Case studies
Twelve founder-led companies on what changed after AI answers started naming them. The quotes are theirs. The numbers are the ones they gave. A lot of them still work with us.
HOA management
31 qualified leads and four closed deals in the first quarter
“We went in with real reservations about committing budget to a channel we couldn't benchmark. Within the first quarter, The AEO Company delivered 31 qualified inbound leads from AI search and four closed deals. The engagement paid for itself well before renewal.”

27 demos from AI search in a month. #1 on Gemini.
“I'll be candid, I pushed Bash's team hard on ROI in the first month. They answered every question with data. Last month we booked 27 demos from AI search alone.”

AI-search leads close at roughly three times the Meta rate
“We were spending $8,000 a month on Meta with poor lead quality. Leads from AI search are lower in volume but close at roughly three times the rate. We have since moved half of that paid budget.”

19 qualified leads and two closed deals for the board
“My concern was having nothing to show the board after 90 days. Instead we presented 19 qualified leads and two closed deals from a channel that did not exist for us six months earlier.”

40 leads last quarter. #1 on Gemini.
“We had worked with two agencies before and both under-delivered. What set The AEO Company apart was transparency. We received raw numbers every week, including the weeks that were flat. That built the trust to stay, and last quarter we crossed 40 leads.”

A ChatGPT-sourced deal closed in nine days
“The leads arrive already informed. One prospect told us on the first call that ChatGPT had recommended us. That deal closed in nine days against our usual six-week cycle.”

22 leads in the second month, on one call a week
“We were in the middle of a product launch and I could offer one call a week at most. Bash's team worked around that completely. We saw 22 leads in the second month with almost no input from our side.”

Cost per lead about a quarter of Meta
“Our cost per lead through The AEO Company's work is about a quarter of what we pay on Meta, and the lead-to-meeting rate is considerably higher.”

14 demos in 60 days. First on Gemini and ChatGPT.
“We nearly chose a larger agency because it felt like the safer decision. Bash's team delivered 14 demos in the first 60 days. The other firm had quoted six months before we would see movement.”

Demo-to-paid from around 12% to roughly 30%. #2 on Gemini.
“Our sales team noticed the change before I told them anything. Prospects were coming in already understanding the product. Demo-to-paid conversion moved from around 12 percent to roughly 30.”

36 leads, five closed, roughly an 11× return this quarter
“This quarter: 36 leads, five closed, roughly an 11x return on fees. I came very close to not signing, and I'm glad Bash convinced me otherwise.”

Second-largest lead source, lowest cost per acquisition
“My leadership team wanted to put more into paid. We took a calculated risk on The AEO Company instead. AI search is now our second-largest lead source and our lowest cost per acquisition.”
