bring customers to their site.
But only $1
to convert them.

However, every website has a
CONVERSION problem!

Who Gets To make business decisions?
The Answer
Shouldn’t Surprise You

It’s A Journey, NOT A Destination
Conversion rate is a measure of your ability to persuade visitors to take the action
you want them to take.
It's a reflection of your effectiveness and customer satisfaction. For you to achieve
your goals, visitors must first achieve theirs.
Bryan Eisenberg, ClickZ 2001

Landing Page Optimization!

The Entire Customer Journey!

Google Explains Relevance
"We provide strong SCENT so users don't
lose time," he said. "We take the text
from the page that is relevant to the
query, and include it in the summary…
Advertisers are coming to the
realization that ads must have a scent
that the user will likely find useful."
- Krishna Bharat, senior research
scientist at Google

We End It At the Landing Page

We take those funds that might
otherwise be used to shout
about our service, and put those
funds instead into improving the
service. That's the philosophy
we've taken from the beginning.
If you do build a great
experience, customers tell each
other about that. Word of mouth
is very powerful.

The role of today’s leadership is to “remove the
speed bumps in the experimenters’ way!”
These include:
• Technological
limitations imagined and real
• Legal limitations imagined and
real
• Organizational culture

If you double the number of
experiments you do per year you’re
going to double your inventiveness.

If Amazon was doing over 200 a tests at a given time
since 2004, how many more learnings have they had
than you?
How agile are you?

Because Bing Ads' quality score is established after the fact, it isn't
used directly to determine your bid and your ad rank. We generate
quality score to help advertisers identify improvement opportunities.
Many people think that landing page relevance is between your
keyword and your landing page. It's actually based on the search
query your keywords trigger.
