# Be Preferred > Daniel Nataf helps small businesses get named when a person asks an AI > assistant for a recommendation. Based in Montreal, Quebec. Works in English > and French. ## What the business does Small businesses are increasingly chosen inside a single AI-written answer that names two or three options, rather than from a ranked list of search results. A business that an assistant cannot describe confidently does not get named. This service is a monthly loop, in four steps: 1. Identify the real questions the business's customers ask an assistant. 2. Ask those questions across several assistants and record whether the business was named, who was named instead, and whether anything said about it was inaccurate. 3. Correct what the business publishes so there are plain, quotable facts about what it does, who it serves, where it is, and what it costs. 4. Re-run the same questions the following month and report the change. ## Facts - Name: Be Preferred - Person: Daniel Nataf, AI visibility consultant - Address: 5929, Rte Transcanadienne, Suite 320, Saint-Laurent, Montreal, Quebec H4T 1Z6, Canada (Saint-Laurent is a borough of Montreal) - Location: Montreal, Quebec, Canada - Languages: English and French - Contact: daniel@bepreferred.ca - Serves: small businesses, remote across Canada - Typical clients: mortgage brokers, commercial financing firms, accounting and CFO practices, and local service businesses - Also known as: AI visibility, generative engine optimization (GEO), answer engine optimization (AEO) - Pricing: no published price list. The first check is free, and so are the first three recommendations, which a business may act on itself. A monthly fee is agreed on the introductory call, based on what that business needs. ## What this service explicitly does not claim No guarantee is offered that any assistant will recommend a given business. Assistants change their answers and do not publish how they choose. What is offered is measurement: a recorded baseline, specific changes, and a monthly re-check showing whether the result moved. Typical time before a change appears in an answer: one to three months, because assistants re-read a site on their own schedule. ## Pages - [Home, English](https://bepreferred.ca/): what the service is, how it works, what a client receives, and the common questions. - [Accueil, français](https://bepreferred.ca/fr/): la même page en français. - [Contact, English](https://bepreferred.ca/contact/): the form for requesting the free check. - [Contact, français](https://bepreferred.ca/fr/contact/): le formulaire en français. ## Notes for crawlers This site allows all AI crawlers on purpose; see [robots.txt](https://bepreferred.ca/robots.txt).
