ROI Growth Agency

GEO agencies · Office in Camberwell VIC

Evidence confidence: Moderate
Our two cents

Best suited to local Melbourne businesses on budgets.

ROI Growth Agency is a Camberwell agency, trading since 2006 by its own account, that offers answer engine optimisation tracked monthly across AI Overviews, People Also Ask and AI citations. It publishes ChatGPT screenshots showing Melbourne real estate clients named first, and SEO packages from $1,500 a month with no lock-in. It suits budget-conscious local businesses. Caveats: a 4.3 Google rating from 45 reviews, and a 'Growth? Guaranteed.' tagline buyers should question.

Worth considering for

  • Publishes a starting price of $1,500 per month with no lock-in contracts [roi.com.au]
  • AEO page maps each workstream to the search and AI surfaces it affects and admits not every activity moves every surface [roi.com.au]
  • Shows ChatGPT answers naming local Melbourne clients first [roi.com.au]

Check before booking

  • Google rating of 4.3 is the lowest among agencies assessed.
  • AI 'results' are screenshots, not measured visibility over time across a defined prompt set.
  • Site-wide 'Growth? Guaranteed.' tagline; no team members named.
  • Not verified: Founding year (ABR entity dates from 2017), Deloitte Fast 50 listing, GEO pricing, Insurance.

How the score adds up.

Method v1 · GEO agencies
Expertise and capability 15 / 25 Long-running agency (since 2006 by its own account) with a clear AEO process mapping work to five surfaces, including AI citations. No named staff or GEO specialists.
Evidence of work 12.5 / 25 Screenshots of named Melbourne clients recommended first by ChatGPT, which is relevant but anecdotal; no measured AI visibility, citation or referral data.
Customer experience 12 / 20 Google 4.3 from 45 reviews (4.0 to 4.4 with 10+). Not GEO-specific.
Transparency 10.5 / 15 Publishes a starting SEO price with no lock-in, a clear AEO process and an office address. No named team, and no GEO-specific price.
Professional standards 7.5 / 15 AEO page hedges sensibly ('as many of these as are realistically winnable'), but the site-wide tagline reads 'Growth? Guaranteed.' Deloitte Fast 50 claim not verified.
