This webinar was recorded on 7-28-2026.

In 2026, the gap between high-growth contractors and the rest of the market is defined by one thing: Speed to Lead. For HVACR Distributors and Suppliers, helping your customers bridge this gap isn't just a value-add—it’s a growth strategy. Watch this webinar replay as Jennifer Bagley of CI Web Group reveals how top-performing contractors are moving beyond basic websites to build AI-First Conversion Ecosystems.

This session is designed for those who want to arm their dealer networks with a practical tech stack that finds, engages, and closes customers 24/7. From dominating AI-driven search results to using "Smart Prompting" to close five-figure deals, you’ll learn the exact blueprint your contractors need to put their lead flow on autopilot while maintaining a premium human touch.

Three things you'll walk away with:

• The New Search Reality: How to ensure your dealers are the first choice across AI Overviews, Voice Search, and ChatGPT/Claude—capturing leads before they ever pick up the phone.

• The 18-Second Advantage: A blueprint for 24/7 multi-channel response (Text, Voice, Chat) that eliminates human-speed bottlenecks for your contractors.

• Dealer Growth Tools: How to empower your team with live AI sales partners that handle objections and validate quotes in real-time, increasing dealer loyalty and order volume.
