    Vital Metrics for Conversion Rate Optimization, with Courtney Lindau

    Vital Metrics for Conversion Rate Optimization, with Courtney Lindau

    One of the KPIs buyers are looking for when analyzing a business is its conversion rate - the number of users who converted as a percentage of the total number of users that visit your site. A steadily increasing conversion rate can mean that your brand is becoming better known or your messaging is more attractive - and that’s something that’s attractive to the buyer as well.  
    A decreasing conversion rate - unless you’re getting a lot more users to the site - that could indicate something’s wrong.
    So what are the vital metrics we need to analyze to move towards maximizing CRO?
    Courtney Lindau Lee is the Partner and Head of Practice at Nimble Gravity.

    Unrealistic Goals and Unlocked Potential: How Louie Torres Built and Sold Unleashed Consulting

    Unrealistic Goals and Unlocked Potential: How Louie Torres Built and Sold Unleashed Consulting

    Louie Torres is a first-generation American whose family comes from Ecuador. His mom had Louie when she was 18, and he didn't have another sibling until he was 10. So he had a lot of time to himself where he would script up his own movies or set up his Star Wars collection or just dream. And part of that dream was to find a way to make some cash.
    Today we share Louie's story of how he built and sold his digital marketing agency, Unleashed Consulting, after it pivoted twice, and after it nearly all came crashing down just months before he sold it.

    How Cristina Van Osten Revolutionized and Exited the Pigments Industry

    How Cristina Van Osten Revolutionized and Exited the Pigments Industry

    Cristina Van Osten is one of those people where you’re not surprised by her success because she's been making success happen her whole life. Back in her home country of Romania, she decided to sell Avon door to door at 16 years old - and thrived. A couple years later, she started two convenience stores and had a nice exit. After moving to the US at 22, while studying to be a CPA, working full time at a public accounting firm, and being a mom to her young daughter, with all the time on her hands she decided to start a side hustle ecommerce business called Rolio with her brother Radu.
    Not surprisingly, that also went very well for her.
