GEO for consultants & agencies: be the recommendation, not the competitor

Updated: 15 July 2026

For consultants and agencies, GEO means being mentioned by AI when someone asks “which agency for [service]?”. You win it with proven expertise: case studies, clear service pages, mentions on trusted sources and a strong personal brand for your people.

B2B is judged on credibility

Anyone looking for a consultant wants proof of ability. AI mentions those who look demonstrably expert — through results, not claims.

Case studies are fuel for AI

Specific results (industry, problem, numbers) on structured pages give AI reasons to recommend you. A “we helped e-shop X grow revenue by Y%” is easy to cite.

Service pages that answer questions

One page per service, with a clear “what, for whom, how”, an FAQ and Service schema — instead of a generic “Services” page.

Personal brand matters

In B2B, customers choose people too. If AI “knows” your founder or expert (talks, articles, mentions), the company benefits. Often the personal brand moves first and pulls the company along.

What to do first

  • Check whether AI mentions you for your core services.
  • Structure case studies and service pages with schema.
  • Build authority — mentions and personal brand.
  • Re-measure every month.

Frequently asked questions

I'm a small agency — do I stand a chance against the big ones?

Yes, in a focused niche. AI prefers the clear specialist for a specific need over the generic “big” option.

How many case studies do I need?

Quality over quantity. A few specific ones, with numbers and industry, are worth more than many vague ones.

Should I invest in personal or company brand?

Both — often the personal one moves first and helps the company follow.
