Some of the main techniques discussed for growth hacking include measuring customer happiness and feedback through tools like Qualaroo and Promoter.io, creating targeted landing pages, optimizing calls-to-action and testing different sharing options.

Two tools mentioned for measuring customer happiness and feedback are Gualaroo and Promoter.io, which can be used to calculate a Net Promoter Score. Qualaroo can also be used to discover signup hesitations and what information may be missing from the site.

Recommendations for landing pages include creating multiple targeted pages, sending paid ads to landing pages rather than the homepage, removing distracting links, and testing headlines and images through paid ads. Companies with 10 or more landing pages were reported to get 55% more signups.

Each page should be 90% unique.

• Use different offers


• Target different customer segments
• Highlight different unique selling points.

Pro Tip: Send paid ads to targeted landing pages, NOT


YOUR HOMEPAGE.
3 USE PAID ADS TO TEST
HEADLINES & IMAGES

There are two problems with testing landing pages:

THERE ARE TWO PROBLEMS


1. They may not get enough traffic
2. There are too many things to test

WITH TESTING LANDING PAGES

What’s the difference?


Most paid ads have all the key elements of a landing page. Using pad ads for testing saves
time and money.

Pro Tip: Use ad targeting to test your audience.


4 SET UP REDIRECTS FOR
LINK-TRACKING

You can use these during talks, in podcast ads, on flyers, and in person.

Use bit.ly if you don’t want to build your own.

Learn what information is missing on your site, or customer intentions.

This is how you will come up with ideas to test.

You give them emails, you get back info about those people.
8 SPLIT THE ASK

If you ask is too high up front, you’re alienating potential users.

Why does this work?


• You lower your activation risk at each point.
• It simplifies your ask and allows you to test more.

“Email doesn’t work for my business”. You’re wrong... just get creative.
9 TEST WEIRD CTA COPY

SOME CASE STUDIES SHOW THAT NON-STANDARD


CTAS CONVERT

"LEARN MORE" AND "SIGN UP" BUTTONS.

Just be weirder, for that matter.


10 USE A CONTRASTING
COLOR FOR YOUR CTA
11 PUT YOUR CTA ON
THE RIGHT TRACK

People read from left to right in an F pattern.

12 REPEAT YOUR CTA ABOVE

13 ADD REASSURANCE COPY
14 VALIDATE YOUR

Inline validation boosts


form completion rates.

And none of them work.

HERE’S HOW WE DEAL WITH THIS:


So now you feel defeated.

Here’s how we deal with this:


16 USE EXIT INTENT POPUPS
17 ADD BONUSES TO
YOUR OFFERING

A product + bonus has a higher perceived value than the same two
products bundled together.

People prefer this:

$1 FREE!

To this:

$1

What are you giving people for free?


18 UPSELL & DOWNSELL

When someone is ready to buy item X,


they’re much more likely to buy item Y.
19 END YOUR PRICES
IN 7 OR 9
20 SHOW PROGRESS
DURING CHECKOUT

Use a progress bar for


multi-step funnels and
forms.

Pro Tip: Don’t start at 0.


21 ADD LIVE CHAT SUPPORT
DURING CHECKOUT

For expensive or complex products, live chat can mean the difference
between a sale and an abandoned cart.

Read the chat transcripts to discover objections that you can address earlier in the funnel.
