Strategy without process is just expensive wishful thinking.
In our previous article, we explained why Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) represents the biggest shift in digital marketing since social media. Now comes the practical question every CMO is asking: “Okay, but how does this actually work?”
The short answer: methodically. The longer answer: through a structured, three-phase approach that treats your brand’s AI visibility like the strategic asset it’s becoming.
Here’s exactly how we help brands transition from SEO thinking to GEO domination.
Phase 1: Baseline Reality Check (Month 1)
Before we optimize anything, we need to know where you stand. Most brands have zero visibility into how AI systems currently perceive and cite their business. That ends now.
Query Generation & AI Audit: We start by thinking like your customers. Our team creates up to twenty search queries that mirror real consumer language—the kind of questions people actually ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI features. Then we systematically test how often your brand appears in AI responses across major platforms.
The output? A comprehensive baseline report that includes your current visibility score, citation analysis, and sentiment evaluation. Think of it as your brand’s first AI report card.
Technical Deep Dive: Next, we audit your website and digital assets for AI readiness. This isn’t your typical SEO audit. We’re evaluating how well your content structures, schema markup, and information architecture align with how Large Language Models actually ingest and process information.
You’ll receive a prioritized action plan with specific technical recommendations to make your brand more discoverable and citable by AI systems.
Phase 2: Strategic Optimization (Months 2-12)
GEO isn’t a “set it and forget it” strategy. The AI landscape evolves weekly, and your optimization efforts need to keep pace.
Continuous Monitoring: Our team conducts weekly visibility tracking across key AI platforms. We monitor your brand citations, track competitor movements, and identify emerging opportunities before your competition catches on.
Quarterly Strategy Refresh: Every quarter, we refresh and expand our query testing to reflect evolving consumer language and search patterns. The way people ask questions changes constantly—your GEO strategy needs to evolve with it.
Strategic Recommendations: Based on ongoing monitoring and testing, we provide continuous recommendations for content optimization, technical improvements, and strategic positioning adjustments. Think of us as your AI visibility early warning system.
Phase 3: Partnership & Reporting
Transparency isn’t optional when you’re navigating uncharted territory.
Monthly Deep Dives: Every month, you’ll receive detailed reporting on your brand’s AI visibility performance, including key findings from our testing and optimization activities. We also schedule monthly calls to discuss results and align on strategic priorities.
Quarterly Strategic Reviews: These aren’t status meetings—they’re strategic planning sessions. Every quarter, we conduct in-depth reviews to analyze trends, celebrate wins, and collaboratively plan your next moves. Your GEO strategy should be as dynamic as the technology powering it.
The Bottom Line
The future of brand discoverability starts with Generative Engine Optimization. With a structured, expert-led process, your brand doesn’t just adapt to this change—it capitalizes on it.
