Those of you who live on the Santa Rosa Sound in Mary Esther or in Fort Walton Beach are probably very familiar with this story and may have even been frightened as a child by the prospects of its truth.

Topics Discussed and Key Points: Looking at the science of conversion and not just the art Using behavioral science to understand the thought process of prospects What data we should be looking at that informs strategic conversations with prospects Tools to help track engagement metrics Updating your website and communication tools to adapt to social distancing limitations Designing a website that gradually educates cold prospects to warm them up over time Creating content and designing web pages for different segments Designing your website as a draftsman rather than as an artist Optimizing your website for the mobile experience Episode Summary: In today's episode, Debbie speaks with Brian Massey, Managing Partner at Conversion Sciences, a data-driven conversion optimization agency which seeks to “find those impulses to act that are hidden in your site.” If you are counting on the internet to drive your business, you cannot manage it without having access to behavioral data. Brian says that his role is not just the scientific complement to the art of marketing, but one that allows the marketer to “expand their art to be more creative”. Most businesses today do not need more leads, but more conversion. If they are aware of the data indicating the number of visitors, conversions, and the bounce rate (many companies do not even track these numbers), the first step is to look at the primary call to action that you want a particular page to make. Look at the amount of leads you are driving and how many engagements you are getting. Understanding the data helps you manage your relationship with visitors intelligently. Bounce rate is a great measure of the quality of the traffic on your website. There is a constant tension between getting more traffic and making the landing experiences better, and there is not necessarily a correlation between the two. Troubleshooting the experience to get more conversions requires an analysis of the visitor's behavior as they navigate your site or landing page. Your website should always be updated to adapt to changes in the market. On the most practical level, this means looking at engagement metrics not just to know that data, but to know how to take action based on those changes. Conversion optimization is “an assembling of segments”, starting with the largest segment in the early stages of your business. Personas are a great tool for understanding what those segments are so that you can keep track of the types of visitors on your website. As you scale and become more sophisticated with your site, you can have more offers targeted toward specific segments. In the senior living space, some of those segments could include the adult children, seniors who would rather live in their home, and seniors who prefer a community. You should have a variety of content that caters to these different segments, and have pages on your website specially designed for these different kinds of content. Analytics will show how different segments behave differently on the pages you designed specifically for them. Links: Conversion Strategies

Prof. David Galenson shares fascinating model of two types of artists from his book, Old Masters and Young Geniuses: experimental/old masters and conceptual/young genius. This interview by Bootstrap Art Subgroup Lead Marcy Hoen, expanded into a conversation with Bootstrap Art members Till Richter, Roi James and others. The old dictum "know thyself" starts with the artist understanding whether they are experimental and conceptual. This is especially important for experimentalists, because modern art is dominated by conceptualist. The blessing of being a conceptual artist who is recognized, becomes the curse, because they get identified for that innovation. On the other hand, an experimentalist often has to work in obscurity for long periods of time, before ever achieving. There's a process of actually discovering whether you are one or the other. You might spend a long time trying to be one, like Cézanne. Don't compare yourself to the other. Artists discussed include: Louise Bourgeois, Jackson Pollock, Leonardo Da Vinci (experimental), Vincent van Gogh (conceptual), Paul Cézanne (experimental), Eric Clapton, Paul Signac, Georges Seurat, Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons, Ignazio Jacometti, Frank Lloyd Wright (experimental), Virginia Woolf, (experimental) Pablo Picasso, Jasper Johns (conceptualist), Joseph Heller (conceptualist), Stanley Kubrick (conceptualist), Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Norman Rockwell, Camille Pissaro, Paul Gauguin, Damien Hirst, Matthew Barney, Gerhard Richter, Kehinde Wiley, Anselm Kiefer.

Contrarians. They're trouble. At least they're trouble in structured organizations. They are the "But maybes" in your "Of courses!” They come up with the exceptions to your rules. It's hard for businesses to find a place for contrarians. But, when they do find their place, the results can be incredible. Think Steve Jobs: He was kicked out of the company he founded before returning to it at a desperate hour. In this episode, you’ll hear Tara Hunt, CEO of Truly., and host Brian Massey reminisce about the Cluetrain Manifesto, which was released in 1999. What has the impact been from this document? Did businesses learn the lessons of the Cluetrain Manifesto?  This conversation took so many turns that we split it into two parts.

