Map their decisions to evidence and service scope rather than treating one AI mention as a completed sale. ## Map roles to questions The user wants operational fit, the technical reviewer needs dependencies, management needs a credible business case and procurement needs terms and acceptance. Keep one service owner explaining the actual engagement, supported by methodological guides where detail is needed. A long buying cycle can revisit the same evidence through several people and channels. ## Publish what can be verified Describe input requirements, deliverables, client responsibilities, implementation boundaries and review criteria. Use approved customer proof only when permission exists; otherwise provide a clearly illustrative sample and a transparent method. A niche service often needs a precise qualification explanation more than a generic “best agency” claim. ## Connect content to qualified demand Define a qualified enquiry with the business before counting it. Record observed source information and optional self-reported discovery where appropriate, without placing personal data into general analytics. Separate successful contact, sales qualification and signed work. Use handover records and periodic review to support retention; AEO alone does not operate the entire customer relationship. ## Continue with the related decision - [AEO learning paths](https://gavek.dk/aeo/) - [Answer Engine Optimization: useful answers built on sound SEO](https://gavek.dk/learn/answer-engine-optimization/) - [Discuss the scope of AEO and AI-search work](https://gavek.dk/services/ai-search/) ### Sources, method and review information Editorial publisher: Gavek.
