Your clients are already asking why ChatGPT recommends their competitors. Most agencies do not have an answer yet.
That is the opening. Published GEO agency retainers start at about £2,500 a month and run past £12,000.1 Clients pay that because the problem is real. ChatGPT’s shopping results usually show three to five products.2 A brand outside that list does not lose a ranking position. It loses the sale.
So why are so few ecommerce agencies selling it? Because done by hand, GEO eats senior time.
What the work actually involves
A GEO retainer for an online store has four parts:
- Start. Test what the AI says today. Ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude the buying questions in the client’s category, and record who gets named and which pages get cited.
- Optimise. Rewrite the product pages so an engine can read, check and quote them. Add structured data that matches the page. Publish llms.txt, agents.md and buying guides on the client’s domain.
- Measure. Re-run the test every week and report what moved.
- Influence. For the answers decided on other sites, write briefs and pitches for the lists, reviews and forums the engines cite.
Done by hand across a 2,000 product catalogue, step two alone is months of senior work. That is why the margin disappears.
Senior problem becomes junior problem
Geoffy does the engineering and the weekly test. The system writes a verified answer block onto every product page, checks every claim against the client’s own product data, and keeps the page, the block and the structured data in step when a price or spec changes. A junior reviews and approves. Your senior people keep the strategy, the reporting and the client.
The agency platform gives you one login for every client, quick switching between clients and access for your whole team. You place the influence work and bill for it. The client gets the outcome, and you keep the margin. Talk to us for agency pricing.
Any platform, not just Shopify
Geoffy has native apps for Shopify and WordPress. Magento, Adobe Commerce, BigCommerce and custom builds work today: your developers integrate Geoffy from geoffy.ai/docs, at the same price. Or they give one line to their coding agent:
Add Geoffy to my storefront: geoffy.ai/docs/SKILL.md
The agent writes the code. Your team verifies the domain and publishes.
How to win the first client
Do not lead with the technology. Run a free prospect scan on the client’s store, and walk into the meeting with the questions where AI names a competitor instead of them. Nothing sells GEO like a client seeing their rival in the answer.
