3 Essential (But Often Missed) Elements to Growing Your List

Why do some people with so-so content seem to easily grow their community, while other much better writers seem to struggle to get a few opt-ins? I believe there are three factors that set a growing list apart from a struggling one, and many people either overlook the necessity or are unaware of it. When we talk about list building and growing your audience, two topics always seem to dominate. Those are traffic and conversion. Yes, they are important. If you only focus on those two elements, and ignore these three others, then you are going to be in for a very hard time. What are those elements? Let’s find out … See that photograph …

Taking first steps in online trading

This Post was Originally published at Taking first steps in online trading on Start Investing Money If you’re lucky enough to have generated some spare cash that is sitting in a savings account, you know that the money you have in that account is never going to make a huge difference to your life. The problem is that with the low interest rates available today, your cash has no real chance of growing. Money doesn’t grow on trees. Image by arripay. Many people are realising this, and trying to make wiser use of their savings, and one way that this is possible (though can’t be guaranteed) is through trading …

Why We Should Give in Secret

Giving is giving, right? Not if you’re a Christian. There are ways to give – and God wants us to give – and there are ways we shouldn’t give. One way we shouldn’t is giving publicly. As Christians, we’re told to give in secret. Our mission in life is to glorify God in all that we do – when we give in public that may not be exactly what’s happening. It could be our secular selves rising to the surface. How the World Gives When the secular world gives it’s often with considerable public fanfare, and even trumpeted in the media. The giver is exalted for his generosity, the charity for its …

The positions that dominate the early rounds of the NFL Draft

It’s no secret that NFL teams value some positions over others when it comes to the NFL Draft. As a result, teams are almost certainly reaching for those positions early in the draft. For example, teams consistently draft more quarterbacks, offensive linemen, defensive linemen, and defensive backs in the first round than in the second round, even though there’s no reason to believe there are more top players at those positions than any other. At the same time we see an overabundance of running backs, linebackers, and tight ends in the second round, suggesting teams are getting some first-round talents …

The Best Alternatives to a 401(k)

The well of creativity is barely a trickle at this point. Our muse went to St. Tropez with someone younger and better-looking, and that was months ago. Is she ever coming back? We’ll leave a light on. Spend more time at the gym. Buy more flattering clothes. Vacuum the house once in a while. Damn, it would have been so easy to keep her. Cinderella were right, you don’t know what you got (till it’s gone). So here’s the latest in what’s become a weekly series, our recycled Investopedia pieces. We still write for them, by the way. In fact, here’s our latest, give or take. But here’s a piece from …

Is Your Brand Naked?

Nowadays, everything is in the hands of the customer. Internet marketing has given them the power to control what they want, how they want it, and when they want to have it. In fact, companies have never really been in control of their brands; their customers have always had control. They are the ones who control the advertising

Design your A/B Tests to get consistently better results

Conversion Optimization using A/B testing has become standard practice at virtually every high-traffic online business today. But, not every company is achieving the best results. Most are far from reaching the 8-times ROI that the average WiderFunnel client experiences.So, why do some companies get great A/B test results while others end up disappointed?If your results are disappointing, it may not only be what you are testing – it is definitely how you are testing.  While there are several factors for success, one of the most important to consider is Design of Experiments (DOE). DOE is rooted within statistical theory and defines how experiments …

Building Out a Comprehensive Health Score

Part of the Customer Success Summit On-Demand Series Defining your customer health is one of the first activities that every Customer Success organization must do, but it is also one that is never really complete. Every time a customer churns or renews it can provide you with new data points that can help you refine your health score, but only if you’re listening. Determining the right data for your customer health score and implementing the right technology to collect it is paramount to being successful. Sam Smith, Director of Customer Success at BrightTALK, teamed up with Matt Eastling, Solution Architect at Totango, to talk about how BrightTALK has built out a comprehensive…

Build a Killer Conversion Strategy with Nothing but Time and Empathy

You don’t need to hire an expensive CRO team to do great work. Just be ready to clear your calendar. Conversion rate optimization is about different things to different people. For some, it’s simply about haphazardly changing elements on a page until people click more, and then it’s optimized! High fives all around! You should not listen to those people. If you want to build a real CRO strategy, based on sustainable optimization practices that will help you build a long-term business, ask the real experts. The ones who have staked their reputations and their livelihoods on their CRO knowledge. This past April 9th, those experts came together to create over 24 hours of free programming, and over…

How to Come Up with More Winning Tests Using Data

While testing is a critical part of conversion optimization to make sure we actually made things better and by how much, it’s also the tip of the iceberg of the full CRO picture. Testing tools are affordable (even free), and increasingly easier to use – so pretty much any idiot can set up and run A/B tests. This is not where the difficulty lies. The hard part is testing the right things, and having the right treatment. The success of your testing program is a sum of…
