ChatGPT Ads: one platform included, each extra priced per platform.
Paid and AI ads is a full discipline, and your retainer includes one ad platform, fully managed. Running additional platforms alongside the first adds a management fee from £400 + VAT a month each, with a one-off £400 + VAT onboarding and a three-month minimum. Your media is paid directly to the platform, with no markup on your spend.
| Band | Monthly fee |
|---|---|
| First ad platform | From £400 + VAT/mo |
| Each additional platform | From £400 + VAT/mo |
| One-off onboarding | £400 + VAT |
| Minimum term | Three months, then rolling |
- Management is priced per platform, from £400 + VAT a month each, so you only pay for the platforms you actually run.
- A one-off onboarding fee of £400 + VAT covers the account setup, conversion tracking and the first build.
- No markup on your media: you pay the ad platform directly. Three-month minimum, then it runs month to month on a 30-day cancellation notice.
You get every pound of your ad budget working to what a customer is actually worth, across Search, Shopping and Performance Max, with an experienced hand on the account and no percentage markup on your spend.
You turn Facebook and Instagram into a way to create demand: ad-led campaigns that both find new customers and win back interested ones, measured against the actual profit each sale makes rather than Facebook's flattering idea of who to credit.
You win the marketplace most advertisers ignore: cheaper clicks and an older, wealthier, more business-focused audience on Bing, run to the same focus on real profit as the rest of your spend.
BrisTechTonic is a Bristol SEO agency offering chatgpt ads that gets UK businesses found on Google, the local map pack and the AI assistants they now ask, like ChatGPT and Perplexity. ChatGPT is becoming a place people research and buy, and OpenAI has begun putting advertising and sponsored answers inside it. It is still new and changing, so the work has two sides: getting your brand, your online profile and your content into the shape ChatGPT trusts and shows, and then managing paid placements as OpenAI opens them up. We position you to move first, honestly, without overpromising a platform that is still taking shape.
How do we do ChatGPT Ads? Six things, in this order.
Map where buyers already ask
The questions your customers put to ChatGPT before they buy, so any spend follows real interest rather than novelty.
Get the brand AI-ready
The online profile, the behind-the-scenes details, and the About and credibility signals ChatGPT uses to decide who is worth showing, whether paid or not.
Build content it can quote
Clear, well-backed content that answers questions, earns you a mention now, and makes you an obvious fit when ad slots open.
Prepare the paid play
The account, ads and offer ready to go the moment ChatGPT advertising opens to you, rather than scrambling later.
Launch and learn
Run placements as they open, small and measured, and see what actually brings enquiries in a space with no set rules yet.
Report honestly
Clear on what is working, what is still experimental, and where the spend is genuinely earning its place.
Buying intent is up for auction. Paid puts you at the front of it.
These are industry figures, not our own results, and we do not invent numbers. They show why intent-led paid can pay for itself where broad awareness spend does not. We manage to contribution margin, and no return is ever guaranteed.

How do we measure ChatGPT Ads? The same numbers, the same way, every month.
Fixed at the start of the engagement so the reporting cannot be reshaped later to flatter the result. Whether they moved or not, they are in the report.
Share of AI answers you appear in
How often ChatGPT shows you for the questions that matter, tracked over time.
Enquiries from AI
Enquiries that started in ChatGPT or another assistant, matched up as best the tools allow.
Readiness score
How complete your online profile, content and behind-the-scenes details are for being shown.
Cost per enquiry, where paid is live
What an enquiry costs once placements are running, judged the same way as every other type of advertising.
Real people doing the work, and putting their name to it.

A clean handover
We map the work across, set a plain-English baseline in the first few weeks, and carry on from there. No starting from zero, no quiet ranking gap.
Three-month minimum, then rolling monthly on 30 days’ notice. No long lock-in, no exit fees.
What do clients ask us about ChatGPT Ads?
Can you actually buy ads in ChatGPT today?
It is early. OpenAI has begun putting advertising and sponsored placements in ChatGPT, but it is not yet an open, ready-to-use platform for every business. We are honest about that: most of the value right now is getting you ready and being first to move, then running paid placements as they become available to you.
Is this the same as AEO?
They are related but different. AEO (answer engine optimisation) is the free side, earning a mention in ChatGPT's answers. ChatGPT Ads is the paid side, sponsored placements as they roll out. The preparation work overlaps, which is why we do them together.
How much does it cost?
The management runs as a clear monthly plan like the rest of our paid work. Media costs for ChatGPT placements are still emerging and vary, so we will not quote a made-up figure. We start with readiness, which pays off whether or not you spend on placements.
Why bother before it is mature?
Because the brands ChatGPT can already read clearly, and already sees as the obvious answer, are the ones it shows first when ad and recommendation slots open. Getting ready now is cheap; catching up later is not.
Will you overpromise results?
No. This is a new channel with no established playbook. We tell you plainly what is proven, what is experimental, and where your money is genuinely earning its place.
What clients say about working with us.
“The guys at BrisTechTonic are great - friendly and always helpful. I would highly recommend!”
“I've had the pleasure of working with Chris on several SEO projects for my websites in the health field. He was definitely been able to demystify things so that I felt able to make decisions with him and feel confident they were the right ones. For a non-techie, that is worth gold! I look forward to working with Chris again and warmly recommend him to anyone who - like me - is unsure about all things SEO.”
“I was recommended by my branding partner to use Chris and his team last year. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They are very responsive , easy to communicate with and great at translating techy stuff when needed. They are now an essential part of my business model”
Real people on your account, not a faceless agency.
You work directly with the senior people who do the work, a small Bristol team you will actually get to know, not a call centre or an account manager relaying messages.
