For MSPs and IT resellers
Be the MSP that Google and AI recommend in your market
When a buyer asks Google or ChatGPT who should handle their IT, a short list comes up. I get you on it.
I test your buyers’ questions on ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Claude, then fix the reviews, pages and listings that decide who gets named.
They decide before they call you, and more of them start in AI. (G2, March 2026)

69%
chose a different vendor than the one they first planned on.

My research, October 2026
10 IT firms · 10 US markets · 16 buyer questions · 10 runs each on ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Claude. How I ran the test →
What the named firms had that the others didn’t
11 firms the assistants kept naming vs. 6 they skipped. A pattern across 17 firms in one month, not proof of cause.
What I fix
THE COGNITIVEAISEO METHOD
AI assistants do not recommend firms by chance—they synthesize sources based on accessibility, clarity, and authority. I build and optimize your firm’s digital footprint through a systematic 6-step framework:
01
Be Findable
· SEO
Ensure your website is crawlable, fully indexed across major search engines, and open to AI agents. If an assistant cannot access your data, it cannot quote you.
02
Be Consistent
· SEO + GEO
Align your firm’s name, services, locations, and strategic partners across your site, Google Business Profile, LinkedIn, and core directories, backed by matching structured schema markup.
03
Be Specific
· SEO + AEO
Build dedicated pages for every core service, solution, target industry, and key market, structured around the exact follow-up prompts AI search engines query during synthesis.
04
Be Quotable
· AEO
Format key insights into direct, concise statements supported by hard metrics, proprietary data, and authoritative sources that AI models can easily extract and cite.
05
Be Validated
· GEO
Strengthen third-party consensus through high-authority directories, partner ecosystems, client reviews, verified case studies, and media mentions that corroborate your core messaging.
06
Test, Benchmark, & Iterate
Run recurring monthly prompts across ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini, and Claude to audit recommendations, track source attribution, and patch content gaps.

Questions MSP and reseller owners ask
I get most clients from referrals. Why SEO?
Referrals slow down, and referred prospects check your site and AI answers before they call.
How long before an AI assistant names us?
A missing page can show up within weeks; reviews take two to three months. I re-test at day 60 and day 90.
What does it cost?
The audit is free. The pilot is $750 if you start before 15 December 2026, then from $1,000 a month.
Can you guarantee we show up in ChatGPT?
No, and nobody honest can. I work every factor the research supports and show you what moved and what didn’t.
