Service — The Ai-Search & Content Authority Program

How the ai-search & content authority program fits with the other six deliverables

The ai-search & content authority program is one of seven deliverables, and it only does its job when the three Foundation steps have already produced theirs.

Published Growth-Scaling pricing and this topic’s row in Sitemap v9.

The ladder has a fixed order: Assessment, Brand Book, Plan of Action — then whichever recurring programs the Plan specifies.

This deliverable’s own job: content built to be the source an answer engine cites and a researcher trusts.

Step by step

  1. The Foundation comes first

    $4,500 for three steps. Nothing recurring is scoped before those exist.

  2. What this one consumes

    The outputs of whatever precedes it. That is why the order is not negotiable.

  3. What it hands forward

    Content built to be the source an answer engine cites and a researcher trusts — which the next thing built depends on.

  4. Which programs run alongside

    The Plan decides. Some businesses need one recurring program, some need none, and a few need three.

  5. What the floor is

    $5,000 a month combined for anything recurring, whichever programs the Plan names.

Common mistakes

Buying deliverables à la carte

The ladder is a sequence, not a menu. Individually purchased steps produce individually useless outputs.

Assuming more programs means faster growth

Usually the opposite. Focus is what the Plan is for.
