How to Get Cited by ChatGPT, Gemini & Claude in 90 Days

Is your remodeling company being recommended by ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude — or would you even know if it was? In this episode of the Contractor Growth Network podcast, Logan sits down with Patrick Sculley, CGN's in-house SEO lead, to walk through a 90-day plan for getting cited in AI search. They start with the basics — what "cited" actually means, why personalization is making AI results different for every searcher, and why the old SEO formula of "more reviews + more backlinks = trust" doesn't hold the same weight anymore. Then they break the 90 days into three sprints. Days 1–30: run a visibility audit, fix your service pages and About page, and figure out what the LLMs already know about you. Days 31–60: build first-party content — call recordings, FAQs, cost articles, project pages, and YouTube videos that AI can pull from. Days 61–90: spread your influence beyond your own website with reviews on Houzz and Angie, Reddit answers, association memberships, and press mentions. The conversation also gets into CGN's "client brain" — the system we've been building so that every blog, page, and ad we write for a client is sourced from their actual transcripts, calls, and brand voice instead of generic keyword targeting. If you've ever opened ChatGPT, asked "who's a good remodeler in my area," and not seen your name come up — this episode lays out the exact 90-day path to fix that. 🎯 Timestamps 00:00 — Is your remodeling company being recommended by ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude? 02:50 — What "cited" actually means in AI search 07:12 — Why writing about backsplashes still matters for SEO 11:13 — The Tinder analogy: how AI search re-ranks results for each user 16:09 — How realistic is 90 days, and what foundation do you need first? 17:28 — The trust problem: why you can't shortcut your way in 19:00 — The most-crawled page on your site (it's not what you think) 20:10 — Can you get cited with a bad website?
