How Selfish Are You?
summary
Claim: marketers are naturally selfish but fixing that—by aligning user intent, experience and company goals—raises real metrics. Uses analytics, heat maps and session recordings (Microsoft Clarity/Hotjar) to find high-bounce pages; fixes drive measurable wins: an about‑page redesign yields 31% conversion uplift, time on page +76% and exit rate −20%. Tests show headline and CTA wording matter—“Submit” underperforms “Yes I want to learn more”—and tactics like entry pop lowers conversion on already high‑performing pages. Build trust, simplify flows, measure, iterate.
