AI Search Visibility for Local Service Businesses
Be the Answer.
Not Just a Link.
When a homeowner asks Google or ChatGPT for a plumber, one or two names come back. We make sure one of them is yours, and send you a report every month showing exactly where you stand.
No sales call. No setup fee. Month-to-month on Get Found & Be the Answer. Live in days, not months.
Built for the businesses that keep the neighborhood running
Are you the business AI recommends? Somebody is.
Search has changed shape. People ask Google's AI, ChatGPT, and Siri for one recommendation — and the businesses those AIs trust win the job before anyone else knows it existed.

Up and running in three steps — no meetings required
You run service calls, not marketing calls. So we built onboarding the way you'd want it: pick a plan online, answer a few questions, and we take it from there.
Pick your plan online
Five minutes, from your truck if you want. Choose a plan, tell us about your business, done. No discovery call, no pitch deck, no "let me loop in my manager."
We run your setup sprint — free
We diagnose before we quote — same as you do. No setup fee, ever. Week one: we audit everything, fix wrong or missing info, rebuild your Google Business Profile for search, and light up the automation. You get a baseline ranking map so progress is measured, not promised.
Watch your name spread
Reviews, posts, photos, citations, AI optimization — running weekly without you touching anything. One plain-English report a month, and a real human you can text when you have a question.
Pick the plan. Skip the sales call.
Every plan is fully managed — nothing for you to log into, post, or remember. Priced in jobs, not marketing budgets. No setup fees, no build fees, prices right here on the page.

Which plan is right for you?
Honest answer: it depends on how many trucks you're running, not how much you want to spend.
| Your shop | Start here | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1–2 trucks, owner answers the phone | Get Found | You need the phone to ring more. Reviews and a managed profile do that faster than anything else at this stage. |
| 3–10 trucks, someone in the office, a website that mostly works | Be the Answer | You're already ranking somewhere. Now you need to be the name the AI gives, which means the website has to be fixed, not just recommended. |
| Established, $1M+, or a site that embarrasses you | Own Your Market | Your competitors are big enough to fight back. You need a site AI can quote, and someone looking every month for the searches nobody's winning yet. |

What to expect — honestly
Local visibility compounds. Anyone promising #1 rankings in a week is selling you something else. Here's the real curve:
First 30 days
Profile fully optimized and active. Review requests, posts, and photos running automatically. You see your baseline ranking map — the "before" picture.
Days 30–60
Movement on target keywords as the profile gains momentum. Reviews start accumulating. The map starts changing color.
Days 60–90
Meaningful ranking gains and more calls, clicks, and direction requests. This is where the needle moves, and where most competitors gave up managing it themselves.
What we don't promise
A #1 ranking. A guaranteed ChatGPT recommendation. A number of leads. Google and the AI platforms decide those, and anyone who guarantees them is guessing with your money.
What we do promise
Every item on your plan ships on schedule or that month is free. You see every post, reply, and page before it goes live. You own your profile, your site, and your content. Cancel Get Found or Be the Answer any month, no questions.
Website older than your work van?
Most of our clients keep their existing site — Get Found and Be the Answer do the heavy lifting. But if yours is unfinished, invisible, or embarrassing, Own Your Market includes a new AI-cited website: fast, answer-first pages engineered so Google and AI assistants can read, trust, and quote them — plus a monthly market report and a new page every month to fill the gaps we find.

