As discussed above, a CRO agency is responsible for improving the conversion rate. Typically this may be limited to a website, but some also optimize landing pages, emails, paid ads strategies, and entire customer experiences.  Common conversion rate optimization agency processes includes the following:

1. By employing a variety of research methods including, competitor research, keyword research, data analysis,  user research, heuristics, A/B testing and personalization, CRO teams seek to isolate the conversion limiting attributes.
2. Starts with identifying the strategic objectives/goals and associated questions. These can be increasing revenue, improving experiences, cutting costs, or solving a problem. Then, conduct research to inform and developing a testing plan.
3. Armed with this information, the CRO team sets about crafting a strategic plan and roadmap then builds, tests and analyzes potential solutions to identify the winning solution based on data-driven experimentation. 
4. Without this process, it is impossible for teams to know what will be the winning solution. This scientific approach allows CRO teams to impact the entire user experience throughout each stage of the funnel including the customer journey, content strategy and down to the landing page content and copywriting, layout, calls-to-action, button colors, and even button sizing – making campaigns much more effective.   

Whether you decide to start off from scratch with a CRO agency or incorporate a CRO team into your existing marketing and business operations, investing in conversion rate optimization can produce a higher return than any kind of marketing.  For example, here are just a few reasons you may decide to hire a CRO agency:

• You have low traffic – Potential Solution: A CRO agency like ours can help find and attract the right traffic to your already well converting website.
• You have low conversions – Potential Solution:  A thorough CRO audit to find opportunities to optimize your low-converting website, landing page(s), funnel or marketplace listings. 
• You have low testing velocity – Potential Solution: Due to lack of time, resources, knowledge or motivation, this is where a dedicated CRO agency can certainly pick up the pace.

You may want to consider hiring a CRO agency if you want to:

• Improve Average Order Value (AOV)
• Increase Average Revenue Per User (ARPU)
• Decrease cognitive load and increase traffic, leads or purchases 

Moreover, hiring a CRO agency can get you up to speed faster and more economically than hiring an in-house specialist or team.  Consider these 3 key reasons:

1. Costs associated with hiring an in-house highly skilled equivalent CRO specialist and multiple team members (project manager, strategist) including benefits and other costs are typically high. 
2. In-house hiring process timeframe can be slow to gain alignment on adding additional headcount, budget, office space, benefits allocation, takes time and resources to manage, requires regular and steady flow of work and a long-term commitment.
3. Hiring a CRO agency is typically faster to spin up in-market tests and quicker revenue improving conversions and business costs than hiring an in-house team or developing a CRO program internally from scratch.
