Most local businesses are invisible on Google Maps and AI search without knowing why. They have the right services, happy customers, and years of experience, but their competitors keep showing up first. The difference almost always comes down to a handful of signals that most business owners have never heard of and a review system that runs consistently whether anyone is thinking about it or not.
In this episode, Yash Singh breaks down exactly how he generates 23 plus leads per week for HVAC and home service companies using Google Business Profile and AI search. He covers how AI platforms like ChatGPT and Claude decide which businesses to recommend, why listicles and citations are the new link building, the exact GBP optimization checklist that moved one client from position 13 to position 9 in 12 hours, and why the frequency of your reviews matters more than the total number you have. Yash also shares the simple business card trick that gets more five star reviews than any automated email system ever will.
Yash Singh is the founder of TradeOps Consulting, where he helps HVAC and home service companies generate a steady flow of quality leads through Google Business Profile and AI search optimization. He has helped more than 150 businesses improve their visibility on Google and AI platforms and focuses exclusively on home services after years of working across multiple industries.
