Optimise Your Website to Multiply Your Conversion Rates

Course Description

Become a Conversion Rate Specialist

This Conversion Rate Optimisation (CRO) course will transform you into a data-driven conversion rate specialist.

Companies globally are spending almost $626.9 billion in advertising dollars. But many are leaking revenue and wasting money with their advertising/marketing efforts because of poor and inefficient websites.

It doesn’t matter how much ad dollars and promotions you do if your website is underperforming.

To improve website ROI and performance, you’ll need to implement a methodical process called Conversion Rate Optimisation.

It is a process that allows you to optimise your on-site goals by running data-driven experiments to remove friction and increase conversions.

This helps you to increase qualified leads from existing website traffic, improve prospect retention and most importantly, close more sales online.

Sign up for this course if you:

  • Have been studying your analytics reports month after month, but can’t understand why your traffic isn’t converting – Learn how and what to analyse in order to spot and fix any high friction elements
  • Need to optimise your landing page conversions, but are unsure where to begin.
  • Are not getting positive returns for your paid advertising campaigns – Doubling your conversion rates means reducing your ad spend
  • Don’t know how to read your reports nor identify gaps in your conversion funnels – Address these gaps and achieve quick wins to boost your conversions
  • Don’t really understand what your customers really want – Apply consumer psychology principles and see from your customers’ perspective

By the end of this course, you will learn step-by-step how to improve your bottom-line through landing page optimisation, website testing, identifying digital insights and implementing actionable strategies.

This 2-day hands-on course will take you through proven CRO digital tools, case studies, real examples and key consumer psychology concepts behind conversion rate optimisation.
