So, we’re now getting this

23.
27
The wrong conclusion
“Since there is no fold no
more - I, lazy designer, do
not have to worry about
this scroll stuff anymore.”

24.

Waddabout this?
“We have looked into data
to see if users scroll and
how our design can make
them scroll (if that’s what

The results

35.

The video hero shot sucks because…
1. It distracts from the conversion goal
2.It messes up readability
3. “Text on image” is interpreted as “image”

Get them to use the damn thing
= Activation

You must leave your credit card
details in order to start your 30
day free trial
WHY?
73

69.
Input to the hypothesis
We made a short exit survey.
The main reason stated:
74
“I don’t want to leave my
credit card details for
something that is free”!

70.
Hypothesis:
Give the user “A reason why”
75
We only use this to verify your account, you
won't be charged anything for your trial
We need this just in case you decide to stay
Premium after your free month
We need this because our music deals only
allow free trials for users that are credit card or
PayPal holders
