From Search to Sales: How to Get Found on Google, Maps & AI

Hotel Voco Leicester

FREE TO ATTEND

Search is changing fast.

Customers are no longer relying solely on Google to find businesses. They’re increasingly turning to Google Maps, ChatGPT, Claude and other AI platforms for recommendations, local suppliers and answers to buying questions.

If your business isn’t visible where your customers are searching, you could be missing out on valuable enquiries and sales.

Join us for a practical 90-minute session designed for business owners who want to improve their online visibility, generate more enquiries and turn more searches into customers.

What we'll cover

How customers discover businesses through Google, Maps and AI platforms such as ChatGPT and Claude

Practical ways to improve your website’s visibility, performance and conversion potential

The key information, content and credibility signals that help search engines and AI tools understand and recommend your business

Which channels beyond your website can help you outperform better-known competitors

Simple actions you can take now to create a stronger, more unified digital presence

What you'll take away

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of where your business is currently being found, where it may be getting overlooked, and what you should prioritise next.

Who is it for?

Business owners and decision-makers who want to understand how search is changing and what they can do to make their business easier to find online.

Staying for the afternoon?

Once the seminar finishes, a separate FRESHnetworking Business Club event will be taking place at Hotel Voco Leicester from 12pm–2:30pm.

The FRESH event is a relaxed business networking afternoon, giving you the chance to meet other business owners, make new connections and continue conversations from the morning.

The HIKE team will also be at the FRESH event, so if you’d like to chat with them further about your business and online visibility, you’ll have the opportunity to do so.

Please note: the FRESHnetworking event is a separate event and requires its own ticket. Your free seminar registration does not include entry to FRESH.

If you’d like to stay after the seminar, you can book your FRESHnetworking ticket separately.
