How Agentic Selling Works
Agentic selling is a four-step process: audit your current AI visibility, structure your business for AI, deploy agents, and get recommended. Here is how each step works in practice.
Run an AI Visibility Audit
Before deploying agents, you need to understand how visible your business currently is to AI platforms. An AI Visibility Audit scores your business across the key signals AI platforms use to decide what to recommend — structured data, schema markup, llms.txt, AI plugin manifest, discovery pages, sitemap, robots.txt, and HTTPS. Most businesses score between 20–60 out of 100 before any optimisation.
Structure your business for AI
AI platforms do not recommend businesses they cannot parse with confidence. This step involves creating the machine-readable signals that establish your business as a credible, recommendable entity: JSON-LD structured data, FAQPage schema, a formatted llms.txt file, an AI plugin manifest at /.well-known/ai-plugin.json, dedicated discovery pages, and a clean XML sitemap. These signals tell AI platforms who you are, what you do, and why you should be recommended.
Deploy your AI agents
Agent Console HQ deploys pre-built or custom AI agents trained on your brand, products, services, and competitive advantages. Agents operate simultaneously across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok — monitoring conversations, positioning your business in relevant recommendation contexts, and ensuring your entity data is current and accurate across all platforms.
Customers arrive pre-qualified
When buyers ask an AI platform for a recommendation in your category — "best accountant in London", "which CRM for a small business", "top estate agent in my area" — your agents ensure your business is the answer. Customers who arrive via AI recommendation are typically further along in their buying decision, more trusting, and more likely to convert than those from cold outreach or paid ads.
The AI visibility signals that matter
AI platforms assess businesses across a consistent set of signals before recommending them. Understanding these signals is the foundation of agentic selling.
