Search is changing.

At RISE at Roosevelt University, Patrick Panayotov shared a great example:

Instead of searching “window repair near me,” people can now ask AI exactly what they need and get a recommendation.

That’s why SEO + GEO + AEO matter.

It’s no longer just about ranking.

It’s about being the business AI recommends.

B2B buyers are increasingly using ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews to research vendors, compare options, and build shortlists.

That changes what visibility means. Ranking on Google still matters, but being cited in AI-generated answers is becoming another important part of the buyer journey.

Our latest guide explores how AI is changing B2B search behavior, why traditional traffic metrics can be misleading, and what companies can do to improve their visibility across AI search.

Choosing a B2B marketing agency? Look beyond rankings and traffic.
Ask three questions:

• Do they have experience with B2B companies like yours?
• Can they connect marketing activity to qualified leads and revenue?
• Do they have a clear strategy for visibility in AI search?

Strong marketing is not just about being found. It’s about being found by the right buyers and turning visibility into business opportunities.

Read our guide to choosing a B2B digital marketing agency in Chicago.

One thing that can make or break a marketing campaign has nothing to do with SEO, Google Ads, or AI.


It’s whether your marketing team actually understands the business.

- What services make you the most revenue?
- Which customers are the best fit?
- Who are you competing against?
- Which areas do you want to reach?
⭐ And most importantly, what does success actually look like for your business?

Those answers should shape your marketing strategy.

That's why at Proceed, we believe your marketing team should do more than manage campaigns. They should understand the business those campaigns are meant to grow.

Our clients work with a designated marketing professional who takes the time to understand their industry, goals, customers, competition, and market.

Because when we understand what makes your business unique, we can build a marketing strategy that actually reflects it.

Where should your B2B marketing budget go: SEO or Google Ads?
The answer isn’t as simple as choosing one over the other.

Google Ads can help capture demand from buyers who are actively searching for a solution right now. SEO takes a longer-term approach, helping your company build visibility while potential customers are researching, comparing providers, and figuring out what they need.

For B2B companies with longer sales cycles, understanding when and how your buyers search can make a major difference in where your marketing dollars go.

So, should you invest more in SEO, Google Ads, or a combination of both?

Our latest article breaks down the key factors to consider before making that decision.
