    Same Prompt, Different HVAC Picks: What Our AI Search Test Revealed

    Why does the same AI search prompt produce different HVAC recommendations? In episode 2 of A Chat with Chat, Aaron from Sequoia GEO and his ChatGPT AI co-host examine a live local-search test using Gemini and discuss what the results mean for home service businesses. We compare Gemini Flash and Pro, look at which companies recur and which sources change, and discuss the difference between being mentioned and being cited. We also explore why one AI answer is not a reliable AI ranking report and how repeated tests and real customer prompts can make your research more useful. For HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical, landscaping, and other local service operators who want to understand AI search and generative engine optimization (GEO). This is an exploratory demonstration, not proof of a ranking formula or a guarantee of AI recommendations. ChatGPT participates as an AI co-host with a synthetic voice.

    Introducing A Chat with Chat: Your Home Service Business and AI Search (GEO)

    Aaron Husak of Sequoia GEO and ChatGPT kick off A Chat with Chat with a practical conversation about AI search and generative engine optimization (GEO) for local home-service businesses. What does GEO add to traditional SEO? How can an HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical, landscaping, pest control, or garage door company become easier to find and recommend? And how should owners measure visibility without mistaking mentions for leads or booked jobs? In this introductory episode: • How AI recommendations and traditional search overlap • Tracking mentions, citations, referral traffic, leads, and jobs booked • What to investigate when competitors appear in AI answers • Why service pages, business information, reviews, and credible proof matter • What BrightLocal’s consumer research says about local business discovery Research note: BrightLocal’s 2026 Local Consumer Review Survey surveyed 1,002 US adults. Its 45% figure concerns using AI for local business recommendations broadly, not specifically hiring contractors. The 88% figure concerns AI users checking reviews cited by AI for legitimacy or source, not all consumers verifying every AI answer. These findings do not establish booking rates or prove zero-click behavior.
