About

The specialists you call when a competitor is winning.

Trunkline Digital shows a brand which competitors AI recommends instead of them, then closes that gap across AI search (AEO and GEO), SEO and paid media.

An inquiry
Every route a customer arrives by, joined into one line you can actually measure.

trunk line noun

A trunk line is the main line that smaller routes run into. On a railway or a telephone network, it is the part that carries everything to where it needs to go.

Customers reach a brand along a lot of small routes: a Google search, an ad, a social post, a recommendation from an AI assistant. Trunkline Digital exists to join those routes into one line that ends at the thing that matters to you: a customer who gets in touch. The T in our logo is the trunk line, and the amber square at its foot is the destination.

What we believe04 commitments

Four things we hold to

  • Measure first

    Every piece of work starts with a baseline of where you stand today, so you can see what changed instead of taking our word for it.

  • Your accounts stay yours

    We work inside your own Google Ads, analytics and business profile accounts wherever possible, so the history stays with your business.

  • Honest numbers

    We report what the data shows and say plainly what it cannot show. Nobody can guarantee rankings or a place in an AI answer, and we won't pretend to.

  • Plain English

    Reports and recommendations are written so you can act on them without a glossary.

Is this a fit

Who we work best with

Works best for

  • Marketing leaders at growth-stage and mid-market brands
  • SaaS, B2B services, marketplaces, e-commerce and multi-location brands
  • Agencies of 5 to 100 people adding AI search to their offer

Who we are a poor fit for

  • Anyone who wants a guaranteed number of leads each month. Nobody can promise that.
  • Anyone who wants an agency to take over the accounts and send back a monthly PDF.
  • Anyone who wants posting for its own sake. Social media, like every other service here, is measured against what it brings in.

If you’re not sure which describes you, the Gap Scan is a good way to find out.
