The Growth Programme: SEO, AEO & GEO services that turn search and AI visibility into pipeline
One programme that combines search engine optimisation, answer engine optimisation and generative engine optimisation into a single monthly machine: revenue content, earned citations and open measurement, working together.
Not three separate services bolted together. One integrated programme where every deliverable reinforces the others: your content earns rankings, your citations earn AI mentions, and your dashboard shows it all flowing to pipeline.
30 minutes. No pitch deck, no pressure.
Five reasons B2B SaaS search and AI visibility stalls
Most SaaS teams that come to us are carrying some mix of these five. The Growth Programme is built as the structural opposite of each one.
The Growth Programme is built to solve all five. Here is how each part works.
See how each part works- 01
Your SEO works, but AI search does not know you exist
You rank on Google, but when buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Gemini to recommend tools, your competitors get named. Traditional SEO alone cannot fix that, because AI engines pull from different source signals.Solved by- Earned citations
- Technical AI-search fixes
- 02
Your content targets keywords, not buying decisions
Topic plans driven by search volume produce traffic. Topic plans driven by buyer intent produce pipeline. Most SaaS content programmes are built around the wrong input.Solved by- Revenue-first keyword plan
- 03
Nobody is building your off-site citation layer
AI engines recommend brands based on third-party consensus: the listicles, review categories and publications they retrieve as source material. On-site content alone cannot win AI visibility; you need the off-site half too.Solved by- Earned link & brand mention wins
- 04
Agency fatigue and invisible deliverables
Vague “up to” counts, monthly PDFs nobody reads, and no way to tell whether the money is working. You need fixed commitments, a live dashboard and published KPIs, not another retainer you will cancel in four months.Solved by- Flat counts, not “up to”
- Live dashboard
- 05
No way to measure AI visibility
You can see your Google rankings and traffic. But you have no system for tracking whether AI engines are actually recommending you to buyers, and no way to benchmark against competitors.Solved by- Monthly AI Visibility Report
Every one of these is answered by a named deliverable. All twelve are included at every tier.
Three disciplines, one machine
SEO, AEO and GEO are not three products on an invoice. They are three halves of the same job, and they only compound when they run together.
Why they only work together
Content without citations ranks but is never recommended. Citations without content get you named with nothing to land on. Neither can be steered without measurement.
We measure whether the programme is making you easier to find, easier to cite and easier to buy from.
What the programme includes, and what each part is actually for
Every plan includes all twelve deliverables. The same senior process at every tier; only the monthly volume changes.
Open any deliverable for the problem it solves, why it matters for SEO, AEO and GEO, and what lands in your folder.
Built once, in the first weeks, so everything after it aims at the right target.
01Fast onboarding
A 40-minute questionnaire and one kickoff call, turned into a knowledge base built from your inputs, analytics and Search Console.
- The problem
- Most agencies take weeks of calls to understand your product, voice and positioning. Meanwhile, nothing ships. We front-load everything into a structured questionnaire so one call is enough, and production starts in week one.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- AI engines penalise generic content. A knowledge base with your claim boundaries, competitor set and voice rules means every page is on-brand and on-claim from draft one. No founder rework, and no published content that misrepresents your product.
- What you receive
- A completed knowledge base document (product facts, ICP, competitors, proof library, voice rules, banned claims) used as the reference for every brief, every writer and every QA check.
02Competitor review
A one-time analysis of your top 3 competitors: rankings, content gaps, authority profile, and which AI prompts they own.
- The problem
- Most competitive analysis stops at keyword overlap, which misses the AI layer entirely. You need to know not just where competitors rank, but where they are being named in AI answers and which third-party sources are causing it.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- For SEO it identifies displaceable positions. For AEO and GEO it maps the exact sources AI engines retrieve to justify their recommendations, and those sources become your citation target list.
- What you receive
- A vulnerability shortlist of 10 to 15 concrete attack points, each tagged with the deliverable that will exploit it, plus an AI-answer source citation list stored as the win-target pool.
03Quick-wins analysis
A ranked worksheet of existing pages with near-term upside: positions 4 to 15, decayed traffic, and pages that convert well but rank poorly.
- The problem
- New content takes months to gain traction, but you likely have pages already ranking that need a targeted push to start converting inside 60 days. Most agencies ignore the existing archive and start stacking new posts on a weak foundation.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- Quick wins produce the fastest visible movement on the dashboard. For GEO, refreshing these pages with extractable structures gives AI engines material they can cite from your strongest existing assets.
- What you receive
- A prioritised worksheet with each page, its baseline position, the specific action (refresh, internal links, CTA fix) and a recorded snapshot for Month-3 measurement.
04Revenue-first keyword plan
Every keyword and topic ordered by expected revenue contribution, not search volume, each mapped to the money page it feeds.
- The problem
- Keyword-first topic plans produce traffic that never becomes pipeline. When topics are ordered by buying intent, even a modest monthly count produces more leads than programmes publishing far more content aimed at top-of-funnel volume.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- For SEO, every page targets a query close to a buying decision. For AEO and GEO, buying-intent queries are exactly the prompts buyers type into AI engines. Ranking for them in Google and being cited in AI answers on the same topic is the dual-visibility play.
- What you receive
- A master targeting sheet with query, intent stage, money-page mapping, target format and calendar slot.