Conversion rate optimization (CRO) is simply a process for getting more return on your investment in traffic — be that filling out a form, becoming customers, or otherwise. The CRO process involves understanding how users move through your site, what actions they take, and what stops them from completing your goals. When you understand these things, you can apply CRO strategies and tactics to plug leaks and improve your business results.

Some of the greatest baseball players have the highest strikeout rate. Why is this? They tried and went for it. Do you feel like your marketing has become stagnant? Do you need some inspiration to try something new? An Author, Speaker, THE Conversion Scientist, and the Managing Partner of Conversion Sciences, Brian Massey, returns to the Hard Corps Marketing Show to give marketers the encouragement to go forth and test! Test out your crazy idea and see if it makes a difference for your brand! Check it out!   Takeaways: If you keep doing the same thing you are going to get the same results.  Go do an experiment and see if your crazy idea will have an impact on your brand. Focus group data can guide you but it is not reliable to make changes solely from those results. Run a test to get a larger sample size. You do not have to have a PhD or be a scientist to do testing in marketing. Get comfortable with the idea that a lot of experiments will fail. Learn from the failure and work through it. Consider testing causality. For example, are people finding your business from the search bar or are they buyers that know what they want, so they use the search bar and type in exactly that? Have a measurement of your campaigns all the way through to the CRM. This will better assist with understanding what efforts are driving conversion. Aim to optimize your marketing campaigns that are performing. Consider doing a podcast, it builds trust with your audience and it builds relationships with your guests.  Conversational marketing can increase credibility with site visitors and grow lead generation. The best time to ask someone to do something, is right after they have done something. Consider asking your buyers after they have made a purchase, what almost kept you from purchasing today?   Links:  Twitter: https://twitter.com/bmassey LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bmassey/ Intended Consequences: https://conversionsciences.com/cro-podcast/ Conversion Sciences Website: https://conversionsciences.com/    Busted Myths: You should always do the same thing in marketing, if it's not broken, don't fix it. - You can always be optimizing your marketing.

Google alone accounts for nearly half of the external referral traffic—traffic, that is, that comes from platforms, apps, and other outside sources— to news sites. Together with the fact that Facebook referral traffic is on the wane, this means that Google’s search algorithm is now perhaps the most powerful mediator of online attention to the news. Google announced tons of new ad features yesterday - two of the more controversial ones within the SEO community are the discover ads that show up on the Google mobile home page and the gallery ads that make some of the search ads on the search results page massively.

It's time go full throttle into testing as we determine its purpose and intent, discuss how to establish proper testing techniques and focus in on some of the areas where testing is the most important for you and your clients.   Takeaways Testing is the way you collect data and it's easy to spend time testing the wrong things. Make sure it's working for you and giving you the right information. When developing landing pages you've got to let the visitor know you are asking them to do something. This is one great place to start testing. Everyone can come into testing with a bias. It's important to try to eliminate that bias to get more accurate testing results. Bias can change the interpretation of really clear data. Avoid it! Data is reducing the cost to finding the right answers. It's necessary and keeps you from wasting money on things that don't work well. Don't forget five key elements to test: value proposition, layout, credibility and authority, social proofs, trust. Not sure where to begin looking for results? The first place to look is where the data is. Everyone's a scientist. We all do testing every day. It's in our DNA.

