This experiment was technically a larger multi-change one that ran on product detail pages. The control showed an automatically applied coupon (for people opening up targeted emails with the discount). The variation attempted to make this better with the following changes:

1. The discount message shifted closer towards the price / product selection (above the buy box)
2. Removal of sale discount amounts and messages tied to longer durations (6 and 12 month duration)
3. Reinforcing that the actual discount will be calculated further on checkout

In this experiment, a section dedicated to choosing gift messages was taken out and separated into its own individial step. The change happened on the first step of a checkout flow and increased the flow by an additional step. Impact on checkouts and total sales was measured.

In this experiment, the size of a saving amount badge was enlarged. Instead of typical badge, the variation stretched the height of the saving information to the full height of the duration selector. The font size was also increased. Impact on overall sales was measured.

In this experiment, selling points and benefits of a subscription were placed as bullets at the top of a checkout page. The benefits highlighted things such as: unlimited applications, access to vetted jobs and the ability to cancel anytime. Impact on sales was measured.

In this experiment, the choice of adding a product to cart was confirmed with a further positive message in the header of the next step (on the add to cart page). Once users left the product detail page, instead of simply stating the product name, the title was rephrased as "Product [X] Makes a Great Gift. They'll Love It!". I view this as a higher "intensity" experiment, given that the add-to-cart page was in some way already confirming the choice. Impact on sales was measured.

In this homepage experiment a number of changes were introduced - with perhaps the most prominent one being the replacement of a video component with customer review badges. Additional copy changes included reinforcement of the latest version number (v11) throughout the page, as well as a dedicated (v11) section in the middle of the page. Impact on demo signups was measured.

In this experiment, an FAQ section was added near the bottom of a long product page. The reviews were collapsed by default, but expandable upon clicking. Impact on adds-to-cart and sales was measured.

In this experiment, copy was added which showed the number of experts (in a given category) a person may gain access to after filling out a lead form. The context of this is a lead-gen landing page where people are seeking experts for legal purposes. Impact on initial progression (of a multi step form) and completed leads was measured.

In this experiment, standard $ signs and cents were formatted into a smaller superscript. Impact on add-to-cart and sales was measured.

Also keep in mind that signup starts were also triggered throughout multiple CTAs throughout the page and from particular job detail pages. The a/b test ran on a listing page of Backstage - a casting call job site. Impact on signups  and checkouts was measured.

In this experiment, a cancelation guarantee was added believing it would make users feel safer while canceling their contracts with Volders (the paid service being offered). The variation appended a Guarantee in the headline as a hyperlink with an explanatory tooltip shown on hover. This variation change was added to multiple screens throughout the checkout flow (a 5 step process).

In this experiment, the footer was simplified with multiple elements being removed (catalog request, secondary links, and a guarantee). Additionally, a more prominent phone number was also displayed.

In this experiment, a product comparison table was added in the middle of a product detail page. The comparison table contained products from the same class or family of products. Clicking on the photo thumbnails also allowed customers to visit the specific detail page. Impact on adds to cart and transactions was measured.

In this experiment, an additional call to action (Whatsapp link) was added on a listing page of one of Brazil's largest real estate sites.In the variation the 3 calls to action include: a link that launched the phone interaction, a general contact lead form, and finally the Whatsapp link (added in the variant).  Impact on total lead starts and completions was measured.

In this experiment, an additional purchase trigger was added - the ability to start by chosing a gift announcement option. In the control, this same question was asked further in the purchase funnel (after adding to cart). In the variation, this question was surfaced earlier as an alternative way of starting the purchase. Impact on total sales was measured.
