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.

“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.
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.
Every audit covers the same three areas, documented with screenshots so you can see exactly what we saw.
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.
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.
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.
The audit is built for people who win business on trust, where one new client is worth many times the cost of looking established.
Book a 20-minute slot below, or send us your name, profession and market by email. That is all we need to begin.
Within five business days we complete the search and AI assistant review, document the results and write your summary.
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.
The written audit is yours whether or not we work together. Most people forward it to a partner or spouse the same day.
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.
Check Availability in Your MarketYes. 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.
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.
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.
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.
No. The audit is a review only. Nothing is changed, published or submitted anywhere on your behalf during the audit.
