When someone asks AI who to call, we make sure it says your name.
Your customers stopped scrolling through ten blue links. They ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI for one recommendation. GeoLeo gets small businesses named in that answer, and ranked in the map results those answers are built from.
We take one business per category, per city. Your competitor can't hire us next.
Asked in ChatGPT, 8:42pm
Search split in two. You need to win both halves.
Generative Engine Optimization is the work of getting an AI model to recommend you by name. It doesn't replace local search - it feeds on it.
The answer, not the list
People ask in full sentences now, and they get back one paragraph with two or three businesses in it. There is no page two to climb onto. If the model doesn't know you exist, you were never in the running.
The map pack still rings the phone
Three listings, a star rating, a call button. For anyone with a service area this is still where the booked jobs come from - and it's the single richest source those AI answers pull from when they decide who's credible.
Here's the part most agencies miss: language models learn who you are from your Google profile, your reviews, your service pages and the places that mention you. Clean those up and you rank in Maps and get quoted by AI. That's one job, done once, paying twice.
What we actually do every month
No 40-page audit that sits in a drawer. Six lines of work, run continuously, all pointed at getting you named and getting you called.
Where most of the wins come fromGoogle Business Profile optimization
We treat your profile as the primary record AI reads about you. Correct categories and attributes, a service list written the way customers ask for it, geo-tagged photos on a schedule, weekly posts, seeded Q&A, and hours that never go stale on a holiday weekend.
Answer engine optimization
We map the real questions people ask an assistant before they buy in your trade, then build pages that answer them cleanly enough to be quoted - plain headings, direct first sentences, prices and specifics instead of adjectives.
Review engine
Reviews are the evidence an AI leans on to call you "highly rated." We set up the ask so it happens at the right moment, and reply to every review in your voice - including the bad one, which matters more than the other twenty.
Entity consistency
Same name, address, phone and hours everywhere a machine can find them. Contradictions are why models hedge, and a hedge sounds like "you may want to check with the business directly."
Local pages worth citing
One page per service, per area you actually serve, written by someone who understood the job before writing about it. Costs, timelines, what a normal call looks like - the details that make you the useful answer.
Reporting in plain English
Every month: which prompts now name you, where you sit on the map grid, calls and direction requests from your profile, and what we're doing next. One page. No jargon tax.

Where you rank across town
Position for "emergency plumber" at 25 points across a 5-mile grid, month three.
How the first ninety days go
We ask the questions your customers ask
We run your top prompts through the major assistants and record exactly who gets named today. Usually it's a competitor, sometimes it's a directory, occasionally it's nobody.
Fix the record
Profile rebuilt, listings reconciled, schema deployed, review requests switched on. This is the unglamorous month that everything else rests on.
Publish what deserves to be quoted
Service and area pages go up, posts run weekly, reviews start compounding. Models re-crawl and begin repeating what they now find.
Hold the position
We keep tracking mentions and grid rank, defend against listing spam, and expand into the next service or suburb once the first one holds.
Straightforward monthly pricing
Month to month after the first ninety days. No setup fee, no long contract, and you keep every asset we build.

Half our new patients now say they found us by asking their phone for a dentist open on Saturday. We didn't change anything about how we practice - we just finally showed up in the answer.
Questions owners actually ask
Is GEO just SEO with a new name?
They overlap, and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something. The difference is the target: SEO works to win a click on a results page, GEO works to be the sentence a model produces when no results page appears. That changes how pages get written, how facts get structured, and which sources matter. Your Google profile and your reviews carry far more weight in GEO than they ever did in classic SEO.
How long before anything changes?
Map pack movement usually shows in six to ten weeks. AI mentions are slower and lumpier, because models refresh on their own schedule - most clients see the first new citations between month two and month four. Anyone promising week-one results is guessing.
Do you need access to my Google account?
We need manager access to the Business Profile, not ownership. You stay the owner, you can remove us in two clicks, and nothing we build is held hostage if you leave.
