Building a High-Intent Inbound Lead System
Whitelabeled for Client Confidentiality
How we helped a B2B services provider achieve 2.5× growth in qualified leads and reduce cost per lead using AI-optimized SEO, AEO, and CRO strategies.
The Challenge
A well-established B2B services provider was facing consistent challenges in generating high-quality inbound leads. The company had an over-reliance on outbound sales, which resulted in several critical issues:
Inconsistent Lead Flow
Lead generation was unpredictable, often causing pipeline gaps
Low Conversion Rates
Traffic was irrelevant or lacked intent, leading to poor conversions
No AI Visibility
Content wasn't showing up in AI-powered search results for decision-making queries
Our Strategy
To overcome these challenges, we developed a comprehensive SEO + AEO + CRO system that targeted high-intent decision-stage queries and optimized every aspect of the conversion funnel.
Intent Mapping
Focused on problem-aware and solution-aware queries to capture leads at the decision-making stage
Entity-Based Optimization
Leveraged entity-based SEO and schema markup to improve visibility in AI-generated summaries
Funnel Optimization
Reduced friction in lead generation by optimizing landing pages, forms, and trust signals
Execution
We put the strategy into action using the following tactics:
Topic Cluster Architecture
Created a series of interconnected service pages around core topics, ensuring that each page targeted specific decision-stage keywords.
FAQ-First Content Structure
Developed an FAQ-first structure that targeted featured snippets and rich answers to enhance visibility in AI-generated search results.
Landing Page & Form Optimization
Optimized landing pages and forms for higher conversion rates by simplifying the user experience and providing strong trust signals.
