Highlighting social proof – customer testimonials, reviews and case studies – can positively impact conversion rates.
Conversion rate is one of the most widely used and important KPIs that marketers use across the globe. It can be calculated by dividing the number of sessions with transactions by the total number of sessions. Though conversion rates are essential, businesses should not rely solely on them to analyse the performance of their marketing activities.
Optimising campaigns can help marketers boost conversion rates. Studies show that popups with images convert better than popups without images by 83.57%. To improve conversions, they should also consider adding a countdown timer to popups and adding two input fields instead of three or more input fields.
