SumoMe's Smart Bar sits at the top of any page you want it to appear on and can be used for many purposes. From allowing your visitors to join your newsletter to linking them to your site, you can pick exactly what you want to show on your site. A smart bar is much less aggressive and more effective than email capture exit intent or scroll boxes.Example: our blog has a top bar that directs you to our homepage with a single click.

Try testing the most prominent line of copy used on your landing page. As the first part of your site users see, optimizing this text can have a great impact on your conversion rate.

Displaying the unique selling points of your offering above the fold can increase activation. Often times the hero copy, in size 30pt font or larger works best. This allows users to quickly determine whether the product is relevant to them before they waste any more time on your site. Alternatively they would typically get confused and leave anyway.

Provide an email course on a relevant topic over a series of days. Include high quality content each day in separate lessons, teaching best practices and imparting expertise while building interest for your product. At the end, add an upsell for your product to sell to a qualified audience of readers who went through the course.

Your landing page offer should be appealing to your visitors. If the benefits of your product or service isn't totally clear, try adding explaining the outcomes or results customers should expect.

Test incorporating a book now link on a retargeting campaign or on your website. Sending a visitor straight to your calendar can help boost conversion rate and let you get them directly to a booked meeting rather than force them through an email autoresponder drip series.

Multiple call to action buttons can confuse visitors. Try reducing the number of CTAs on any given page to drive visitors to the most important one. If your landing page is meant to drive registrations to your app, including a CTA for your newsletter alongside your registration buttons will serve to divert visitor attention away from your primary CTA.

Increase conversion rate by sending traffic to a specific landing page that matches the ad messaging/creative. There are very few instances when you should send someone to your homepage, generally you want people to take an action and homepages are full of distractions, AND they have too many variables that won't match your ad copy/creative. Best practice is always to match the ads messaging/creative with the landing pages messaging/creative: this increases the relevancy and the quality score of the ad, which often increases CVR while decreasing CPC. Win-win!

Place your call to action form or button on the right side of your landing page to increase activation. Focusing on the right side of your landing page rather than the center, especially when the form remains visible while scrolling down the page, keeps registration forms and CTA buttons above the fold and easily accessible for visitors. This reduces friction between reading your marketing copy and signing up for a demo or free account.

Many landing pages have a hero image as a background as this can be a nice way to set the scene for explaining what your product does. A/B testing this image can have a very large effect on conversion rate.

Increase conversion rate on landing page with a better, more visual hero image as part of your landing page design. Pick an image that catches visitors' eyes without distracting from or clashing with your CTA/landing page copy. Use the image as a framing and focus device for your CTA to get users engaged and increase conversion.

Try showing a popup on exit or after a specific amount of time on page to get emails. If your blog or website is getting a lot of visitors, but not generating a lot of emails, you should offer readers the opportunity to engage more fully with your content before they leave the page. A Wordstream case study showed that using an exit popup reduced bounce rate by over 60% and increased time on page by over 50%. SumoMe has a great tool that makes building your exit popup easy.

Showing a large, minimalist call to action on arrival using welcome mat can yield large activation rates. In some cases we've seen 10%-30% conversion rates to email signup! Be sure to test different variations of design and copy as it can make a big difference to performance. If you find this too intrusive for the first visit, it can still be very effective if shown on visit 2 or on the 2nd page visited.

https://sumome.com/stories/welcome-mat

Removing unnecessary steps from registration can improve signup rate. Asking a user for their last name may not necessary to register, so leave it until the onboarding phase post-registration. Remove any steps that might slow down a person’s registration process and gather the information for fields you’ve removed after they’ve already signed up for an account.

Add an email capture box that appears on scroll. Maybe you don’t want to flash an email signup form right in your visitors faces immediately as they view your page. A kinder, gentler option is to have your signup form exist in a box that shows as you scroll down the page-- this way they’ll see it after they’ve finished reading your post or product page. Buffer talks about how they doubled their email list using this tactic, and Sumo Me has a great tool for implementing it.

Making the landing page shorter by removing unnecessary elements and keeping as much as possible "above-the-fold" can increase conversion rate. Brevity is less distracting, and therefore leverages impulse behavior.

Try sending traffic to a page where they can download a PDF they may be interested in. This will build your credibility and exemplify authority on a subject. Further, it will enable you to capture email addresses for new visitors who might be interested in your product. It’s an easy way to fill the top of your funnel with qualified leads.

http://unbounce.com/lead-generation/32-lead-generation-tactics/

Offering a piece of content for an email address can improve activation rates. Create a PDF or eBook out of some longform piece of content you have on your blog, or write a whitepaper or special piece of content specifically for the offer. Then, gate it behind an email capture form to get visitors interested enough to want to give you their emails or register for an account to get it.

