Strategists
who geek

We're not a strategy deck. We're the team that builds the schema, writes the answers, files the citations, and reads the logs at 11pm.

Origin

Est. 2015

Ten years of watching search change hands.

We started Mostly Marketing when SEO still meant blue links. We rode the mobile shift, the local pack, the featured snippet — every algorithmic step-change that reshaped how buyers find providers.

Then, in late 2022, we watched something different happen: our clients started reporting leads who opened the call with "ChatGPT sent me." That was the tell. Search wasn't shifting — it was migrating.

We spent 2023 rebuilding the playbook from scratch. Entity modeling. Citation-first content. Real-time answer-engine monitoring. What we call AEO today is the result — and it's the only thing we build now.

Principles

Four rules we won't bend.

01

No contracts.

Month to month. If we're not moving the needle, walk. That's the contract.

02

One brand per category.

We won't run two competitors in the same city. Loyalty is the moat.

03

Show the work.

You get direct Slack, live dashboards, and the raw citation logs. No black box.

04

Operators, not consultants.

Everyone on the team has run their own P&L. We know what a lead is worth.