Local service is not one market — a plumber's emergency search looks nothing like a landscaper's spring rush. We speak your customer's language:
Is this for my business?
If customers find you by searching a service plus a town — and the job is worth more than a tank of gas — yes. The eight trades above are where we've built dedicated playbooks. These are the businesses that fit just as well:
Emergency & repair trades
Plumbers, electricians, HVAC, garage door repair, appliance repair, locksmiths, water damage & restoration, septic and drain services. Someone's day is broken and they call the first name the AI gives them.
Home exterior & property
Roofers, gutter companies, siding and window installers, fence builders, concrete and paving, foundation repair, pressure washing, painters. Big tickets, seasonal spikes, and a lot of "how much does it cost" searches.
Yard, pest & outdoor
Landscapers, lawn care, tree service, irrigation and sprinkler, pest control, mosquito and termite treatment, pool service and builders. Quarterly contracts mean one search can be worth years of revenue.
Home improvement & remodel
Kitchen and bath remodelers, general contractors, flooring, cabinet and countertop shops, handyman services, custom closets, solar installers. Buyers research for weeks and ask AI to shortlist — you want to be on the shortlist.
See more business types we work with
Cleaning & specialty home services
House cleaning, carpet and tile cleaning, junk removal, movers, chimney sweeps, air duct cleaning, window cleaning, home inspectors. High-volume local searches where reviews decide the call.
Auto & equipment
Auto repair shops, body shops, tire and brake specialists, mobile mechanics, detailers, towing, small-engine and equipment repair. "Near me" plus a symptom is the whole customer journey.
Local professional & health services
Dentists, chiropractors, physical therapy, veterinarians, optometrists, med spas, family law and estate attorneys, CPAs and bookkeepers, insurance agencies. AI recommends providers by trust signals — reviews, credentials, and clear answers on your site.
Multi-location & franchise
Service franchises and owner-operators with 2–10 locations. Each location gets its own profile, pages, and AI tracking; you get one report. Ask about multi-location pricing on the scoping call.
Not on the list? If your customers search "[your service] near me," it works the same way. Run the free review and we'll tell you straight.
Who's behind this
I'm Marc. I answer the texts.
I've spent 20+ years building websites and running marketing for Houston businesses, most of them small companies with no marketing department. I started BreakAway because the tools to get found in AI search finally got good enough for a small business to afford, and the guys selling it were charging $3,000 a month and hiding the price. So the prices are on the page, there's no setup fee, and nothing publishes under your business name until I've approved it.
Not a call center. Not a sales team. One person who's accountable, with a system behind him that does the repetitive work. More about how I work →
Straight answers
How do I show up when someone asks ChatGPT for a plumber?
AI assistants recommend businesses with strong, consistent signals: an optimized Google Business Profile, accurate listings across 60+ directories, steady reviews, and content structured so machines can quote it. That's exactly the machinery our plans manage for you, every week, automatically.
What does it cost?
Get Found is $399 a month. Be the Answer is $849 a month. Own Your Market is $2,297 a month on a 12-month term with a new website included. There are no setup fees on any plan, and the Content Engine add-on is $399 a month (included in Own Your Market).
Is this SEO? I've been burned by SEO guys before.
Fair. Everyone has. Two differences. First, scope: classic SEO obsesses over your website; we manage your entire local presence: profile, maps, reviews, citations, social, and the new AI layer. Second, accountability: you get a baseline ranking map in week one and a plain-English report every month. You'll never wonder what you're paying for, and there's no setup fee and no contract holding you hostage on Get Found or Be the Answer.
How long until I see results?
The first 30 days establish the foundation: an optimized profile, automated posting, and a baseline ranking map. Days 30 to 60 typically show movement on target keywords as reviews accumulate. Days 60 to 90 are where meaningful ranking gains and more calls, clicks, and direction requests usually appear.
What do you need from me to get started?
About five minutes of answers when you sign up, and access to your Google Business Profile (we walk you through granting it, two clicks). After that, your job is answering the extra phone calls.
Do you need access to my website?
Get Found: no. Be the Answer: yes. We install schema, FAQ blocks, and answer-first page openings directly on your site, so we'll need a login to WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, GoDaddy, or whatever you're on. If nobody knows the login, that's a common problem and we'll help you recover it. Own Your Market: we build the new site, so nothing to hand over.
Do I need a new website?
Usually not. Most local businesses win with the site they have once the visibility machinery is running and the AI work is installed on it. If your site is genuinely the weak link, we'll tell you straight and show you Own Your Market. We don't sell websites to people who don't need them.
If you build my site, who owns it?
You do. Domain, content, code, everything. If you ever leave, you take the site with you. We keep clients by moving the needle, not by holding the keys.
What if it doesn't work?
Get Found and Be the Answer are month-to-month: no setup fee, cancel anytime, no cancellation fee, no 12-month agreement buried in the fine print. Own Your Market is a 12-month term because we build your website with no build fee and eat that cost up front; after year one it's month-to-month. Either way, you own the site, the domain, and the content.
