THE CHALLENGE

Where MakroPRO Started

Before partnering with CGS Growth, MakroPRO faced critical gaps in AI search visibility that were costing them market share every day.

  • <1%AI Traffic Share

    Zero AI-Driven Revenue

    While competitors captured emerging AI search traffic, MakroPRO had no strategy to appear in AI-generated recommendations.

  • 0AI Mentions

    Invisible to AI Assistants

    MakroPRO was completely absent from ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity responses for wholesale grocery queries in Thailand.

  • 3+Competitors Ahead

    Losing Ground to Rivals

    Competing platforms were already being recommended by AI assistants for wholesale grocery solutions in the Thai market.

  • N/AGEO Strategy

    No GEO/AEO Framework

    Despite being backed by CP Group, MakroPRO lacked any structured data or content optimized for AI crawlers and LLM training.
