🚀 Growth Points

5 prioritized actions ranked by impact on AI citation rate. Princeton GEO methodology applied — each Growth Point includes a Schema/quote/statistic suggestion.

📄
Publish /llms.txt with services, pricing, contact CRITICAL
❌ AI engines have no canonical brand summary for your business
✅ Generate /llms.txt with About, Services, Service Area, Hours, License #, Insurance — we auto-deploy this for you in Standard tier
🔌
Publish /.well-known/mcp.json with 8 trade tools CRITICAL
❌ AI agents can't call your booking line directly — no MCP server
✅ Auto-generate mcp.json with get_business_info, list_services, get_pricing, check_availability, book_appointment, request_quote, get_reviews, get_emergency_status
🏷️
Add LocalBusiness JSON-LD with @type: Plumber HIGH
❌ Schema generic or missing — AI doesn't know Acme Plumbing & Sons is a Plumber
✅ Inject JSON-LD with @type: Plumber, AggregateRating, areaServed, openingHours, identifier (license #) — see Yext 2026: FAQPage schema = 4.7x citation multiplier
🔠
Mention "Acme Plumbing & Sons" 3+ times above the fold HIGH
❌ Brand entity mentioned too rarely in first viewport — AI fails to anchor
✅ Include Acme Plumbing & Sons in: page title, H1, hero subtitle, About snippet, FAQ first answer
🤖
Unblock 14 AI crawlers in /robots.txt MEDIUM
❌ GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot disallowed — every blocked bot = lost citation surface
✅ Add explicit User-agent allow for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, Bytespider

📅 Your 8-Week Roadmap

From audit (today) to first "I found you on ChatGPT" customer call. Standard tier delivers stages 1–3; Pro adds stage 4 (continuous monitoring + alerts).

🔍
Week 1 — Discovery DAY 1
Today: this audit. We mapped what's broken and what to fix first.
Discovery questionnaire (25 trade-specific questions) — improves audit accuracy from 65% → 90% by giving us your ground truth (license #, services, pricing, photo archive, VIP customers).
🛠️
Weeks 2–3 — Deploy fixes CRITICAL
Today: AI engines can't parse your services. /llms.txt missing. mcp.json missing. Schema generic.
We auto-generate Schema.org (Plumber subtype) + /llms.txt + /.well-known/mcp.json + FAQPage schema (Yext 2026: 4.7× citation multiplier). One-click WordPress plugin install OR ZIP bundle for manual deploy.
📡
Weeks 4–6 — First crawl HIGH
After deploy, AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot) need 2-7 days to re-index your fixed content.
Telegram alert when ChatGPT-bot first reads your services page. Then your name starts appearing in AI answers for «emergency plumber in [your metro]».
📊
Weeks 7–8 — Measure lift MEDIUM
By Day 30, you start seeing the first «I found you on ChatGPT» customers.
Weekly NVS rescan + Citation Coverage delta. By Day 60-90, average trade business hits 5-9 extra AI-source calls/mo (avg call value $387 → +$1,935 to +$3,483/mo extra revenue).