Find Out More About Brian Here: Conversion SciencesBrian Massey on LinkedIn@bmassey on TwitterBrian Massey on FacebookYour Customer Creation Equation In This Episode: [01:29] How Brian began in the conversion world. He is a computer programmer by training, but he was drawn to sales. [02:06] He got involved with semiconductor sales after college. He then moved to coding and started his own business in the 90s. [02:33] This was a time when he worked with Internet graphics with a dial-up connection. [02:47] He then started using his own analytics package to help companies build out their lead generation platforms. [03:06] In 2006, Brian saw the Wizard Academy presentation. For him, this put language to conversion optimization. [03:45] With Brian's varied background as a computer programmer, corporate salesperson, corporate marketer, and entrepreneur, he knew being a conversion scientist was right for him. [04:07] Why Brian wears the lab coat? He has always been a science geek and loved Bill Nye the Science Guy. [04:40] He wanted to introduce some kitsch and some camp. Introducing science into his work added fun.   [05:27] How we need to stand out and be remarkable in the real world and the online world.work makes it fun. [05:54] The worst mistake happening these days with conversion optimization. Moore's law of doubling transistors every year. We have amazing tools from the cloud to mobile. It's easier now than ever to test. [07:50] When data was hard to collect in was expensive. Then assumptions had to be made. [08:20] Now data can be discovered for A/B testing to usability. [08:48] People who are still using the old “Mad Men” design process are in trouble. [09:35] How agencies have the option of creating data based designs based on real user based data and tool sets. [10:11] A well executed strategy for using your data. [10:35] A Landing page example. The page needs to keep the promise that was made and get the visitor to do something. [11:24] At the beginning, we might take a guess. Then we can look at popular email subject lines, PPC ads, and data that has been converting. [12:39] Also check out mobile visitors click to call. [12:50] The copywriter needs to understand the visitors and build the personas and get the message right. [13:08] Run your images and headlines through something like Usabilityhub. [14:23] Use eye tracking studies like Sticky.ai to make sure that your users are actually looking at what you want them to look at. [15:06] You can also use heat map reports and watch session recordings. Also run analytics and implement A/B traffic testing. [16:01] Brian uses these interim tools because they have six months to deliver. They do free unlimited user testing. [16:51] At first, look at other sources of data that aren't part of the landing page. Then move on to monitoring data on the landing page. [17:02] Usability tools like Helio are great for mockups. [17:14] You can do a five-minute test, a quick test, or a question test. These services provide the panels. It's not as good as A/B testing, but it will provide data. [18:42] UserTesting.com is also an amazing tool. [19:20] Once you have your first idea then you can turn to Crazy Egg for heat map reports or inspectlet for session recordings or even Hotjar. [19:55] Run Adobe Analytics or Google Analytics underneath the site. [19:58] Then you can pick up Visual Website Optimizer or Optimizely or Omniconvert or convert.com or Google Optimize. [20:31] Sticky.ai uses the camera to see how people are interacting with your web pages. [22:29] With modern tools you can see what information spikes when people are watching your video. This gives you cues as to whether you should place the information on the top or not. [23:22] Facebook can also bring people to ads that are very much like your prospects and customers. You can also see which images and words get clicked through the most. [24:08] This data can eliminate poor options. [26:03] Optimizing a website and mobile versus desktop. Get data from a landing page, and if it's not performing well, check to see if people can see the call to action. You can use something like Hotjar to find out when people are scrolling off of the page. [27:23] You can check the pricing page with a heat map from Crazy Ggg.This tells you where people click and where their mouse is moved. This will show you what features they are interested in and where you should put them on the page. [28:25] Narrowing it down to the ideas that are most likely to move the needle. Real traffic A/B testing is best for this. [28:53] Now put the test on Usabilityhub. [29:30] Once you have an idea of the data then you can have the designer create a page. Once again, it's time for further testing. [30:01] It's an iterative process that expands the testing and development cycle. [30:31] Being underwater is the part of the page that is actually not being seen. [32:53] Visual Website Optimizer and Optimizely we are the most common tools that Brian uses. He also uses Sentient for AI. [35:44] Creating an A/B test for a submit button on a lead generation page. Testing images, headlines, and buttons. Address the different kinds of visitors that will visit the page. Action oriented or methodical. [37:51] Are any of these words being tested in ads? Narrow it down to four different words. Then open a tool like Visual Optimizer. [38:56] The test needs to run to statistical significance. Turn off loser tests. [40:02] Testing to statistical significance. Configure the tool correctly using a statistical significance calculator. The transactions determine significance. [42:28] Surprising tests that Brian has discovered. Carousels work against conversions. They tested a client requested carousel and it had over a 30% lift. [43:53] Beautiful pages don't always win against ugly. [44:48] Digital marketers need to use these tools. You can't guess your way to user data anymore. [47:55] Best takeaways from the course. Setting up the digital lab. Choosing tools and free plugins. How the design process has changed and understanding analytics. User testing. Landing page best practices. Choosing copy ,headlines, and images through to A/B testing. [49:34] You can be a scientist and earn your lab coat. It will fundamentally change your success as a digital marketer.

Brian Massey’s conversion optimization mistakes: We-we-ing: abuse of “us,” “we,” “your company name.” Sell an offer to the customer, use “you.” CTAs need to stand out. Don’t let your designer blend it into the corporate color scheme! Conversion optimization best practices to rethink (they may not be as effective as you think): Be ready for ugly to win.
