Why People Aren't Finding Your Franchise (And How to Fix It This Week)

Over 80% of search users are already relying on AI-generated summaries. If your franchise isn't showing up in them, you're invisible.  In this episode, Stacey breaks down why the old playbook of paid Google ads and keyword-stuffed websites can no longer cut it, and what franchisors need to do right now to get found in this new era of generative engine optimisation (GEO). You'll learn why YouTube has become non-negotiable for franchise marketing, how citation across trusted platforms directly impacts both your organic and paid results, and the one simple thing you can do today to find out exactly what the AI engines already know (and don't know) about your brand. This one's a kick up the bum if you needed it...  If you are stuck on what kind of content to create - download Stacey's messaging framework here: https://staceycann.com/framework  Keywords: Generative engine optimisation, GEO franchise, AI search franchise, Franchise marketing, Franchise visibility, disruptive franchise podcast ------- A Thank You To Our Sponsors: Our headline sponsor, Impact Franchising - The Agency, builds a predictable pipeline - done for you!
