AI-powered experiences like Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and Ask Maps are changing how customers discover local businesses. People are asking more detailed, conversational questions, and AI-powered systems can now influence which businesses get surfaced.

Traditional rankings are only part of the visibility equation. Complete, accurate business information — including your Google Business Profile, reviews, photos, and local content — can help customers and AI systems better understand your brand.

Join SOCi and Google for an exclusive webinar, Winning the Next Era of Local Visibility, on June 3.

You will learn:

  • How AI is transforming local search.
  • Which signals may influence AI recommendations.
  • How to improve visibility across Search, Maps, and Gemini.
  • What Ask Maps means for your brand.

AI is already shaping how customers find businesses. Make sure yours is one of them.
