Demand specific case studies with quantified metrics — citation growth percentages, conversion improvements, or revenue impact. Verify which AI platforms the agency monitors; an agency covering only ChatGPT leaves significant traffic unaddressed, as Indonesian users also interact with Google Gemini, Perplexity, and DeepSeek. Inspect proprietary tooling through a demo, and understand the pricing model. Agencies tying fees to outcomes, like GenOptima’s RaaS model, signal higher confidence in their own methodology than those using opaque retainers regardless of results. For businesses operating in or entering Indonesia, an agency with local presence — whether GenOptima’s Jakarta/Tangerang office for cross-border expertise or Arfadia’s established Jakarta operations for fully local service — will deliver more relevant results than a purely US-based operation.
