AEO Playbook: Get Cited by ChatGPT & Gemini

Your customers stopped Googling

They ask ChatGPT "who's the best [your service] near me?" - and whoever the AI names wins the customer. If it's not you, you never even knew the sale existed. This is the new front page, and most businesses are invisible on it.

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is how you get named. This skill turns your agent into an AEO strategist. Describe your business - even in one vague line - and it delivers a complete, personalized plan you can start today. No agency retainer, no monthly tool, no jargon.

What you get in every plan

1. Your starting position - an honest read of where you stand on the four things AI weighs: entity clarity, content structure, off-site trust and crawlability - ending with the ONE weakest link to fix first
2. The questions you must own - 15-20 real questions your customers actually type into AI, tiered by intent, so you know exactly what to win (and can test who gets named today)
3. Your entity foundation - an identity block and a "how to describe us" line that make AI describe your business correctly and consistently everywhere
4. Answer-ready content - the 40-60 word answer blocks, question-shaped headings and FAQ that get pages quoted, with a filled example and a reusable template
5. Schema, done for you - ready-to-paste JSON-LD code (Organization / LocalBusiness / FAQPage) with placeholders, so AI can read exactly what your page is
6. An off-site citation plan for YOUR industry - the directories, review platforms and communities AI trusts in your category, plus a polite listicle-inclusion outreach template
7. A zero-cost tracking routine + a 30-day roadmap - week by week, prioritized P1/P2, so you always know the next move

Why it works

The plan encodes what actually earns AI citations: brands are cited far more through trusted third-party sources than their own site, so it weights reviews, directories and genuine community presence as heavily as your pages. It leads with a clear extractable answer, names real entities, and keeps content fresh - the moves research shows move the needle.

And it stays honest: it never invents a statistic, a review or a credential to pad your site - anything it can't know is bracketed for you to fill with something real and verifiable. It never promises a guaranteed ranking or citation, because no engine guarantees inclusion; it optimizes the signals proven to raise your odds.

Works for local businesses, service providers, coaches, clinics, online stores and more, in any country and any currency.
