{"faqs":[{"answer":"That's exactly what our AI Search Visibility (AEO/GEO) service does. We optimize your business so AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude, and Copilot cite you when people ask about car key replacement, lockouts, or key fob programming. We track AI citations as a distinct metric so you can see exactly which engines are recommending you.","question":"How do I get my locksmith business to show up in ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews?"},{"answer":"Yes. Our AI SDR and AI voice agents answer, qualify, and book every inquiry in under 60 seconds — 24/7, including weekends and after-hours. When a job needs a real person, the call is handed to you with full context, and bookings land in your calendar using your rules. Given that locksmiths miss an average of 23% of incoming calls, that coverage pays for itself fast.","question":"I miss a lot of calls while I'm under a dash programming a key. Can Worqd handle that?"},{"answer":"We work with local service businesses of every size, and pricing is scoped on a free growth call — priced against the results that matter to you, not the hours we log. We start by finding your bottleneck, so if your budget is better spent on follow-up or old lead reactivation first, we'll tell you that honestly.","question":"Will this work for a small mobile locksmith without a big marketing budget?"},{"answer":"Paid campaigns and outreach can start producing inquiries within days of launch. AI search visibility and SEO compound over months as the AI engines begin citing your business. We launch quickly, then learn and improve — testing what matters and dropping what doesn't.","question":"How fast will I see results from AI search visibility and your campaigns?"},{"answer":"Integrated beats fragmented. Instead of one vendor for ads, one for SEO, and one for answering phones, one partner runs the whole path from first click to booked call — one plan, one report, no vanity metrics. Our AI SDRs also qualify every inquiry in under 60 seconds at a claimed 70–lower cost per qualified conversation than a traditional SDR team.","question":"What's the difference between Worqd and hiring an SEO agency or an answering service separately?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Find the bottleneck","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We look at your buyer, offer, channels, response process, and data to find where growth is stuck — whether it's AI visibility, missed calls, or stale leads — before touching anything."},{"step":"2","title":"Build and launch fast","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"We build the plan: AI search visibility, local SEO, and paid campaigns, plus AI SDR follow-up so every car key programming and lockout inquiry gets answered in under 60 seconds.

With 67% of locksmith calls coming outside business hours, that's coverage when your competitors' phones go to voicemail. A stranded driver needing smart key programming at 1 a.m. gets a live response, a qualified conversation, and a job booked straight into your calendar — and calls can be handed to you with full context if they want a real person.","proof_point":"67% of locksmith calls occur outside business hours — every one answered in under 60 seconds"},{"icon":"Target","title":"One partner, not three vendors","gradient":"from-green-500 to-blue-500","description":"One partner, not three vendors: Paid ads, creative, local SEO, and AI search visibility all under one plan and one report — integrated beats fragmented.
