ChatGPT Ads Agency Ireland

Advertise inside the conversations shaping your customer's next decision

Customers are no longer only searching through Google or scrolling through social media. They are asking ChatGPT what to buy, which service to choose, where to go, who to trust and what option is right for them.

ChatGPT Ads gives businesses a new opportunity to appear during those decision making conversations through clearly labelled sponsored placements.

Brand Depot provides complete ChatGPT Ads management for businesses in Ireland. We research how your customers make decisions, build your campaigns, create your advertising, install conversion tracking and manage performance from one central strategy.

No long contract. Direct senior support. Advertising spend paid directly through your own account.

Advertising transparency

What are ChatGPT Ads?

ChatGPT Ads are paid placements that can appear below a ChatGPT response when an advertiser is relevant to the context of a conversation.

A ChatGPT Ad can include:

  • The advertiser’s name
  • A brand logo
  • An advertising headline
  • Supporting copy
  • An image
  • A website or product landing page

Ads are clearly identified as sponsored and remain separate from the answer generated by ChatGPT. Paying for an advertisement does not allow an advertiser to influence or change ChatGPT’s organic answers.

ChatGPT Ads

From keywords to conversations

Google Ads is primarily built around search activity. Meta Ads is primarily built around audiences, behaviours and content engagement.

ChatGPT Ads introduces another layer: conversational intent.

A person may explain what they need, what they have already considered, their budget, location, preferences and the problem they are trying to solve.

The opportunity is not simply to target a word. It is to understand the situation behind the question and position your business as a relevant next step.

Brand Depot methodology

The Brand Depot Conversation to Conversion Framework

We structure ChatGPT Ads around four stages of customer intent. Each campaign has a clear commercial role, from introducing your business to generating a measurable conversion.

Brand Depot provides the full service, from eligibility assessment and campaign strategy to optimisation and reporting.

The full service includes

  • Advertising eligibility assessment
  • Account setup and verification support
  • Customer intent research
  • Conversational opportunity mapping

  • Conversions API support
  • Product feed integration
  • Campaign monitoring

The objective is not to generate impressions for the sake of visibility.

ChatGPT advertising

Fully managed ChatGPT advertising

We help establish your advertiser account correctly from the beginning.

  • Ads Manager account creation support
  • Business information review
  • Advertiser verification support
  • Billing configuration
  • Team member access
  • Account permissions
  • Conversion data source creation
  • Website and destination checks

The client retains ownership of the advertising account and pays advertising spend directly through their own billing profile.

AI discovery review

ChatGPT visibility audit

Before launching paid advertising, we examine how your business currently appears across ChatGPT and other AI-driven discovery platforms.

  • Whether your business is mentioned
  • How your products or services are described
  • Which competitors appear
  • The sources influencing AI-generated answers
  • Common customer questions
  • Commercial topics relevant to the business
  • Gaps in your current website content
  • Opportunities for paid and organic visibility

This establishes whether the immediate opportunity is paid advertising, organic AI visibility or a combination of both.

Research-led strategy

Conversational intent research

Traditional keyword research is only one part of the process.

Brand Depot identifies the natural questions and situations connected to your customer journey. These may include:

  • Problem based questions
  • Product comparisons
  • Service comparisons
  • Pricing questions
  • Location based needs
  • Urgent service requirements
  • Research before a purchase
  • Recommendations for a particular situation
  • Questions about suitability
  • Questions about quality, trust or experience

We use this research to create a structured conversational intent map for your campaign.

Campaign planning

A clear strategy for every campaign

Every campaign is connected to a clear objective. The right structure depends on your commercial priorities, available data and stage of testing.

Typical campaign objectives

  1. 01 Brand awareness
  2. 02 Website traffic
  3. 03 Product discovery
  4. 04 Lead generation
  5. 05 Consultation bookings
  6. 06 Phone calls
  7. 07 Registrations
  8. 08 Ecommerce sales
  9. 09 Repeat purchases
  10. 010 Market expansion

ChatGPT Ads currently supports CPM, CPC and conversion optimised CPC campaign objectives. Brand Depot selects the most suitable structure based on the campaign goal, available data and stage of testing.

Context strategy

Help OpenAI understand when your business is relevant

Context hints describe the situations, needs and audiences where your offer may be useful. They are not conventional exact match keywords.
  1. What the business offers
  2. Who the offer is for
  3. What problem it solves
  4. When someone may need it
  5. Why it may be relevant
  6. Which use cases belong together
  7. Which intents require separate ad groups

Creative built for the decision

Advertising creative that moves conversations forward

Relevant messaging helps people understand the value of your offer and take the next step with confidence.

Advertising headlines

Supporting descriptions

Calls to action

Static image creative

Product messaging

Service messaging

Trust focused variations

Benefit focused variations

Comparison focused variations

Landing page messaging

ChatGPT Ads landing pages

Landing page optimisation

A relevant advertisement can still fail if the landing page is slow, unclear or difficult to use.

  • Headline relevance
  • Message consistency
  • Page speed
  • Mobile usability
  • Calls to action
  • Trust signals
  • Contact options
  • Product information
  • Forms and checkout
  • Conversion tracking
  • Technical SEO
  • Structured data
  • AI readability

Where required, we can build a dedicated ChatGPT Ads landing page designed around the intent of the campaign.

Measurement and attribution

Conversion tracking and attribution

ChatGPT Ads supports conversion measurement using the OpenAI Pixel and Conversions API.

Brand Depot can configure tracking for actions such as:

  • Product purchases
  • Lead submissions
  • Consultation bookings
  • Registrations
  • Contact form submissions
  • Important website actions

We also use campaign tracking and supporting analytics to help connect ChatGPT Ads with website behaviour, lead quality and revenue.

OpenAI Ads Manager can report metrics including impressions, clicks, spend, click through rate, average CPC, average CPM and conversions when measurement is configured.

AI visibility

ChatGPT ads and organic AI visibility

Paid ChatGPT advertising and organic ChatGPT recommendations are not the same thing.

Paid advertising

A paid advertisement appears separately as a sponsored placement.

Organic recommendations

An organic recommendation is generated from the information and sources available to the AI system. Businesses cannot pay to alter ChatGPT’s organic answers.

Building organic AI visibility

Building organic AI visibility requires a wider strategy involving website authority, clear business information, structured content, trusted citations and consistent external signals.
