In one paragraph
Getting found in Calgary now means two places. Google's map pack, which shows about 36 of every 100 local businesses for a search, and AI answers like ChatGPT, which recommend about 1 in 100. Both read the same three things: your Google Business Profile, your reviews, and the service pages on your website. We fix those three in 30 days at a fixed price of $1,950, and you count the result in calls, not in reports.
The problem, in three places
Your listing
Your Google Business Profile is half filled, your hours are wrong on Apple Maps, and Yelp has your old address. Google and ChatGPT both read these and trust the business that is consistent everywhere.
Your reviews
You have good work and a 4.9, but the last review is from March and nobody replied to the one before it. Count, recency and replies are what the map pack ranks on and what AI quotes.
Your website
The site says 'quality service' and never names the trade, the neighbourhood or the question a customer asks. AI answers quote pages that answer questions in plain words.
How it works
- The free checkSend the form. In two working days you get one page: what Google, Maps and ChatGPT show for your trade in Calgary, where you are missing, and the five fixes that matter most. No call needed to get it.
- The fixThirty days. Listing rebuilt, every directory made consistent, a review system that runs itself, service pages and FAQs written, a tracking number on the listing.
- The countA before-and-after page: where you show up now, how many calls came through the tracked number, what to do next. Then you decide about month to month.
What the fix includes
- Google Business Profile rebuilt: categories, services, areas, hours, photos, posts, the lot.
- Your name, address and phone made identical on Google, Apple Maps, Bing, Yelp, Foursquare and HomeStars.
- A review request system: a text and a card with a code your crew hands over at the end of a job, and replies to every review in your voice.
- Service pages and FAQs written for your trade and your areas, in the words customers use, so Google and AI answers have something to quote.
- A call tracking number on the listing, so the count is real.
- The before-and-after report, one page, with the calls.

Ask about Stay FoundStay Found is your listing, reviews and pages, kept current. The $450 social media service is posting. They are different jobs; most owners start with the fix alone. When you want someone to own the whole plan and the vendors, that is Octopus & Son's fractional CMO work, from $3,500 a month.
Questions people ask first
I have been burned by a marketing guy before. Why is this different?
Three things. The price is fixed before we start, so there is no clock running. The work is listed on this page, so you can check it off. And the result is counted in calls through a tracking number, not in a report about impressions. If the free check finds nothing worth fixing, we tell you that and stop.
All my work comes from referrals. Do I need this?
If referrals fill the calendar, no. Most owners we meet are getting referred and then losing the job when the person looks them up and finds a thin listing or no reviews. The free check tells you which one you are.
Is AI search real for a Calgary plumber or renovator?
Real and early. In BrightLocal's 2026 survey, 45% of consumers had used an AI tool to find a local business in the past year, up from 6%. SOCi measured that ChatGPT recommends about 1 in 100 local businesses while Google's map pack shows about 36 in 100. The businesses that get recommended are the ones with consistent listings, recent reviews and pages that answer questions. That is the fix.
I cannot afford $1,950 right now.
Start with the free check; it costs nothing and tells you what you would get for the money. If the fix is right for you but the timing is not, we can do it in two halves a month apart.
I have no time for meetings.
You need one call of thirty minutes and ten minutes to approve the pages. Everything else happens on our side and you get it in writing.
My web guy handles this.
Good, then he will be glad of the list. Most web people build the site and never touch the listing, the directories or the reviews, which is where the map pack and AI answers are decided. The free check shows what is being handled and what is not.
How will I know it worked?
By the calls. The tracking number on your listing counts them from day one, and the before-and-after report shows where you appear for your trade and areas, then and now. You judge it on the calls.
