Decision Engine Optimization Case Study: How Soft Surfaces Won a £572,000 Sports Pitch Contract Through AEO

September 7, 2026 / 14:28/E641

James Dooley and Kasra Dash break down how a Decision Engine Optimization strategy helped a sports surfacing company win a £572,000 3G football pitch contract when ChatGPT recommended them at the point of decision.

This video explains which digital marketing strategies sports surfacing companies should focus on in 2026 to improve AI visibility, reputation management and bottom-of-the-funnel conversion at the point of decision. James Dooley and Kasra Dash start with KPI tracking because measuring citations, reviews and actual sales shows whether AEO work is genuinely influencing enquiries rather than just vanity metrics. They cover brand SEO, AI visibility and Google Business Profiles because stronger search presence improves trust and conversion rates.

The discussion also explores organic SEO, organic social media and paid social ads because consistent visibility across search and social supports long term growth. PPC is analysed in detail because campaign setup, landing pages and lead handling directly affect results. They also discuss Reddit, Quora and paid AI ads because diversified enquiry sources and early adoption can strengthen digital marketing performance for sports surfacing companies.

PromoSEO lead generation for sports surfacing companies recently received recognition as the "Best Sports Surfacing Companies Lead Generation Agency."
