Homeowners in Miami-Dade and Broward are researching remodelers through ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI answers before they ever pick up the phone. I find out whether those tools recommend you — and then I go fix the reasons they don't.
No charge, no obligation. You keep the report either way.
Search used to hand people ten links and let them decide. AI tools hand them a shortlist of three businesses and a reason to call each one. If you're not on that list, you're not in the conversation — and you'll never see the lead you didn't get.
This isn't a prediction. It's measurable, and independent research has been tracking it:
The practical version: fewer people find you, but the ones who do are far more likely to book. That makes AI visibility a lead-quality problem, which is exactly the problem a remodeler closing two to four percent of their leads actually has.
Everything I work on falls into one of four buckets. There's no secret method — it's the same four levers, worked steadily, month after month.
Confirm AI crawlers are actually permitted and that your content exists in the page source. A surprising number of sites quietly block the exact tools their customers are using.
Google Business Profile rebuilt properly — categories, services, attributes, photos. Consistent name, address and phone everywhere. Structured data that states plainly what you do and where.
Reviews flowing steadily, and your name appearing on sources beyond your own site — local press, trade directories, industry roundups, podcasts, video. This is the slowest lever and the one that matters most.
Pages built around what your customers actually ask: what a kitchen costs here, how condo association approval works, what Miami-Dade permitting involves. Written to be quoted, in English and Spanish.
I take 36 questions South Florida homeowners genuinely ask before hiring a remodeler — pricing, permits, association approval, how to vet a contractor — and run them across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google's AI answers and Claude, in both English and Spanish. I record which companies get named, in what order, and which sources the answers pull from.
A written breakdown of where you appear, where your competitors appear instead, and the specific reasons behind the gap. Screenshots of the actual answers, unedited. It's yours to keep whether or not we work together — you can hand it to whoever builds your website.
I walk you through what I found. If it's useful and you want me to fix it, I'll tell you what that costs and what it involves. If you'd rather take the report and run, that's a completely fine outcome.
Profile management, review generation, two pages a month, two to four outreach efforts for third-party mentions, and a one-page report on the same date every month showing how many of those 36 questions now name you, compared to the day we started.
Published, because you shouldn't have to sit through a sales call to find out what something costs.

My name is Dane Christiansen. I run First Bid myself, out of South Florida. When you email, I answer. When something goes wrong, it's my problem.
Being straight with you: this is a new business. I don't have a decade of client logos to show you, and I'm not going to borrow someone else's. What I have is a method I can walk you through in detail, work you can inspect before you pay for any of it, and a free audit that proves whether I understand your market.
That's also why the pricing sits below what an established agency charges. I'm building a track record, and I'd rather do that by being useful to a small number of remodelers than by overcharging and overpromising.
I chose kitchen and bath specifically. South Florida remodeling isn't generic work — condo alteration agreements, Miami-Dade permitting, HVHZ requirements and association rules shape every job here, and those are exactly the questions homeowners are asking AI before they call anyone. A marketer who doesn't know that vocabulary can't write content that gets cited.
I won't pretend to know construction better than you do. That's your trade. Mine is making sure the people looking for it can find you.
Not yet at scale — I'm early, and I'd rather say so than dress it up. That's precisely why the audit is free and why I price below the market: I'm buying case studies, and the only way to earn one is to do real work for someone.
What I can show you is the work itself. The audit is a finished piece of analysis about your business, done before you've paid me anything. Judge me on that.
Profile and technical fixes can surface in AI answers within a few weeks. The mention-building side — the part that actually moves you into recommendations — realistically takes 90 days before it means much, and it compounds after that.
You'll see the tracking every month either way, including the months where nothing moves. I'd rather show you a flat month and explain it than hide it behind impressions and reach.
No. Nobody can, and I'd be cautious about anyone who says otherwise. These systems change their behavior without notice and don't publish their ranking logic.
What I can commit to is the work: the fixes get made, the content gets published, the outreach gets sent, and you see measured results against a documented starting point every single month.
It shares a foundation with local SEO — your profile, your reviews, your site's technical health all matter to both. The differences are real though: AI answers lean heavily on third-party mentions rather than links, they read content in passages rather than pages, and they're driven by full questions rather than keywords.
In practice that shifts the work toward getting you talked about elsewhere and toward writing pages that answer one question completely. You get the local SEO benefit as a byproduct.
Yes, and I'd argue it's one of the more valuable things I do here. AI engines frequently return a completely different set of companies for Spanish-language questions than for the English equivalents, and very few remodelers in this market are competing in both.
The audit covers both languages as standard.
Manager-level access to your Google Business Profile, Search Console, Analytics and website — permissions, not passwords, and you can revoke them at any moment. Photographs of your work. Answers to a short intake form about your services and pricing. And your team continuing to ask happy customers for reviews, because I can build the system but I can't ask on your behalf.
Six months to start, because the work genuinely doesn't show results faster than that and a shorter term would be selling you something I can't deliver. After that it runs month to month with 30 days' notice.
If we part ways, I hand back every account, export your reports and document what was done. You own all of it.
Not at the same time. I won't take on a direct competitor in your service area while we're working together.
Send me your company name and website. I'll run the full 36-question audit across all four AI engines, in English and Spanish, and send you the report within a week — whether or not you ever want to talk about hiring me.
