Venn's 2-person growth team scales content 5x and grows LLM citations 600% with AirOps

The problem

Venn's two-person growth team competed against Canada's Big 5 banks and venture-backed fintechs with a content agency model that delivered slow output and constant revisions, consuming as much internal time as in-house production, while having no system to track AI search visibility after a full rebrand reset organic traffic to zero.

First attempt

Outsourcing content to agencies failed to free up internal capacity — revisions back and forth consumed the same time as in-house production, and agencies shipped unoptimized content too slowly.

“AirOps citation tracking replaced that guesswork with real data. The platform showed roughly 100% mention rate in business credit cards and flagged invoicing as an uncovered gap.”

“It freed Alex's capacity to build attribution dashboards, run multi-channel experiments, and analyze which content categories were actually driving conversions”
