Think about today’s typical consumer vs. the traditional website or funnel. 

​

Today’s consumer is sitting at a red light, standing in line at the grocery store, or in between dullsville meetings and clicks on an ad that takes them to your landing page. 

​

If your funnel:

​

☞ Takes longer than 3 seconds to load over 4g your prospects bounce.

​

☞ Headline fails the 5 second test, your prospects take off..

​

☞ Call to action fails the squint test - Buh bye prospect.

​

☞ Has stock photos -  bored prospects bounce.

​

☞ Compromises trust with half truths - betrayed prospects won't buy.

​

Your could-be-buyers are looking for a reason to bounce, and most funnels give them many.

You've got more than a math problem.

Relying on funnel math to detect leaks is like a plumber punching holes in your wall to find a leak on the 1st floor.

If only a simple calculation was all it took...

01.

Fed up with spaghetti at the wall marketing draining your bank account, I've repackaged high-end consumer driven optimization to make it available to you, a 4-5 figure entrepreneur.

​​

I measure everything  - excluding my Starbucks addiction and including the negative ROI on my husband's golf addiction -  he never listens to me - neither does the cat... and the kids are selective at best. But clients... they adore me. 

​

I’m an overthinking, fly by the seat of my yoga pants contradiction with a case of imposter syndrome driving me to continuously better myself for YOU. I'm so glad someone benefits from my suffering.

​

With 10 years of experience overseeing technical teams for Oracle, Nike and Cole Haan, I’ve leveraged my technical expertise to replace gut driven marketing with consumer driven marketing.

"Sue knows and loves her craft and has over-delivered at every turn. She is careful, thorough, passionate, committed, thoughtful, generous and an overall wonderful human being. She has the unique gift - born out of both her genetic wiring and years of experience - of being able to approach her projects with the mind of a skilled technician and the heart of an inspired artist. I can't imagine my business without her involvement and am delighted to recommend her."

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is required of me? 

Clarity around your definition of success and read access to your ads and landing pages.

​​

2. When will I receive my optimization plan?

Data collection will be set up within one week of receiving necessary access. Depending on how much traffic you're site gets, we'll collect data anywhere from two to four weeks followed by up to 15 days for data analysis to complete your optimization strategy. I also offer an expedited plan that I would be happy to discuss. 

​​

3. Do you offer a guarantee? 

There are far too many variables for me to take full responsibility for the outcome of your entire funnel, I will offer a complementary diagnosis of the weakest performing page if you implement my recommendations within the first 30 days of the delivery date and do not increase conversions.

​

4. I don’t have a funnel. Can you do this for my website? 

Yes. By funnel, I mean any site that takes your visitors down the path of becoming a customer. This can be done with a funnel building platform or a website builder such as Wordpress, WIX or Squarespace. If you’re selling or serving online, you have a funnel.

​

5. Does it matter what platform my website or funnel is hosted on? 

Nope. This approach is platform independent. If speed is a problem, however, I may recommend moving to a different platform.

​

6. Who is this for? 

1. Entrepreneurs with a service or product that has converted a cold, online audience into clients or customers. 

2. Marketing Agencies that want to subcontract out optimization. Please note you are free to reference results of our optimization efforts in case studies with proper credit and linking.

​

8. Who is this NOT for? 

Entrepreneurs who see this as a Hail Mary pass. Finding the leaks is science, fixing the leaks is a mixture of art and science. Optimization is an iterative process requiring commitment and patience, not a get rich quick strategy.

​

9. What happens after I pay? 

I will reach out within 1 business day to schedule our 1st consult.

​

10. What is your refund policy: 

You have up until 1 business day after our on-boarding call to request a full refund minus $50 to partially cover cost of consult.

​

11. I'm not that technical. Can I implement the feedback myself?

Yes. Most of the recommendations are point and click along with modifications to copy. 

​

​

12. Can you implement your recommendations for me?

No. I want you to have full confidence in the fact that I have zero incentive to sell you something you don't need in the optimization strategy I deliver. I can, however, be available to consult with your implementation team. I'm also happy to help you build your implementation team.

​

​

13. I've never heard of you before. How do I know I can trust you?

You're welcome to follow or connect with me on Facebook to get a feel for who I am.

I did everything "right" for this client.  Implemented all the best practices. 

​

Our lead gen ads were exceeding industry benchmarks. The funnel and copy was spot on. We were so excited to launch this bad boy...

​

$3,000 worth of Facebook Ads later and we got 1 sale.  It takes 3 months to crack a new funnel.  I know this. We were just collecting data to perfect this. It's going to be ok, I told myself.

​

It wasn't. 

​

I asked everyone and my mom for advice and got conflicting opinions - "make this bigger, that smaller" - "no the other way around"  and one  "can't you just get a real job, honey".  

​

After going in circles for weeks, I stopped looking outside of myself for the answer.

​

I analyzed dozens of website visit recordings,  heatmaps and reams of consumer behavior research. 

​

Boom! The analysis revealed we were serving the wrong audience.  

​

We were advertising a DIY estate plan to young moms.  Not people with money (PWM). The PWM audience was the parents of these young moms who didn't want to raise their grandchildren if the unthinkable were to happen - these people had money, motivation and the experience to know tomorrow isn't a given, plus a lower cost per click too!

​

Eliminate the guesswork with consumer driven optimization.

​

Sure, you knew it would be hard work, but it would all pay off financially. 

​

The reality is... not quite what you expected, right? You've done better than most, but you're not profiting enough to relax into success.
