FAQs

Good questions to ask

What's AEO, and do I need it?

Answer engine optimisation is about how AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews describe and recommend your business. More people are asking AI for recommendations, so it's worth checking what those answers say about you. It builds on good SEO rather than replacing it.

Why fixed prices instead of hourly rates?

You know the cost before anything starts, and you're paying for an outcome rather than time. Each project has a written scope, and the price only changes if we agree to change the scope.

Where should I start?

For most businesses, the marketing audit. It shows what's working, what isn't and what to do first, so any money you spend after that goes on the right things.

Do you only work with businesses in Cheshire?

No. We're based in Sandbach and happy to meet local clients in person, but most work happens online, so we can work with businesses anywhere in the UK.

Is there a minimum contract for retainers?

No long tie-in. Retainers run month to month, with one month's notice to stop or change.
