Sit down with your designated Marketing Strategist and go through your business goals, key KPI’s, budgets and most profitable services.

On a monthly basis, your Marketing Strategist will share a detailed reporting dashboard with you, including all key metrics.
AEO is about more than your website. While strong SEO foundations still matter, Answer Engine Optimisation also looks at how clearly and consistently your brand is represented across the wider online world.
Video is becoming more important across almost every marketing channel, and AI Search is no different.
With YouTube being one of the world’s largest search platforms, well planned video content can help strengthen your brand visibility online. Through Pepper Productions, we can create professional video content supported by AI optimised titles, descriptions and transcripts, helping your business build a stronger presence across both traditional search and AI driven search.
When you partner with Chilli, you gain the advantage of a connected strategy. We can plan, create, optimise and publish video content every month, ensuring your brand is consistently showing up with clear, valuable and relevant information.
Depending on your recommended strategy, your monthly AEO activity may include content planning for platforms such as LinkedIn and YouTube.
At Chilli, we work a month in advance across our client content. This means you know what is being created, when it is going live and how it supports your wider marketing strategy. Our account service process is designed to make content delivery simple, organised and stress free.
Using leading SEO and AEO software, we can track how your brand appears across AI Search prompts and monitor changes over time.
This includes reviewing whether your business is being mentioned or cited, how it is being described, which competitors are appearing and where there may be opportunities to improve your visibility. These insights help guide a more focused AEO strategy based on real data, not guesswork.
For local businesses, visibility in AI Search matters.
As the Sunshine Coast’s longest running marketing agency, Chilli understands the local market, local search behaviour and what it takes to stand out in a competitive region. We can help optimise your online presence for location based AI Search, so your business is easier to find when people are looking for trusted providers in your area.
A strong AEO strategy should not stop at visibility. Once someone finds your business, your website needs to convert them into an enquiry.
There is no point improving your visibility if your website does not clearly guide users towards taking action. At Chilli, we review your website experience, messaging and calls to action to help ensure the traffic you earn has the best chance of becoming a real lead.
We have been working with Chilli for 3+ months now on some projects. In the beginning, they took the time to understand our project goals and have done their upmost to bring that into reality. Their team is always a pleasure to deal with and we have found them to be understanding and flexible within reason. I couldn’t recommended them more.
EMT Medical Services engaged Chili Media to improve our Google Ads account, after a detailed consultation Fran took charge of our account and the phone hasn’t stop ringing. On her advice, EMT is now in the process of updating our website and SEO. All the staff at Chilli are ultimate professionals who are invested in improving our business. Di & I can’t thank them enough. They also do great coffee!!! We highly recommend Chilli.
This is an amazing company with highly skilled, well trained and organised staff. They found a solution for my business that I did not think was possible for the value they offer. Why hire a marketing person with just one skill set when Chilli can provide a range of services and solutions within a reasonable budget? The competitive advantage they have with their own production company- Pepper Productions makes for seamless execution for content creation. Great company – could not recommend them highly enough.
The team is very helpful and patient with our website project for our allied health clinic. Maddie and the web development team are very easy to work with. They always follow up with us. I definitely recommend them.
Kings Beach Surf Club’s experience with Chilli has been fantastic. We initially reached out to Chilli for our brand rollout, and from there we have been working together on several other incredible projects. Right from the first moment we met with Darren, it’s been a great experience. Darren’s and the team’s ideas right in our first conversation set us up to succeed. At Chilli, they always make you feel comfortable, simply by their knowledge and experience. They are always happy for us to come into the office, sometimes on really short notice. They were fantastic and we were comfortable from the minute we stepped in the door.
Chilli have been our partners for all things Digital, Design & Marketing for over 6 years now, and our business just continue to blossom with their help. A Fantastic result so far with yesterday’s EDM! We topped huge results in online sales yesterday. We are over the moon with this result overall, Thank You All.
We’d love to hear about how we can help – fill out the form to get the ball rolling!
AEO stands for Answer Engine Optimisation. It focuses on improving how your business appears in AI search tools, such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. The goal is to help AI tools better understand your brand, your services and why customers should choose you.
SEO helps your business appear in traditional search engines like Google. AEO builds on those foundations by helping your brand show up in AI generated answers. It looks at your website content, brand messaging, authority signals, video content, social presence and how consistently your business is represented online.
More customers are using AI tools to research services, compare businesses and make decisions. If your business is not appearing in these results, or if AI tools do not understand what you offer, you may be missing opportunities to reach customers earlier in their decision making process.
AI Search Services help improve your visibility across AI driven search platforms. At Chilli, this can include AI Visibility Audits, prompt tracking, content strategy, website optimisation, local AI search, video content planning and ongoing reporting.
No agency can guarantee that AI tools will recommend a specific business every time. What we can do is strengthen the online signals that help AI tools understand, trust and reference your brand. This gives your business a better foundation for appearing in relevant AI Search results over time.
An AI Visibility Audit reviews how your business currently appears in AI Search, how your competitors are being mentioned, which topics your brand is visible for and where there may be gaps. This helps us understand your current position before building a strategy.
Yes. Strong SEO foundations are still important. AI Search tools often rely on clear, useful and well structured online content. AEO works best when your website is technically sound, your content is helpful and your wider online presence supports your brand positioning.
Video content can help explain your services, answer common customer questions and strengthen your brand presence online. Through Pepper Productions, Chilli can support your AEO strategy with professional video content, including optimised titles, descriptions and transcripts.
Yes. Local businesses can benefit from AEO because customers are beginning to ask AI tools for local recommendations, comparisons and service providers. Chilli helps Sunshine Coast businesses improve their local AI visibility by strengthening location based content, brand clarity and trust signals.
We use industry leading SEO and AEO tools to monitor AI mentions, citations, prompt visibility, competitor visibility and campaign progress over time. You will also receive reporting and a live tracking dashboard so you can see how your visibility is changing.
AEO is an ongoing strategy, not a one time fix. The timeframe can depend on your current website, content, brand authority, competitors and how visible your business already is online. Our focus is on building a strong, consistent presence that improves over time.
Chilli combines SEO strategy, content planning, website optimisation, local marketing knowledge and video production support through Pepper Productions. This gives your business a connected approach to AI visibility, helping your brand become easier to find, understand and recommend.
Meeting face to face is always preferred as it can be helpful to call on our relevant team members if required.
However we are also happy to chat via Zoom.
