How Do I Rank on Google AI Overviews?The Interactive
7.5-Step Playbook

You are my AI search editor. I run a [TYPE OF BUSINESS, e.g. roofing company] in [CITY, STATE].

Here is the page I want Google AI to quote:
[PASTE THE FULL TEXT OF THE PAGE]

The question my customer types is: "[THE QUESTION, e.g. how much does a new roof cost in Tampa]"

Rewrite the first 50 words so the very first sentence answers that exact question.

Rules:
- Sentence one is the answer. No warm up. No "welcome to our website".
- Put a real number in it. A price, a time, a year count. Use only numbers I gave you above. Do not make one up.
- Then write a 2 sentence answer block that sits under my headline and still makes sense with nothing around it.
- 5th grade reading level. Short sentences. Second person.

Give me the new first 50 words, the answer block, and one line on what you changed and why.

You are my structured data developer. Write FAQPage JSON-LD for one of my service pages.

Business: [BUSINESS NAME]
Service this page is about: [THE SERVICE, e.g. water heater replacement]
City and state: [CITY, STATE]
Page url: [URL]

Here is what the page already says:
[PASTE THE PAGE TEXT]

Do this:
1. Pull the 5 questions a real customer would ask about this service. Use questions the page already answers. If the page does not answer one, tell me instead of inventing an answer.
2. Write each answer in 40 to 55 words. Plain words. No sales talk.
3. Output valid FAQPage JSON-LD in a single script tag I can paste into the head.
4. Give me the Google Rich Results Test url so I can check it.

Do not add prices, guarantees, or claims that are not in the text I pasted.

You are my local listings auditor. Here is my business the way I want it written everywhere:

Name: [EXACT BUSINESS NAME AS IT SHOULD APPEAR]

Here is how it reads right now. Paste each one word for word:

Anywhere else I am listed: [PASTE]

Do this:
1. Pick one master version. Write it out once. That is the only version I use from now on.
2. Give me a table. One row per listing. What it says now, what it should say, MATCH or FIX.
3. Give me the exact text to paste into every listing marked FIX.
4. Name 12 more directories a [TYPE OF BUSINESS] in [CITY, STATE] should be on. Put the ones I am most likely missing at the top.

Plain words. Short sentences. Do not add details I did not give you.

You are my local outreach writer. I run a [TYPE OF BUSINESS] in [CITY, STATE].

Do this:
1. List 15 kinds of pages that publish "best [MY TRADE] in [CITY]" style roundups. Local blogs, trade publications, city guides, chamber pages, neighborhood sites. Describe each one so I can go find it.
2. Rank them easiest to hardest for a small business with no PR budget. Say why each one ranks where it does.
3. Write me one short pitch email I can send to the top three. Under 150 words. Say what I do, the city I serve, and one concrete reason I belong on their list.
4. Give me a one line follow up to send seven days later if nobody replies.

Here is what makes me worth listing:
[YEARS IN BUSINESS, REVIEW COUNT, ANYTHING YOU ARE KNOWN FOR]

Use only what I gave you. Do not invent awards, numbers, or credentials.

You are my content planner. I run a [TYPE OF BUSINESS] in [CITY, STATE].

Here are the questions customers ask me most:
[LIST 5 TO 10 QUESTIONS YOU GET ON THE PHONE]

Do this:
1. Turn these into 5 list post titles in the style of "10 Signs You Need a New Roof" or "7 Ways to Cut Your AC Bill". Each title has a number in it.
2. Rank them by which one is most likely to get quoted by Google AI. Say why in one line each.
3. Take the top one and give me the full outline. Every list item gets a bolded one line answer, then 2 to 3 sentences under it.
4. Write the first item out in full so I can hear the voice.

Rules:
- 5th grade reading level. Short sentences. Second person.
- Every item has to make sense lifted out on its own.
- Do not invent statistics. If a number would help, mark it [FIND A SOURCE] and move on.

[PASTE THE FULL TEXT]

Do this:

4. Write the updated opening paragraph.
5. Remind me in one line what to do about the published date and the url.
