They live up to their name
The team are great partners in everything. From the content strategy to their business analysis and integrated RevOps solutions. They are thoughtful in creating full-funnel conversion paths that touch every part of our business and improve our team's overall success rate. They are masters at pivoting when priorities change and finding creative solutions when we throw challenges their way. Working with them has been such a pleasure. My advice to anyone working with Impulse? Be prepared to soak in as much of their knowledge as possible because they will open up new perspectives and unlock new ways to better utilize HubSpot that you wouldn't have thought to before.

Content the agents quote.
Content marketing in 2014 measured rankings and clicks. Content marketing in 2026 measures citations: which agents quote which pieces, against which queries, and whether the citation got the answer right.
We strategize, plan, and produce content for that test. Every piece runs through the CLEAR Framework before publish. Topic clusters mapped to the questions your buyers actually ask the LLMs they're using. Premium content, blog posts, webinars, video — produced as one stack, not as scattered campaigns. More strategic and AEO-native than a generic Copywriting engagement.
The process.

How is this different from Copywriting and Content Marketing?
Copywriting is execution. Content Strategy is the plan that produces the work — including which formats earn citations, which topic clusters compound, and how to sequence the work over a year. Most engagements include both.
Do you produce video and premium content too?
Yes. Blog, premium content, video, podcast, webinars — produced against the same content strategy. Cross-format pieces (a video that becomes a blog post that becomes a sales-enablement deck) are the highest-leverage.
How long until citations show up?
30–90 days from the first published piece. Indexing is slow at the start. Compounding usually starts around month 3.
How do you make sure agents cite this correctly?
Every page we ship gets schema, semantic chunking, and explicit claim-to-source mapping. We run it through CLEAR (our public AEO methodology) before launch. Then we monitor citations across Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews from week one.
What does success look like at 90 days?
A quarter of Voice work gets you a voice system in production, content shipping on a fixed cadence, and one story told the same way on every channel an LLM might scrape. Brand consensus is measured at the start and re-measured at day 90, so the movement shows up on paper, not in vibes.
