Who Actually Offers Monthly AI Visibility Support for Small UK Businesses?

Most AI visibility services are built for big budgets.

Enterprise retainers. Six-month commitments. Pricing that makes a small business owner close the tab immediately.

But here’s what I keep hearing from founders, freelancers, and small service businesses:

“ChatGPT recommends my competitors. I don’t even know where to start.”

That’s exactly why I built CK and Jones’ AI visibility plans around small businesses specifically.

No contracts. No jargon. No minimum six-month lock-in.

Just monthly support that tracks how AI platforms describe you, where you’re missing from the conversation, and what to do about it.

We monitor your brand across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews every single month. You get a plain-English report, an action plan, and content that actually helps AI engines understand what you do and who you serve.

Plans start from £197/month.

If you’re a UK small business owner wondering why AI search isn’t sending you any visibility, drop me a message. I’ll tell you honestly whether we can help.

Is AI search on your radar yet, or does it feel too early?

Your website is not enough anymore.

AI search also learns from reviews, posts, articles, directories and other places your business appears.

So if your competitors are being mentioned more than you, AI may trust them more.

Visibility is not just what you say about yourself.

It is what the internet says about you.

Save this for later.

Most small businesses aren't missing from ChatGPT because their work isn't good enough.

They're missing because nobody has ever told them what these tools are actually looking for.

I get asked all the time what an AI Visibility Audit involves, so I've written the whole thing up. No mystery, no black box. Here's what I check:

1. Whether you get mentioned at all. I run the questions your customers actually ask and see who comes back. Often it's a competitor you've never heard of.

2. Where the AI is getting its information. Directories, listings, review sites, the places these tools quietly trust. If you're not on them, you're not in the answer.

3. Whether your website can be read. Not by people, by machines. Most sites are written in a way that's very hard for an AI to quote.

4. The technical bit. The behind-the-scenes labelling that tells AI what your business does, where you are, and what you offer.

5. Whether you look credible. Real experience, real reviews, real people. AI is looking for proof, same as your customers are.

Then I tell you exactly what to fix first, in plain English, in order of what will move the needle fastest.

You get a report you can act on whether you work with me or not.

If you've been wondering why your competitors keep showing up in ChatGPT and you don't, this is the answer.

Your competitor is not better than you.
She’s just easier for AI to read.

Here’s what I see every week. The spa down the road has a worse website than you, and honestly, worse treatments.

But her prices, her opening hours and her service names are written in plain sentences.

Yours are sitting inside a beautiful image that took your designer three days.

AI cannot read your image. It can read her sentence.

That’s the whole difference between being recommended and being invisible. Not talent. Not years in business. Formatting.

Swipe for what AI can read, what it can’t, and the 20 minute fix.

👉🏼 Follow Cherie Jones. I’d rather tell you the annoying truth than the easy one.

The bit most people miss is that this is a different mode. Chat brings your work to Claude. Cowork brings Claude to your work. You point it at a folder, describe what you want, and come back to it done.

And before anyone panics: it cannot send email as you, and it cannot delete a single file without asking first. Every reply lands as a draft. You stay in charge of everything that matters.

I’ve written the plain English version. Setup, prompts you can copy straight in, which permission setting to use, and the house rules so nothing goes sideways. Three pages, no jargon, free.

Comment COWORK and I’ll send it over.

Something we’re genuinely proud of.

Luma House UK has been working with us for less than two months. They are a start-up introducing a completely new concept to the market: culinary wellbeing.

In that time, they have achieved an AI Visibility Score of 4.8 - outperforming established competitors who have been in the space for years.

Here is what that means in practice:

1️⃣ 5% share of voice on ChatGPT - 5 brand mentions out of every 100 tracked across the category
2️⃣ Appearing on shortlists when people search for culinary wellbeing workshops for corporate events
3️⃣ Recognised as a leading name for leadership retreats and executive experiences

AI does not hand out visibility. It reflects how clearly a brand is positioned and how well that positioning is communicated.

Luma House Marni Xuto| Cheshire | Manchester | UK got it right from day one.

If you are building a new concept and want AI to recognise you as the authority in your space, this is what focused positioning looks like.

When someone asks ChatGPT or Perplexity “who’s the best [service] near me,” a name comes back in the answer. Not a list of links. A name. A recommendation.

Here’s what most small business owners don’t realise: that recommendation isn’t random. AI engines are checking specific things before they decide who to suggest.

Four signals come up consistently across all three platforms:
1️⃣ Your Google Business Profile Complete, accurate, and regularly updated. For Google AI Overviews, this alone accounts for 25% of the recommendation decision. If it’s half-finished, you’re invisible.
2️⃣ Reviews - but not just the star rating AI engines read what your reviews actually say. Specific mentions of services, outcomes, and staff carry far more weight than a string of “great service!” five-stars. Businesses with 4.5+ stars and 100+ detailed reviews appear in AI shortlists 3.7x more often.
3️⃣ Third-party mentions Your own website barely counts here. AI engines want to see other sources - directories, industry sites, press mentions - talking about you. The more places you appear consistently, the more confident the AI is in recommending you.
4️⃣ Clear, specific content on your site Pages that answer real customer questions in plain language. A clear explanation of what you do, who you help, and where you operate. Vague or outdated content gets passed over.
None of this is complicated. But most small businesses haven’t checked any of it.
