RB2B are coming for the incumbent with AI search. 2yr old vs 14yr old SaaS. Here's our game-plan this month for Adam Robinson to keep ramping organic market share and pipeline from SEO/AEO:

QUICK SNAPSHOT.

Our focus is to continue driving sign-ups as quick as humanly possible from SEO/AEO and earning mindshare for RB2B whenever ICPs need visitor identification software, are comparing vendors, annoyed with their current provider or have the expensive problem we solve.

We've seen solid AI & search wins against long-term competitors (see images).

We’ll keep prioritizing competitor-focused bottom funnel KWs to capture high-intent demand. The plan includes 2x product listicle articles and 2x pricing-intent pages, targeting folks in evaluation or purchase mode.

“Uplead alternatives” pages across multiple domains are currently driving high-value traffic, indicating strong switch intent. RB2B can intercept this demand with a differentiated alternative page. “Hunter io pricing” represents a high-volume BOFU query where capturing comparison-driven traffic to directly influence purchase decisions.

We're crafting a comprehensive guide on “Lead scoring best practices”, a strong mid-funnel topic for RB2B because buyers searching it are actively trying to improve lead prioritization and sales efficiency. It allows RB2B to reframe why traditional scoring fails and position real-time website intent as the missing input that makes lead scoring actionable.


NET NEW CONTENT CREATION.

listicle articles:
- uplead alternatives
- happierleads alternatives

a quick summary and intro, why listen to us, what is uplead/happierleads, why look into alternatives (based on what prospects say e.g. on G2), list of 10 alternatives, RB2B at #1 with why customers choose them, show product in action, pricing and feature info, where we are a good + poor fit then list of 10 other options below with fair summary + conclusion and FAQs.

listicle and alternative/competitor content on your own site is solid for being cited and recommend in AI search and enables you to control the narrative with dream clients on ChatGPT and google ai overviews.

pricing guides:
- hunter io pricing
- snitcher pricing

these pages review the software pricing, share user feedback, breakdown of costs and share where RB2B is differentiated and why customers choose them. plus they often rank well within 90 days.

mid-funnel guide:
- lead scoring best practices


EARN BACKLINKS.

Secure niche relevant da50+ backlinks for:
- sales outreach strategy
- sales outreach plan
- lead capturing
- how to identify website visitors


EXTERNAL LISTICLE ARTICLE PLACEMENTS.

Secure placements on articles evaluating software like ours that are well ranked in google and AI searches for:
- sales prospecting platforms

Last year we drove pipeline and revenue in 67 days with SEO for George Coudounaris outranking HubSpot….time to see if we can do it again. Here’s our battle-plan to scale demos from SEO/AEO in record time:

BACKGROUND.

We worked together a year back and outranked Hubspot driving pipeline and revenue in 67 days for ‘demand generation course’ and similar keywords. Now The B2B playbook wanna ramp demos for their core paid media services offerings to B2B SaaS. So we've crafted an aggressive plan to get SEO and LLM visibility and drive inbounds from high-intent dream clients as quick as humanly possible. Lets dive in.


NET NEW CONTENT

Landing pages.

Focused on driving high intent leads from people needing our solutions.
Following problem, agitation solution framework. Plenty of social proof and FAQs to answer real sales call Qs.

- google ads agency for b2b (1.3k searches/mo)
- b2b meta ads agency (10 searches/mo)
- demand generation agency (1.5k searches/mo)

Listicle articles.

These rank super well in classic organic search and get pulled from like crazy in LLMs and AI search to get brand mentions. We include a quick summary + shortlist, larger comparison table above main list, at least 11 options, consistent subsections for each agency section, position us as #1 backed by customer research sharing pricing, differentiator, social proof and where we are a great and poor fit.

- best linkedin ads agencies for b2b (300 searches/mo)
- b2b saas marketing agencies (700 searches/mo)
- best google ads agencies [for b2b] (100 searches/mo)
- best demand generation agencies (350 searches/mo)


UPDATE EXISTING CONTENT

Landing page:
- linkedin ads agency

Turn the social proof under the hero into a slider with multiple images and intro with an H3 like “Real Results from Our LinkedIn Ads Clients.”

Add a customer testimonial block under “What to expect from our LinkedIn Ads Agency.” H2 something like “Hear From Our Clients”

Listicle article: 
- b2b marketing courses

Add shortlist table + adjust the title tag (cut “the ultimate list of” and make it “13+ best…”). Add any other options that make sense. Update last published date (LLMs often pull from fresh, relevant content).


EARN BACKLINKS

DA50+ niche relevant backlinks for:

- b2b linkedIn ads agency 
- linkedIn ads agency for b2b
- linkedin ads
- the b2b playbook linkedin ads agency
- Linkedin ads agency

We'll ramp up external listicle placements and backlinks again next month once all the net new content is written and published.

Follow along as George and I share learnings and results.

I burnt domains and my TAM cold emailing like crazy all to get one client after months of work...until I found a better way to drive demos and build a long-term foundation for pipeline and mindshare:

Lets rewind 2 years ago...

The year is 2024

I grabbed data for Series A and B funded B2B SaaS companies.

Targeted marketing leaders - VP Marketing, CMOs etc.

Built out painfully short email messages focused on real problems from customer research.

For all positive replies, I recorded custom Loom videos reviewing their SEO and sharing reccos.

And from months of work, I got one single recurring client.

Then, the domains burned out and we had to close the whole channel down.

___

The avg cold email reply rate is 3.43% (instantly 2026 report). 

Which is why at Breaking B2B us and many SaaS marketing teams go big on SEO/AEO and evergreen organic content. Here’s why:

It builds on itself over time.

