Frequently asked questions

Which question should we explore before choosing a solution?

Insights explains recurring buying and sales problems. Start with the issue your business faces, then use the related services or Growth Checks to consider a next step.

What is the difference between SEO, AEO and GEO?

SEO concerns visibility and usability in search. Answer engine optimisation (AEO) focuses on useful answers to buyer questions; generative engine optimisation (GEO) concerns how a business appears in generative AI answers. The practical work often overlaps: clear content, technical access and credible evidence. AI citations are observations to examine alongside relevant visits, enquiries and sales.

Read how search and AI answers connect

What changes when customers use agents to research or buy?

A customer may ask an agent to compare products, suppliers or buying terms. That raises practical questions about how clearly the business explains its offer, seller identity, prices, stock, delivery and returns. The ecommerce series examines those questions and the responsibilities around product information and buying routes.

Why can advertising generate leads that fail to become sales?

Look at the audience and offer, what the ad promises, the landing page and the sales follow-up. The same investigation can apply to Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Facebook, Instagram or TikTok. FCP’s sales and pipeline articles help frame questions about fit, qualification and progression before you decide what to change.

Read about lead quality and conversion

What should we learn from ongoing website and store reviews?

Reviews can reveal customer questions that pages leave unanswered, buying steps that cause difficulty and gaps in content or technical implementation. FCP uses those findings to prioritise relevant content, code, metadata and schema updates within ongoing support. Current platform developments and tool assessments are covered in Intelligence.