Adding a phone number to a signup page can improve conversion over just asking for email. This works in our experience because people are much more likely to answer their phone vs opening an email, and are again much more likely to convert after talking on the phone vs clicking from an email. This does however tend to decrease the landing page conversion rate to form submission, because people are less likely to give their number. So make sure you track whether the dip in form submission is worth the higher conversion rate to purchase.

Set up a referral program to get your customers to refer their friends. This referral program can offer a discount or account credit for each friend that signs up, or can give a larger discount such as a free month of service for each milestone of new registrations. The program will give you get access to friends of your current happy customers.

Try placing your call to action on the left side of the landing page to increase activation. This will keep the CTA above the fold for all screen sizes and catch the attention of visitors. It makes the CTA more prominent and easily accessible, potentially resulting in a higher likelihood of conversion.

A longer, more scrollable landing page might end up giving visitors more of a reason to convert. Short landing pages give less information by design, so a longer page will let you better space out and elaborate on your product copy. Test a longer landing page against a shorter one to see which works best.

Using informal, conversational, or friendly language on a popup can be a good way of collecting more email addresses. Informal language lets your popups convey a more exciting message about your product or offering, catching the attention of visitors and driving them to sign up for your email list.

Popup design can make a huge difference in email collection conversion rates. Try changing up your format/design in order to cause an uplift in emails collected.

Changing the body copy of your landing page can help you improve conversion by better targeting your visitors based on their interests, where they came from, and how they respond to different marketing copy. Test different body copy for your landing page, using different terms, formats, length, and amounts to see which approach drives the highest conversion rate. Iterate on your most successful body copy while getting rid of underperforming copy, A/B testing along the way to understand how well your new body copy works compared to old versions.

Rather than the default 'exit intent' popup, you can try showing your email popup at a certain number of seconds after the user hits your site. A time-delay list builder popup is typically shown to many more people than an exit intent popup so it can be a good way to improve number of activations. You should also experiment with how many seconds to wait, as it can make a big difference to activations and the quality of the leads you get.

Sliders might seem fun and interesting, but in reality they can negatively affect conversion and bounce rates. This is because they can dramatically lower page loading time, cause “banner blindness” and push your content below the fold. Beyond these three reasons, they also tend to run poorly on mobile devices. Remove homepage sliders to improve your site performance and bring focus to what is most important for you to display.

When someone signs up for your email list, offering them a discount in your welcome email can inspire them to make a purchase immediately. Offer a % off coupon code for signing up to capture emails and include it in your automated welcome email. This will drive interested customers to return to your site and browse your products, eventually convincing a portion of them to make a purchase with the coupon.

Try testing a stronger call to action within emails to see if you can focus your reader’s attention. Treat the email as a landing page and include an obvious, eye-catching CTA. This can improve click-through rate of your emails and result in higher conversion.

Add a qualifying flow into your lead capture form on your website in order to qualify leads up front.

Combat Negative App Reviews Via App Update (ASO)

Negative reviews can have a large impact on installs, however the reviews are set to the version of the app. So by updating the app to a new version, the negative reviews will no longer appear on page.

Average cart abandonment rate is between 60% and 80%. This is the final step to bring someone from prospective customer to paid customer and so it's important to do anything you can to lower this number. One way to decrease cart abandonment is to remove or condense a step.

When creating sign-up forms, having too many fields can actually decrease sign-up rate. Optimize your forms to only ask for information necessary to the registration process. This decreases the amount of effort and attention a user has to invest into signing up and will result in increased sign-ups and form submissions. Remember that you can also ask for the information in the fields you remove during onboarding or at a later stage in your relationship with that user/client.

Fear of missing out (FOMO) can be a strong driving point to inspire action in an individual. Showing a visitor to your site that they’re missing out on something that everyone else is buying into is an effective way to get them to buy in. Adding a deadline to the sign-up or purchase process is an additional consequence that people will want to avoid by acting. Use tools like Ryan Kulp's Fomo to set up a quick and easy social proof prompt.

Give leads the opportunity to immediately reserve a calendar slot for a sales call. Use the Thanks for Signing Up page or email post-email capture to do so. This removes the steps of opening an email and clicking through to the calendar, thus taking away an opportunity for them to change their minds about the call.

Listing all the tools you integrate or partner with on your site is an easy way to show social proof for your product. If your platform works with major and highly known products, including them in an integrations section on your landing page will help your product gain credibility. Further, showing you’re integrated with major players in the industry helps display the value and ease of use of your product.

