Clients have started asking what AI says about them. Answering that with data, per client, is a service you can bill for.

Every agency faces the cobbler's-children test, and it has moved: prospects now ask ChatGPT and Perplexity for 'the best marketing agency in <city>' or 'top B2B SaaS agencies' — and the answer is a pre-made shortlist you're either on or not. An agency that pitches search and AI expertise while being absent from those answers is making its competitors' argument for them; one that shows up is closing before the first call.
Track the prompts your own prospects ask, the way you would for a client. The gaps — the directory you're not on, the comparison article that skips you, the thin review profile the assistants read — are the same fixes you sell, applied to yourself. Nothing demonstrates the craft like being its best case study.

Your clients are hearing about AI search from their boards, their peers and their inboxes — and they'll ask someone to handle it. The agencies that answer first with a concrete offer will take that budget; the rest will watch it go to whoever did. Reputation and AI visibility management is a natural extension of what you already sell: same clients, same retainer motion, new deliverable.
Echorank productizes it for you: tracked prompts, review management, visibility scores and citation analysis per client, delivered under your brand through the white-label dashboard. The free audit is the sales tool — run it live on a prospect's brand and their competitor's, and the gap on screen writes the proposal. Pricing the line is yours; the platform cost is one subscription across the roster.

Marketing retainers churn where results feel abstract. Visibility work has the opposite property when it's measured: the client can watch their brand enter answers it was absent from, their rating climb, their share of voice move against named competitors. Those are numbers a CFO accepts, attached to work you did.
Each client runs in its own workspace with its own prompts, competitors and baselines; your team spans all of them from one login, and month-end reporting assembles itself from the data that accumulated. The result is the agency math that matters: services sold at agency rates, delivered on platform time.
