01
Week 1
Diagnose
We map every place your store is leaking organic revenue right now, pages Google can't read, pages competing with each other, pages that rank but don't convert. No templated audit decks.
02
Week 2
Prioritise
Every leak gets a dollar number and an effort score. You leave with the three biggest levers, in order, and a clear answer to 'where's the next $50K/mo coming from?'
03
Weeks 3–8
Ship
Hands on the keyboard. Your dev team or ours, we don't care, as long as the work ships. Most engagements see the first measurable lift between week six and week eight.
04
Ongoing
Measure
Every action tied back to organic-attributed revenue, contribution margin, and payback period. Reporting reads like a finance memo, not a dashboard screenshot.
// FAQ
Thequestionseveryfounderasksfirst.
Overlapping, not identical. Getting cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews requires brand clarity (so AI knows you exist as a real entity), third-party proof (so AI trusts your claims), and machine-readable signals (so AI can parse your store). Most of this also helps classic Google rankings, but some of it is genuinely new work the SEO industry calls AEO and GEO.
No. We focus exclusively on DTC ecommerce because that's where our pattern recognition, vendor stack, and revenue models compound. If your business is something else, local services, B2B SaaS, lead-gen, we'll happily refer you to operators who specialise in your vertical.
No. Engagements are month-to-month. Cancel any month. We do quarterly check-ins so you can decide whether to keep going, scale up, or step back, but the work isn't held hostage by a 12-month minimum.
Organic-attributed revenue, organic conversion rate, and contribution margin. We don't optimise for impressions, clicks, or rankings unless they tie directly to a revenue lever for your specific store. If a piece of work isn't moving those numbers, we drop it from your invoice next sprint.

The other nine levers in the kit. Pulled together with this one, or as their own engagement.
The audit names the gaps. AI search strategy ships the work to close them, brand-clarity, structured tags, third-party proof, citation outreach. The single biggest input AI engines weight is source quality, which is why editorial link building is the lever that compounds across both classic and AI search.
