You burn a retainer for twelve months and get a dashboard instead of a customer. And this category rebranded overnight: the same SEO deck from last year, relabeled “GEO”, at a higher price. Ask any agency pitching you AI visibility for a case study with a named client and a before and after prompt. Most cannot produce one, and the numbers you do get shown are usually traditional organic wins wearing a new title.
So we put the outcome in the contract. Deliverables, targets, and dates are agreed before kickoff, and if we do not deliver what we committed to on the timeline we committed to, you get your money back. We will never promise a model names you in every answer, because these systems are probabilistic and anyone selling that certainty is misleading you. What we commit to is measurable growth in AI citations, share of search, and qualified organic traffic, and the refund backs all of it.
The second reason is structural. Most AI SEO agencies can audit your site, restructure content, and mark up schema. They cannot put you in Forbes. We run PR, SEO and GEO, and web under one roof, so the coverage we earn becomes the citation a model repeats. Senior people run the account and we reply in 1 to 2 hours.
