The shift

Your customers are asking AI what to buy.

Shoppers now ask ChatGPT for the best product for their exact problem, and it answers with a short list of brands. Those shoppers arrive ready to buy and convert far better than other traffic. If your store isn't giving AI the right information, you're not on that list, and a competitor is. And when they do find you, your store has to close the sale.

01

Shoppers ask AI instead of searching.

AI gives a short list, not ten blue links.

02

AI picks from what it can read and trust.

Your product data, and what reviews, comparisons, press and social platforms say about your products.

03

AI shoppers arrive ready to buy.

They convert far better than other traffic, if your store closes the sale.

What I do

Two engines. One goal: more sales from AI.

AI Search

Get recommended.

I make your store fully readable to AI. I find the sources AI relies on when shoppers ask about products like yours, and help you earn real coverage in them. Then I track how often AI recommends your products for the questions buyers ask.

How AI search works →
CRO

Get the sale.

I rebuild the pages, offers and funnels where shoppers drop off, so the high intent traffic AI sends you, and everyone else, turns into revenue.

How I approach CRO →

Most brands get these from two different places, if they get them at all. One without the other leaves money on the table.

What AI sees

This is the new shelf.

When a shopper asks ChatGPT what to buy, it names a few brands and moves on. There is no page two.

Is your brand on this list? Most aren't, and they don't know it.

What's the best natural moisturizer for sensitive skin?

Here are three good options for sensitive skin:

  1. Brand A. Fragrance free, with ceramides and a short ingredient list.
  2. Brand B. Lightweight, dermatologist tested and widely reviewed.
  3. Brand C. Rich and calming, often recommended for dry, reactive skin.
Example answer. Brand names are placeholders.

How AI decides

AI recommends the brands it can read, trust and verify. That comes down to four things, and then the store has to close the sale. I work on all of it, product by product, and measure whether AI's answers change.

01

Complete product data

Every product described fully and consistently, so AI can say what you sell without guessing.

02

Product pages that answer buyer questions

The facts shoppers ask about, like what it's made of, who it's for and how it compares, written so AI can quote them accurately.

03

Crawler access

AI crawlers that can actually reach your pages.

04

Coverage in the sources AI relies on

When shoppers ask about products like yours, AI leans on in depth reviews, comparisons and expert write ups. Real, detailed coverage carries weight. Empty praise doesn't.

Then

Conversion: turning AI shoppers into orders

AI sends shoppers who are ready to buy. Product pages, offers and checkout decide whether they do.

How it works

Audit, build, measure.

Step 1

AI Search and Conversion Audit

I test the questions real buyers ask about your products in ChatGPT and other AI tools, and see who gets recommended instead. Then I map where your store is losing sales. You get a prioritized plan.

Step 2

Build or retainer

Implement the plan in a fixed 3 to 4 week Build, or on a retainer that implements it and keeps growing from there.

Step 3

Measure

I rerun the same questions and track AI driven traffic and sales, so you can see what changed.

A store that leaked buyers became one that improves every month.

Over 4x more customers choosing subscribe and save.

Before: strong first orders, weak repeat revenue, and subscription and upsell apps working against each other.

About

Why me.

I'm Carson. I've led AI search work for national brands in vitamins, skincare, cosmetics, food, pet and wellness, from the audit and plan to the implementation. Before that I spent years running conversion and testing programs, affiliate programs and full rebuilds for Shopify brands from seed stage startups to billion dollar companies. That combination is the point: I know what makes AI recommend a brand, and I know what makes the visitor buy.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is AI search?

Shoppers asking ChatGPT, Google's AI answers and similar tools what to buy, and getting a short list of recommended brands.

What makes your approach different?

Most AI search work stops at the category level: a list of generic questions and a markup checklist. I work product by product. For each product that matters, I find the questions its buyers actually ask, which competing products AI recommends instead and why, and what AI gets wrong about it. Then I fix the store side myself, from product data built for each product to the pages that close the sale, and measure whether AI's answers change. The store work and the conversion work are done by the same person, so the traffic AI sends actually turns into orders.

Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend us?

No one honestly can. I measure how often AI recommends your products for their buyer questions before and after the work, and track AI driven traffic and sales, so you see exactly what moved. On site work is one part; in depth reviews, comparisons, press and retail listings matter too, and the audit shows which ones apply to you.

How do you measure AI traffic when most of it shows up as direct?

Analytics tools undercount AI. Clicks from Google's AI answers are counted as regular search, and many shoppers read an AI answer, then type your name or URL. So I don't rely on referral numbers alone. I track how often AI recommends your products for their buyer questions month over month, and pair that with signals from your store data and from customers themselves. You see the trend in your monthly report.

Why is there a 3 month minimum on retainers?

AI search and off site work take 60 to 90 days to show. The audit and Build are the low commitment ways to start.

Do I stay in control?

Always. I propose, you decide, and nothing goes live without your sign off.

Who do you work with?

Shopify brands, especially in wellness, supplements and beauty, from startups to billion dollar companies.
