, we will say so plainly.

What does one professional per market mean?

We accept one professional per profession per market for the full program. Building the same authority position for two competitors in the same city would undermine both, so we do not do it. Availability is confirmed during the audit walkthrough.

Will this affect my existing website or profiles?

No. The audit is a review only. Nothing is changed, published or submitted anywhere on your behalf during the audit.
