    Google Business Profile impressions are dropping fast—but conversions aren’t.

    In this Near Memo episode, Greg Sterling, Mike Blumenthal, and Adam Dorfman unpack BirdEye’s latest data and explore what’s really changing in local search.

    They also dig into:

    • Category vs brand search behavior
    • Industry-level engagement differences
    • The evolving role of reviews in AI-driven results
    • Apple Maps as a quiet challenger

    If you’re trying to understand how AI is reshaping local SEO, this episode connects the dots.
