The AI Engine Optimization Playbook

Get recommended by AI. Use it on your business—or sell it.

When people ask ChatGPT, Gemini, or Google, "Who's the best ___ near me?" the AI names three or four businesses. There is no page two. You're named, or you're invisible.

Agencies charge $15,000 to $33,000, paid upfront, to get businesses into those answers. We took one of those agency pitches apart—the full deck and the strategy report—and checked every technique against published research. This playbook is the result: the same process, taught instead of sold.

What's inside (41 pages)

• Part 1—Search ends before the click: what changed, and the numbers behind it

• Part 2 — A $15,000 agency proposal, decoded line by line

• Part 3 — How AI decides who to name: the research on what gets cited

• Parts 4–9—The 5-step system: audit, reverse-engineer the winners, content engine, technical setup, measurement

• Part 10—Sell it: how to package, price, and sell AEO as a service

• Part 11 — Objections, answered with data

• Part 12 — The 90-day battle plan, week by week

• Appendices—the audit tracker, six post templates, and a one-page cheat sheet

What you need A website, a Reddit account, a LinkedIn profile, and three to five hours a week. No software to buy, no team, no certifications. If you can write a plain sentence with a real number in it, you can do this work.

Who it's for: business owners who want AI to recommend them. Marketers and agencies are adding AEO to what they sell. Anyone who wants a skill businesses already pay $2,500–$5,500 a month for.