Think about when you search something on YouTube.

You often see videos that are weeks, months, or even years old still getting views.

SEO works exactly the same way.

Your pages and content can drive prospects and leads not just now, but for years to come.

Each page you publish is an asset you actually own.

It's like building a moat around a castle.

You keep building and building upon that moat.

Eventually you've got a kingdom of pages working 24/7 to drive qualified opps.

If you follow the right strategy when it comes to SEO, you get visitors that are actively searching for your solution, comparing options, frustrated with their current vendor or looking to fix expensive problems.

By the right strategy, I mean focusing on keywords that your dream customers who are in buying mode are searching for right now.

___

Your sales team is way happier working these leads than cold prospects

It's not just about Google anymore.

More and more prospects are using AI tools and LLMs to research vendors and compare options.

If you're creating solid bottom funnel organic content (best in class articles, listicles, landing pages, integration pages etc) and building that SEO moat...

You can show up in AI-generated answers too.

We're actively focusing on this with the companies we work with

Along with getting featured in industry lists around your offer.

The content you're building now isn't just for Google - it's positioning you for where search is going in the future.

It builds trust, brand, and mindshare.

And many folks place more trust in organic results than sponsored listings.

No alternative text description for this image

Breaking B2B went from $50k/mo to $185k/mo last yr. George Coudounaris runs our LinkedIn Ads and most enquiries mention LinkedIn on calls. Here’s exactly what he did (and our plan to hit $400k/mo this year):

BACKGROUND.

With organic reach tanking like crazy I knew LinkedIn ads would be key to keep top of mind for our SEO/AEO services for B2B SaaS marketing leaders and to amplify my organic content. 

Plus, fixing our funnel of SEO/AEO and YouTube traffic who hit our site but didn't convert.

Getting the deadly trio: SEO, YouTube and LinkedIn cookin'


THE STRATEGY.

(1) George made me get brutally clear on ICP 

With a very limited budget to start (1.2k/mo), we weren’t going to rely on LinekdIn’s native filters. We wanted a TIGHT company list that matched his ICP of B2B SaaS companies he serves best. 

So he asked me:
Who are your best clients? 
Who gets the most value?
Which companies do you want more of? 

Turned that into firmographic filters, pulled a list, looked through it manually - so we knew we were getting in front of the right companies from Day 1. 


(2) Thought Leadership Ads became the growth engine

Thought Leadership Ads are winning right now for many b2b orgs with execs already organically posting with a following. Its high engagement rates mean you get better bang for your buck, and is a great place to start.

(my engagement rates are 8-15%) 

But we don’t just boost any content. 

Before we started,
We mapped best performing posts to the 5 Stages of Awareness

• Stages 1-3 → cold audiences
• Stages 3-5 → warm audiences

Then filled any content gaps.

Next step: every post needed a CTA.

Early-stage posts link to helpful resources.
Later-stage posts push toward booking a call.

Result?

Thought Leadership Ads consistently hit engagement rates as high as 15%, which meant Sam was everywhere his buyers looked.

Since then, we’ve layered in:

• Company page ads so Breaking B2B grows beyond my face
• Amplifying clients/partners getting results posting about Breaking B2B

So the brand scales, not just me.


(3) Constant Optimisation of Thought Leadership Ads

Judge the top performing Thought Leadership Ads by looking at:
Engagement rate
Cost per landing page click (a custom metric not available in platform)
New subscribers
High intent pages
Calls booked

And have a tight feedback loop on what’s landing to closed-won. 


(4) Acknowledge the reality of the buying journey 

Most prospects aren’t in-market today. Many have an SEO vendor they’re probably not seeing value from. 

Others are getting their business to the point where they can finally invest in SEO/AEO. 

The ads keep us top of mind. So when they’re ready, they come straight to Breaking B2B.

—

What’s next as we push toward our stretch goal?

• Upload a new company list to double audience size
• Increase spend to scale reach
• Scale top-performing ads into the expanded audience
• Grow company page ads so demand scales beyond me


Follow along as George and I share results!

Here's the 7 top pipeline channels for SaaS marketers & founders....based on 24 months of data and 755 discovery calls:

(755 sales call transcripts analysed across 2 years).


1. Paid Ads (Google + LinkedIn): 28%

Most explicitly stated dominant channel.

Example:
“Word of mouth, referrals, they trust way more…” 

Often described as:

4. SEO/AEO: 14%

Common answers:
- A desired channel

As of December, Google AI Overviews reduce organic click-through rates for position one content by 58% [Ahrefs]. So is this RIP SEO for your B2B/SaaS???

Nah.

But the game has changed.

There are still clicks to be had ranking top of the classic organic blue links.

Many of our clients drive demos daily from bottom funnel, pipeline driving pages here.

BUT.

That's one piece of the puzzle.

Google are making it harder to get the organic click.

With AI overviews and ads above fold before you get to the organic results.

Many prospects start their research and evaluation for new software and solutions in an LLM like ChatGPT, Gemini or Claude.

Then discuss solutions with their team and may eventually google your brand name or head straight to your homepage when ready to speak to sales.

So when they're researching, evaluating and comparing....

You're brand needs to be mentioned consistently. 

In AI overviews and LLMs.

If not, you're giving competitors a free lunch.

And likely missing our one a flow of inbound opportunities you never knew existed.

These platforms want you to stay on in-feed for as long as possible before hitting an external site. 

We're moving more and more into the zero-click and mindshare game for SEO/AEO.

The good news?

At Breaking B2B we work with 36+ active B2B/SaaS orgs and getting consistent brand mentions is really classic pipeline focused SEO plus ecosystem marketing.
