Segment had a major problem: Getting their software up and running was a real struggle for users. π©π They dug into the data and found out that even though big names like Nike signed up, they werenβt actually installing the software. π«π
The kicker? Zero percent of their top-value customers were being converted. π±
The game-changer strategy: Segment introduced a simple yet powerful tactic. π§ β¨
Hereβs how it worked:
- On Signup: New users were asked, “Would you like help getting started?” with a simple “Yes” or “No” option. π€π
- If “Yes”: A screen popped up saying, “Thank you, we’re going to reach out to you.” π²π
- Results: A huge 70% of people who clicked “Yes, I want help” ended up making a purchase! π°π
Why does this work? The higher the “Yes, I want help” rate, the bigger the pool of potential buyers. πββοΈπ
How to apply this? Imagine if, right when users clicked “Yes, I want help,” they got personalized support instantly within the app. π€π¬ Or, for big companies, auto-providing personalized support as soon as they sign up with no extra steps. π―π₯
This approach makes the onboarding experience smooth and boosts conversions! π₯
