Speero Story of the week: One Simple CTA — A client offers a 10% discount (and other perks) to those who activate a product subscription. But most customers don’t understand the offer. Read the solution down below.
Blueprint of the Week: Where and how should I test to make the most money?
What’s the ROI of my tests?
How can I show the business value of my program to leadership?
How can I estimate the money that will come from all the Q3 tests?
Based on my website's traffic and conversion numbers, how many experiments can I run at each step of the user journey?
If you ever asked yourself these questions, this is your blueprint.
This blueprint is basically a statistical power analysis that helps you stay humble for WHERE and HOW to test.
Use this blueprint and a test bandwidth calculator to determine whether your website's traffic is fit for A/B testing and whether you have the ability to go deeper into segments and down-the-funnel metrics.
Use Cases:
— Is your website eligible for A/B testing based on its current traffic and conversion volumes?
— Is it feasible to run experiments with smaller impact or should you focus on high-impact experiments higher in the funnel?