Send new leads a customized message series after they sign up for your email list to remind them that they opted in.

When new products or features become available, send updates to users who have previously demonstrated interest in a specific category or product. Segmenting your mailing list by interest categories can increase the relevancy of your email offers. (Hint: send users directly to the product page.)

This tactic is all about experimentation and tracking customer engagement. Try changing the days of the week your automated emails are sent out and test to see if you email list engagement increases. For example, an email sent out on Tuesday may be opened by a greater percentage of your email list on a Thursday. Same email. Different day. Try it out. (Note: do not alter the email content or subject line because that will pollute your data.)

Upgrade emails drive users to switch from free to paid accounts, or from lower-tier to higher-tier accounts. This works via the psychology of loss aversion. Basically, people feel a sense of ownership over something they possess, even if it was given to them for free. People are naturally disinclined to give up something they possess, and will pay to keep it-- and so, upselling on a product they already use can be very effective.

http://upfrontanalytics.com/what-are-examples-of-loss-aversion/,https://customer.io/blog/upgrade-email-templates.html

Increase conversion by sending traffic to a more relevant page. Engagement rises when landing page content more directly matches ad content. A page that’s more personalized for the audience that you’re driving to it is more likely to relate to the call to action and the message you’re trying to convey. Rather than directing to your landing page, for example, link to a contextual page based on the ad copy. I.e. webinar ad leads to webinar signup page.

Landing a potential customer on a "beginner's" guide content piece may be a less forceful but ultimately more profitable way to improve conversion. Instead of visitors navigating your general website, you can require them to go to a beginner's guide landing page to direct them exactly where you want them to go by removing navigation elements

To boost conversion and engagement with users, try adding a login system. It can be social (Facebook, Twitter, Google, LinkedIn, etc…) or email-based. You’ll see an increase in the number of accounts created, especially when you use one-click social registration systems.

Direct attention towards the elements you want your users to focus on. If it’s a “Buy Now” button, you could try a simple move like making the button bigger or altering the color to make it stand out. GoodUI showed evidence existing for a net positive effect from this tactic.

Try showing dominant currency for a region by country TLD (eg. show Euros on example.fr) by default. This small bit of localization makes a big difference when an international audience is interested in your products as it removes currency conversion friction from the process and prevents visitors from thinking you don’t ship to or serve customers in their country.

Engage your audience while they browse the rest of the expansive internet by implementing website push notifications. On websites, users have to opt-in to push notifications. If they "Allow" the notifications they will be added to your subscriber list - which gives you the ability to send them push notifications. Segment your subscriber list and send personalized notifications for greater effectiveness.

https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/getting-started/codelabs/push-notifications/,https://blog.kissmetrics.com/website-push-notifications-for-ecommerce/

Try exposing fields instead of creating extra pages. It can decrease landing page complexity and show the user they only have a little left to do. For example, rather than hiding an email field behind a CTA button, including the field alongside the button can cut out extra steps in the process toward conversion.

Ask your audience a question in your email subject line to get them to act and respond. i.e. " Be honest - how are we doing?" "How can you say 'No' to this face?"

Try testing a more prominent buy button on your product pages. Try a brighter, more catchy color, or try increasing the size of the button. A/B test the new button against your old one to see if the change results in a performance increase.

Keeping focus on a specific area will push more users through the funnel, rather than them getting lost or distracted by other links. Avoid too many distractions in the form of links, large and bold text, and secondary CTAs and instead highlight your primary CTA on your page. Removing these distractions will help visitors focus better on what you actually want them to do - follow your primary CTA to sign up, make a purchase, or register for an account.

Adwords allows you to edit the display url with two /path fields. Using keywords that relate to the adgroup and search intent can increase CTR & quality score.i.e. try.ladder.com/marketing-strategy

If you're offering a $100 discount, try A/B testing with a $200 discount or a $50 discount. You'll learn if a larger offer converts more, OR you might even find that a lower offer converts just as well - allowwing you to save costs.

By making the option you want people to take the default plan, you can encourage the behavior you want users to exhibit, increasing revenue. Studies have shown that people are less likely to opt-in AND less likely to opt-out, thus "presumed-consent" is a more effective way to direct behavior.

Extend a discount or offer to a person visiting your site for the first time to provide the push needed to turn that visitor into a paying customer. This will help form a consumer-friendly first impression of your brand and increase the likelihood that first time visitors return to your site.

