★★☆ How to win the hearts of your new users, Inna Kerzman, retentiondesign.com

retention
Recording: https://slideslive.com/38918906/how-to-win-the-hearts-of-your-new-users

  • Fiverr is task marketplace

  • First time buyer has big churn, but CPA is very high

  • Risk averse buyers. Incoming value threshold too high. Values for money

  • Can't trick people into buying, esp. when you want them to return

  • Inverse pyramid: Acquisition, sign-ups, on-boarding, evaluation -50%, converted user -85%

  • Start designing experience where users start experiencing. Funnel starts earlier than you think

  • On-boarding: get users hooked, continue with small achievable milestones

  • Market results, not process, Eg:

    • "Create beautiful forms" - Google forms
    • "Get better data" - Typeform - doesn't not build forms but gets results
  • Dig into what do successful users do vs unsuccessful

    • Analyze your churn branches
  • Incentivize usage of features. Paid service Notion.com gives back $5 for login on mobile, etc.

  • Paywall after user understands the value of the product

    • eg. Couchsurfing.com free for first 10 contacts

  • Channel grouping Level 0 "CEO level": paid / unpaid Level 1: Level 2: per medium Level 3: per campaign

  • Campaign timeout is complicated

  • Big portion of paid traffic is direct as much as 30%

  • Direct traffic has bigger CR artificially inflating CR of paid channels

    • Not intentional, but Google tries to minimize unknown portion
  • Why attribution "products" rarely work, why build your own solution?

    • Because they are built by people who do maths, not campaigns.
  • Attribution maturity model

    • Find out which phase you are in, set your priorities straight
  • Parameters involved with data-driven attribution modeling

    • Do you have what it takes to create your own session definition?
  • Marketing planning and attribution modeling is all about channel grouping

  • Attribution experiments: reconstructing B2B SaaS conversion paths

    • Secretary finds 10 products, someone else narrows picks, someone else registers trail, someone else makes purchase
  • Attribution vs Causality

    • measure incremental changes, switch off problematic channels and measure incremental losses
