Two service pros, same service, same price, same city… so why does AI recommend them and not you?

Here’s the truth. AI doesn’t guess. It chooses the clearer, safer, more repeated name. This is where answer engine optimization (AEO) meets your daily reality as a service pro. In 2025, SEO alone won’t save you. Generative engine optimization, AI discovery, and digital networking are now the trails that decide who gets chosen.

In this episode of the Branding Momentum podcast, you’ll learn how AI makes the tie-break between you and a competitor:

• How to make your niche and specialty crystal clear so both AI search and humans know exactly what you do • Why consistency across LinkedIn, your website, podcasts, and transcripts teaches AI to connect the dots• Where to show up through digital networking—guest podcasts, collaborations, newsletters, articles, and communities—so your name travels further • Why one collaboration multiplies your visibility across feeds, YouTube clips, blogs, and transcripts faster than twenty solo posts in your own bubble

If you’ve been visible but not chosen, this is the missing piece.

I’m Veronica Di Polo, a marketing strategist based in Moraira, Spain, helping service-based business owners get leads with words that sell.
