01 / The shift

Your buyers changed how they research. Most supplier websites haven't.

73%1
of B2B buyers now use AI tools in purchase research
66%2
of senior decision-makers use AI to research suppliers — and 90% trust what it tells them
51%3
of B2B software buyers now start their research with an AI chatbot

When a procurement manager asks ChatGPT for "a precision machining supplier in the Midwest," that answer comes from somewhere: supplier content the AI can read, extract, and cite. Pages that win those answers are structured to be quoted — direct answers up front, clean spec tables, consistent terminology.

If a competitor's pages are more extractable than yours, they get named. You don't. We answer the common questions about this in plain language — no gate, no form.

02 / The offer

Two ways to work with us. Both judged on deliverables.

AI-Search Audit + Starter Content

$500 · FIXED SCOPE · 2 WEEKS
  • 15 real buyer queries run across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews — who gets cited, you or your competitors, logged query by query
  • Gap analysis: where the AI answers in your niche come from, and why you're absent
  • 90-day content map — 12 prioritized topics
  • 2 complete, ready-to-publish articles
  • 15–20 minute debrief call, reviewed together
Fixed scope. Fixed price. If you continue, the pilot fee is credited to your first retainer month.

Content Engine

$1,250/MO · MONTH-TO-MONTH · 30-DAY NOTICE
  • 4 long-form articles per month (1,200–1,800 words), built from your team's expertise via one short async questionnaire — no standing calls
  • AI-extractability rewrites for 2 existing pages per month
  • Implementation-ready JSON-LD schema snippets
  • Monthly AI-Visibility Snapshot — 10 tracked buyer queries across 4 engines, logged against the prior month, one-page summary
Delivered as Google Docs and snippet files; your team publishes. Next month's calendar arrives at each close. No long-term contract — the work has to earn the next month.
03 / Process

Your expertise is the raw material. We never invent a technical fact.

01

Audit

We map where the AI answers in your niche come from today, and exactly where you stand in them.

02

Questionnaire

One ~30-minute async questionnaire captures your products, materials, tolerances, certifications, and the questions buyers actually ask.

03

Production

We draft, structure, and fact-check every piece against your inputs. A human reviews everything before it's delivered.

04

Snapshot

Every month closes with a tracked-query log against the prior month — visible progress, on the record, judged by you.

04 / Straight answers

Frequently asked questions

Do you guarantee rankings or AI citations?+
No — and you should be skeptical of anyone who does. AI engines change constantly. Our scope is defined by deliverables: audits, articles, page specs, schema, and the monthly Snapshot. You judge the work every month, and you can leave with 30 days' notice.
Do you use AI to produce the content?+
Yes — AI-leveraged production with human review on everything that ships. Every technical claim — spec, tolerance, material grade, certification — is sourced from your questionnaire answers or your published materials. Anything unsourced doesn't ship.
How much of our team's time does this take?+
About 30 minutes in month one for the questionnaire, then a few minutes a month. No standing calls. Discovery and debrief calls are scheduled at booking.
What if we don't get the questionnaire back to you one month?+
Nothing stalls and nothing gets invented. We substitute topics we already have verified input for — it's written into the agreement.
Who owns the content?+
You do. All IP transfers on payment. Everything is delivered in editable formats your team publishes on your own site.
Why is the pilot only $500?+
It's deliberately small — a fixed two-week scope so you can judge us on actual work product instead of promises. The fee is credited to your first retainer month if you continue.
What kinds of companies is this for?+
Specialty manufacturers and industrial distributors, typically $2–25M revenue, with little or no in-house marketing staff. If you're bigger and fully staffed, an enterprise agency is probably a better fit — we'll say so.
