1. How to Increase Conversion in 2012 - 12/15/2011 - The last 20,000 hours of marketing research distilled into 60 minutes

This Web clinic replay takes the past year in online marketing research and condenses it into four tactics you can take away and apply to your marketing in 2012.

3. Headline Optimization - 06/23/2011 - How testing 10 headlines revealed a 3-letter word that improved conversion more than major changes.

One of the easiest elements to change on a page is the headline. It’s also one of the most important parts of the page to optimize if you’re trying to get a lift in your conversion rate. However, when tasked with writing an engaging headline for a marketing piece, many marketers get it wrong. In this Web clinic, Dr. Flint McGlaughlin speaks to this problem and shows how 6 real-world headlines (submitted by our viewers) could be changed for to increase customer response.



4. Converting Leads to Sales - 04/06/2011 - How one company generated $4.9 million in additional sales pipeline growth in only 8 months

So you’ve just increased the effectiveness of your online lead capture by XX% using optimization strategies you've recently learned… Now what? How do you ensure that this gain is not lost in the sales pipeline? How do you keep the online marketing efforts you invested in to get the lead from being squandered? Many marketers end their optimization efforts on the Web page, not realizing the significant revenue lost by not taking simple steps to optimize a lead before passing it off to Sales.



5. The MarketingExperiments Quarterly Research Journal - 11/08/2010 - The Third Quarter of 2010

Over the past year, the MarketingExperiments labs have conducted more than 200 digital marketing experiments. And while we have many complex heuristics and training courses to assist you in optimizing your entire digital marketing investment, in our July 21 Web clinic, Flint McGlaughlin (the Director of MECLABS Group), and the MarketingExperiments team focused on helping our audience find a few "quick hit" landing page improvements to increase conversion right now.

8. The Compounding ROI of Sequential Conversion Increases - 07/08/2010 - How one company took a small gain and multiplied it tenfold

As a marketer, the impact of a single successful test can be very fulfilling. But how valuable is it to run one triumphant test? Or even several tests that are not connected to each other in any meaningful way?



9. One-to-One Marketing at Four Levels - 06/17/2010 - Strategic ways every marketer can enter into an online conversation with customers

One-to-one marketing, the practice, used to be the status quo. And perhaps in a quaint little town in the south of France, it still happens in the neighborhood bakery. But, today, even relatively small businesses likely have a difficult time making a true connection with returning and prospective customers.

Social media marketing has been a blazingly hot topic for marketers in every industry this year. But since this technology is so new, there is still a daunting knowledge gap.
