Video Of The Week
Here’s what you’ll learn:
✅ Why the original design failed to build trust, credibility, or communicate value.
✅ How a simple “trust policy bar” helps cold Meta traffic feel safe buying from you.
✅ The power of elevating your best social proof above the fold.

A/B Test Of The Week

One megamenu test added $42K/month in extra revenue - and $512K per year (forecasted).
Here’s what we changed:
- Added visual icons next to category names like Bags, Straps, and Accessories
- Integrated a Best Sellers section directly into the menu
- Used product images to instantly attract and engage users
No redesign. No pricing change.
Just a more intuitive shopping experience.
The goal?
- Increase Revenue Per Session (RPS)
- Reduce friction in navigation
- Help users find and decide on products faster
We hypothesized that visual cues + surfacing best sellers would make product discovery easier and drive more sales.
The results?
✅ +$42,736 per month
✅ +$512,832 per year (forecasted)
✅ +$0.276 Revenue Per Session (RPS)
Your menu isn’t just for navigation.
It’s a conversion asset.
High Ticket Brands Don’t Convert On Clever Copy. They Convert On Clarity
Pages that reflect real objections.
Offers that feel like decisions, not promotions.
Messaging shaped by sales conversations, not guesswork.
That’s how 8–9 figure teams lift performance.
Not tweaks - alignment.
