There’s also a lot about how personal branding can help you find new opportunities, establish yourself, increase credibility, and a lot more.

Blueprint of the Week: Where and How Should I Test to Make the Most Money? Blueprint
Use this blueprint and a solid Test Bandwidth Calculator to easily determine:
— Do you have enough traffic, conversions, and time for proper testing?
— Do you have the ability to go deeper into segments and down-the-funnel metrics?
— Which channel or website pages have the most testing and revenue potential?
— Minimum Detectable Effect, test effects on revenue, and priority based on extracting maximum ROI.
You can use Speero’s Testing Bandwith Calculator to help with the equations, not because we’re promoting it, but because it's centralized and includes all data points we need (like MDE).
Speero Story of the Week: Quiz Customers to Increase Conversions
One of Speero’s clients used a quiz to direct their customers toward the right product for them. Speero was curious… What’s the impact of the quiz on the conversion rate?
The hypo was clear.
“If we invite the visitors to take a Product Selection Quiz, they will perceive that their experience is more personalized, and more transactions will be completed, positively affecting RPU and AOV.”
The result is not as much.
Outcome: Flat
Variation resulted in:
-0.83% in Transactions (22% sig.)
-1.21% in Revenue per user (using Sessions)
-0.37% in AOV
We decided to iterate on the results and find other ways to personalize the user experience.
