Beacon

Get found when your customers ask AI instead of Google.

People are starting to ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google's own AI for the best spot in town. "Best pizza near me." "Good plumber in Mount Pleasant open now." The answer comes back as a short list of names. Most local businesses are not on that list, because nothing they did for old-school Google search tells the AI they exist.

Beacon fixes that. It is two jobs done together: GEO, getting you mentioned inside AI answers, and AEO, getting you cited as the answer in voice search and Google's AI overviews. Same goal. Show up when a human asks a machine.

What it does

First we audit where you show up today, or do not, across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI for the questions your customers actually ask. Then we build the pieces that get you cited: clean structured data on your site, your Google and Apple business profiles squared away, and short, factual content the AI can quote. Every month you get a report that shows where you are landing and what moved.

You see it working, every morning

Beacon comes with a daily email. Every morning you get yesterday's numbers: how many people visited your site, where they came from, and the part that matters, whether an AI sent them. The day ChatGPT sends someone to your site, you read about it over coffee. No dashboard to log into, no report to decode. One plain email with real numbers.

That is on top of the monthly visibility report, which shows where you land inside the AI answers themselves. One tells you what the machines say about you. The other tells you who walked through the door because of it.

What it costs

$1,500 to set up. The audit, the structured data, the profiles, and the first round of content.

$300 a month for tracking, upkeep, and the morning email. The models change weekly, so this keeps you current and shows you the movement. Cancel anytime.

For perspective: agencies that sell this pitch venture-backed clients at $3,000 to $5,000 to start and a couple thousand a month after. Same work, built for a Charleston small business instead of a startup.

How it works

Twenty-minute call. We run the audit and show you exactly where you stand. If it is worth doing, we set it up over a couple of weeks. Then the morning emails and monthly reports start and you watch it move. Month to month, cancel in writing anytime.

The honest part

We cannot promise you the top spot, and anyone who does is lying. These models change their answers constantly and nobody controls them. What we can promise is that we track your visibility every month so you see real movement instead of taking our word for it. No contract, no lock-in, cancel anytime. If it is not working, you walk. We are local, out in Huger, and we would rather keep you than trap you.
