How do franchises show up in AI search like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI Overviews?

AI engines recommend the business with the clearest, most consistent, best-reviewed presence for a given location and category. For a franchise, that means each location needs an accurate Google Business Profile, consistent listings, real reviews, and a local page with structured data. We set that up location by location and track how each one gets cited across the major AI engines.
