DH Marketing launches free B2B visibility audit for AI search

DH Marketing, LLC has introduced a free B2B Visibility Audit for regional distributors, niche manufacturers and growth-stage B2B tech companies as AI assistants increasingly shape how buyers choose vendors. The Adairsville, Georgia firm is pairing the audit with sonic branding services through SonicBranding.Pro to help brands stay consistent and recognizable across search, sales and trade channels.

Why it matters: - Regional distributors and manufacturers are losing control of how they appear when buyers search Google or ask AI assistants for trusted vendors. - The new audit is designed to expose those visibility gaps before competitors shape the answer first. - DH Marketing is targeting companies that rely on branch networks, local listings and reseller materials, where inconsistency can weaken brand trust.

What happened: - DH Marketing, LLC launched its B2B Visibility Audit on August 5, 2026. - The free diagnostic is built for multi-location regional distributors, niche manufacturers and growth-stage B2B tech companies. - The audit looks at how a company shows up in Google search and in AI assistants such as ChatGPT and Gemini. - Founder Dennis Hughett is leading the effort after 30 years in brand and marketing leadership.

The details: - The audit checks how a company appears for core products, services and categories. - The audit reviews what AI assistants and large language models currently say about the company and its leadership. - The audit evaluates consistency across messaging, collateral and local listings across locations or divisions. - The audit flags distributor, rep and reseller materials that may be outdated or off-brand. - The audit identifies opportunities to close visibility gaps through PR, content and stronger digital authority. - Hughett previously helped scale a regional and national electrical and lighting supply distributor with multiple storefronts. - Hughett also worked with a national lighting manufacturer before founding DH Marketing. - His prior in-house leadership contributed to more than $12.96 million in inbound revenue and $11.32 million in eCommerce growth for the distributor. - His work at the lighting manufacturer spanned packaging and digital campaigns across seven international manufacturing partners. - DH Marketing says its retainer model now brings that approach directly to clients. - Average Joe’s Lawncare used DH Marketing to unify brand assets, signage, wearables and social presence, which the company says produced a 23% profitability lift in the first season. - Joe Scott, owner of Average Joe’s Lawncare, called DH Marketing an invaluable partner. - DH Marketing also helped PrintGraphics transition from a national print franchise into an independent brand. - Andrew Eichenblatt, former owner of PrintGraphics, praised the work as experienced and fairly priced. - The company’s sonic branding division, SonicBranding.Pro, creates 100% human-made, fully copyrightable sonic logos and audio brand assets for B2B companies. - Sonic branding is meant to give brands a recognizable sound in trade shows, on hold, in sales videos and in webinars. - Companies can claim the audit at no cost and with no obligation through the audit page.

Between the lines: - DH Marketing is framing AI search as a new competitive layer in B2B marketing, not just another channel to optimize. - The company is pairing analytical visibility work with sonic branding to offer both discovery and recall. - That combination suggests a pitch to firms that need consistency across many touchpoints, not only better rankings.

What's next: - DH Marketing is directing multi-location distributors, niche manufacturers and B2B tech companies to use the free audit now. - The firm is positioning its retainer services as the follow-on path for companies that find brand or visibility gaps. - More information is available in the full announcement and Q&A.
