Description:

Landing page optimization and conversion rate improvements are no longer simply buzzwords. The rising cost of driving online traffic means marketers are paying more for less return on their ad dollars.

To keep up, online marketers must roll up their sleeves and dive into conversion optimization. Optimizing your landing pages and your website is a proven means of increasing your conversion rates and realizing improved ROI.

The Call to Action Workshop includes the information you need to know to achieve dramatic results from your online efforts. Are you planning for top performance? Are you accurately evaluating that performance? Are you setting the best benchmarks for measuring success? How well are you communicating your value proposition? Are you structured for change? Can you achieve the momentum you need to get the results you want? If you have the desire and commitment to create phenomenal online results, then this training will be your own Call to Action. This workshop will demonstrate how these skills are essential for building a user-friendly, search-friendly, and persuasive site that converts visitors into buyers.
Who should attend?

Everyone from beginner to experienced optimizer will benefit from this training.
