Google's New 'Ask for Me' Feature

Google’s back at it again… 🤖

AI is stepping in to handle customer calls, and small businesses should get ready.

Google’s new "Ask for Me" feature within Google Business Profiles, available through Search Labs, lets AI call local businesses, ask questions, and relay answers back—so expect more AI-driven calls.

Instead of resisting, businesses can use this as a chance to engage more customers and ensure AI shares accurate info about their services.

For consumers, this is a game-changer—no more awkward or time-consuming calls.

It’s the future of customer-business interaction, so we might as well roll with it.

Will This Be Common?

Yes, this feature will likely become a standard way customers connect with businesses in the future.

As AI continues to improve, more users will embrace it, and more businesses will see these types of AI-assisted inquiries.

What should businesses do? Stay ahead by keeping your business info accurate and up-to-date in all online listings.

With AI handling more calls, you want to make sure it’s sharing the right details to attract customers and make the process as smooth as possible.
