FAQ

Common questions about Professional services engagements

What's the priority for a professional services firm starting GEO?
Senior-partner-bylined thought leadership + Wikidata entity setup for the firm + specialty-page content engineering. AI engines cite firms with named experts and structured authority; anonymous editorial does not get cited.
How long until results show for professional services?
Median time-to-cited-mention: 90-120 days. Professional services GEO compounds slower than B2B SaaS because the queries are narrower (less indexed competition) but the citation eligibility threshold is higher (firms with established reputation get cited first).
Do you work with law firms specifically?
Yes for firms with named partners + clear specialty. Generalist firms struggle to build cited authority in AI engines. Specialty firms (M&A, IP, fintech-law, etc.) fit better.
What's the engagement structure?
Month-to-month after 3-month minimum.