Try making your search bar larger and more visible to visitors on your site. This will allow them to more easily get to the page or product they’re searching for. The more prominent a search bar is, the more likely a user will see it as a recommended way to find products.

Too many links that navigate away from your landing page can result in the splitting and distraction of a user’s actions. Try removing most or all outbound links from your landing page to increase conversion by having users focus exclusively on your primary CTA.

Adding a quote or testimonial from a real customer to your landing page is one of the most surefire ways to increase conversion.

Try changing the call to action of the landing page to improve conversion. Test out different colors, button copy, sign-up forms, and placement on the page to see what works best. Using Optimizely or other A/B testing tools, track which CTA approach results in the highest conversion rate for your landing page.

Test a new call to action button color to improve conversions. Many studies have been done on the effects of call to action button color on conversions. And while it is clear that button color plays a significant role, there are many factors that determine which button color works best for your site (psychology, industry, brand colors, etc). Take these factors into consideration and A/B test a few different options to determine the call to action color that maximizes your conversion rate.

Taking a precision approach to targeting your audience can be very rewarding. Sometimes if you’re targeting everyone, you’re targeting no one. With that in mind, one option is to tell your audience exactly who your product is intended for. This can be a risk/reward play: on one hand, you will immediately disqualify a segment of your potential customers, but on the other hand, you might create a more personal connection with customers who do fall into the categories you’ve targeted.

Try offering a discount, free shipping promotion, or free returns to customers who make purchases over a certain price threshold. This encourages them to spend more to get perks and will result in larger purchases more regularly.

If funnel analysis shows that a majority of users are dropping at the checkout stage, a re-design of the UX/UI of the page might be in order. Take into account the important information and how the layout can be re-arranged to promote simplicity and easy conversion. Some places where this can be tested is through CTAs promoting next steps, overhauling form boxes, and minimizing how much information is needed to successfully complete an order.

The success page is not only a great space to show some brand personality, it is also an effective space for generating additional revenue. Users who have happily converted once are more willing to do so again. For example, once a user signs up for the free version of your product ask them if they would like to view the additional features of your paid service. (Note: don't be too overt with the upsell or customers might be turned off by your pushiness.)

Instead of simply providing a price up front, use an anchoring price to make potential customers think that they’re getting a better deal on an item. For example, having a slashed suggested retail price alongside a lower “Current” price can drive visitors to buy while they think that an item is going for a lower than normal price. This can often lead people to pay for a higher priced product.

People are more driven to finish a task as it nears completion. This is known as the Goal Gradient Effect. An example of this working in real-time is a sandwich shop giving away a punch card that offers a free sandwich after your tenth purchase, but with the first two holes punched. People consistently prefer completing eight tasks with two done for them over eight tasks with none done for them. Giving your customers the feeling of making progress will have a positive effect on their experience.

Send an email to users who add a product to their shopping cart, but don’t buy. As per the Baymard Institute, the average cart abandonment rate is 68.63%. That may seem like an extremely high number-- but you can get those users to follow through on the purchasing process. Put simply, follow-up with users who abandon their cart has to be an integral part of marketing strategy, due to how often it occurs.

Don't make the mistake of faking reviews - users typically go to great lengths to validate the reviews are real and will quickly abandon the purchase if that trust is broken.

Try shortening your listings page and focusing it on the products or CTAs you're trying to get your visitors to see. For example, if you have a large banner on your homepage that takes up half a user's screen, try shrinking it down when they go to your listings page. This can help you determine if your page is too long and is costing you conversions. A/B test against your current page design to determine if the shorter page performs better.

oCPM (optimised Cost Per Mille) bidding at Ad Set level on Facebook allows Facebook to optimize the impressions it shows to drive more of the conversions you specify for a fixed budget. This is generally one of the most efficient ways to bid on Facebook, because it allows Facebook to use all of the data points available to the Ads Platform to spend as much money as possible - and Facebook knows you will only continue to spend that money if the results are good.In order for Ad Sets to improve performance Facebook generally recommend that targetable audience size should be > 1 million and the Ad Set should be driving >25 conversions per day. If the audience size is too small it should be increased to allow Facebook to optimize effectively.

Email courses are great for B2B companies that strive to first educate potential customers before making sales. Send out a series of automated emails at constant intervals that build upon each other.

Breaking prices down to a per-unit price can make the product seem a lot less expensive. By doing so, you help customers judge the value and affordability of your product based on how low the per-unit price rather than on the total cost of the product. This is especially useful in situations where you’re selling monthly subscriptions or larger item bundles. Showing customers how much they can save by increasing their up-front purchase is an effective way to increase conversion.