05Content calendar
A rolling schedule, always populated at least one month ahead. Each slot names the piece, target query, format and money page.
- The problem
- Most content programmes operate on ad-hoc topic selection. A visible, structured calendar eliminates the “what are we publishing this month?” question and ensures every slot traces back to the keyword plan.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- Consistent, planned publishing builds topical authority faster than sporadic content drops, both for Google's crawl budget and for AI engines that weigh source frequency and recency.
The two halves of visibility, shipped every month at a flat, counted volume.
06Revenue pages & articles
Comparison, alternatives, use-case and buying-intent pieces, new and refreshed, with answer-first openings, extractable structures and schema.
- The problem
- Most SaaS content is top-of-funnel informational content that ranks but never touches a buying decision. You need bottom-of-funnel and mid-funnel pages that meet buyers when they are actively comparing options, because that is the content that creates pipeline.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- For SEO these are the page types that rank on commercial queries and feed traffic to money pages. For AEO and GEO the dual-build process means every page is structurally engineered for AI extraction, making your content the source LLMs prefer to cite.
- What you receive
- Publish-ready content delivered to a shared folder: formatted copy, meta title and description, schema snippets, image notes and internal-link instructions. A flat count, verified on the tracker every month.
07Earned link & brand mention wins
Monthly placements on the industry listicles, review sites, niche publications and expert roundups that Google and AI engines trust.
- The problem
- On-site content alone cannot win AI visibility. AI engines recommend brands based on third-party consensus. If your competitors appear on those sources and you do not, no amount of on-site optimisation will close the gap.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- For SEO, earned links build domain authority and improve rankings. For AEO and GEO this is the off-site half of the equation, placing you on the exact pages AI engines retrieve when answering buyer prompts about your category.
- What you receive
- Verified live placements logged with URLs and screenshots. Each passes a three-part qualification bar: topical relevance, genuine authority, and your brand named in category context.
08Technical SEO + AI-search fixes
A living, prioritised fix list for your developers: crawlability, indexing, Core Web Vitals, structured data, llms.txt, AI-crawler access and entity consistency.
- The problem
- Technical debt caps everything else. Unindexed pages waste content spend, missing schema suppresses rich results, and blocked AI crawlers directly prevent AI engines from reading and citing your content. Most agencies deliver a one-time audit and walk away.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- For SEO it removes the infrastructure ceiling on rankings. For AEO and GEO this is where the AI-search promise becomes real: llms.txt tells AI engines what to read, structured data gives them facts to cite, and entity consistency helps them associate your brand with your category.
- What you receive
- An implementation-ready spec list, worked continuously rather than delivered once.
The feedback loop. It tells the next month where to aim.
09Monthly AI Visibility Report
Where you appear in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews, benchmarked against your top 3 competitors. Included at every tier.
- The problem
- AI search is growing, but most companies have no way to track whether AI engines are recommending them. You cannot improve what you cannot measure, and without a baseline you are flying blind while competitors take share.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- This is the feedback loop for the entire programme. The content and the citation wins both exist to move this report, and the report tells the roadmap where to aim next: which prompts to target, which sources to prioritise, which competitors to displace.
- What you receive
- A monthly report with prompt-level presence and a competitor benchmark.
10Live dashboard
A Looker Studio dashboard on your GSC and GA4 data, shared as a link you can open any day. Impressions through to pipeline, updated live.
- The problem
- Monthly PDF reports are dead on arrival. By the time you read them the data is stale. You need a live instrument you can check any Tuesday morning and forward to your CEO.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- Self-serve transparency builds the trust that carries renewal. Every programme page is tracked individually for impressions, clicks, CTR and position, so you can see exactly which pages are working.
11Monthly strategy call + continuous updates
One 45 to 60 minute strategy call a month, plus continuous asynchronous updates in Slack, email or WhatsApp, posted as things land.
- The problem
- Bi-weekly meetings drain time without adding value, but zero communication between calls kills trust. One structured call plus continuous updates replaces the meeting-heavy model without losing presence.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- The agenda is fixed: dashboard walkthrough, AI Visibility Report headlines, roadmap review, approvals and blockers. Nothing is a surprise, because anything material is posted in-channel first. The call interprets, decides and commits.
12One-page monthly roadmap
What shipped, what moved, what we are changing, what is next and what we need from you. One page, delivered before the call.
- The problem
- The champion who buys you has to justify the retainer to a founder or CFO. They need one artefact they can forward upward that proves thinking, not just output.
- Why it matters for SEO, AEO & GEO
- The roadmap carries the Scale, Optimise and Drop verdicts that steer the next month's calendar, refresh mix and win targeting. The programme self-corrects every month based on evidence.
All 12 deliverables are included at every tier. Only the monthly volume of pages and citations changes between plans.

The report the whole programme aims at
Content and citations both exist to move one number: how often AI engines name you when a buyer asks for a recommendation in your category. It is tracked monthly, benchmarked against your top three competitors, and included from the entry tier.
- Tracked across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews on a fixed prompt set.
- Benchmarked against your top 3 competitors, so the number has a scale.
- Trended month over month, so the roadmap can aim at what actually moved.
- Included at every tier. Most agencies gate this to their premium plan.
