Worked example
What this looks like for a mid-market B2B SaaS company
A realistic scenario for a Series B B2B SaaS company with a £30,000 average contract value, 40,000 monthly website visitors, and a current AI citation rate close to zero, which is where most enterprise companies we audit actually sit.
Company profile
A Series B B2B SaaS platform targeting enterprise operations teams. Strong Google rankings, good organic traffic, zero AI visibility strategy in place. AI audit reveals 0% discovery citation rate and 15% brand citation rate on Sonnet 4.6.
The ROI calculation
At 5% citation rate, this company receives approximately 160 AI-referred visitors per month (40,000 x 8% x 5%). At 14.2% conversion that yields roughly 22 qualified conversations and, with a typical close rate, about 4 to 5 deals.
At 75% citation rate, the realistic GEO target after 90 to 120 days of systematic content and authority building, they would receive approximately 2,400 AI-referred visitors per month. At 14.2% conversion that is 340 qualified conversations and approximately 60 to 65 deals per month from AI-referred traffic alone.
The difference between 5% and 75% citation rate, across 12 months, at a £30,000 ACV and 14.2% conversion rate. This figure does not include the compounding effect of AI visibility on brand recognition, direct traffic and word-of-mouth. It is the conservative, direct-attribution calculation only.
The key insight
Every month at 5% citation rate is a month at £140,000 in foregone AI-attributed revenue. The GEO gap does not pause while you decide whether to act, it compounds.
Why the differential exists
Why AI search visitors convert at 14.2% while Google organic converts at 2.8%
The conversion rate differential is not a statistical quirk. It reflects a structural difference in buyer intent at the moment of arrival.
