Hi there! We run a custom developed web app. Does anyone have experience with user tours / interactive walkthrough? Is there a benefit / what tool would you pick as leading in this sector? Thank you for support!

Will be joining Lidia's prospecting hour today at 2pm. Open to everyone, lots to talk about! vibehut.io/rooms/63077a5600550400164284a0

So I am putting an A/B ad test together on FB. I am selling an MRR product for $59 for managed beehives. Now I know this is a bit of a loaded question, but who has experience including prices in the ad copy vs not, and what are the pros and cons of doing such? I am starting with pricing in the ad images to keep my conversions higher. Thoughts?

A bit of a general question - but how has your startup moved into outbound customer acquisition? We have fairly steady pipelines for SEO/content marketing, design, and development, but have struggled to take the next step into outbound lead generation. What are some of the most successful strategies y’all have used, and how did you find them? For reference, we’re a SaaS startup entering the visual collaboration/online whiteboard space (frescopad.com)

I have created a little game called scribi ( currently just available for iOS) https://scribi.web.app My question would be how would you make it grow? Any ideas on what to implement so that maybe players invite their friends?

What kind of TLDs do you all use (.com, .org etc) for products/projects/startups? I just bought one called unfoc.us which is a "cute" tld but I'm not sure if it's exactly good for users because it's too niche in a way. So I got unfocus.app as well since it's, well, an app, just in case, but I'm wondering whether I'm right that users will think the pun-like unfoc.us is too niche for them to take seriously. Leaning towards just using the .us as a redirect to the .app

I am launching a new service, and would like your help deciding which landing page to go for: A or B?

<!channel> What would you ask Rand Fishkin? You can ask him anything. Everything from the future of SEO to why he likes t-shirts so much.

He'll be our guest and answer questions in the #Ask-a-growth-question channel on 8th November at 9PM CET. That's 7PM GMT time, 3PM EST time and 12PM PT time. How do you ask Rand a question? Simple: a) Be there in the right place at the right time b) Just reply to this Slack thread with your question and I'll ask it for you.

Hey ya'll, got a funnel question. I'm just getting started with setting up a funnel to collect email addresses and generate leads. Plan is to drive traffic to a landing page and follow up with an email series. Then I'll measure the engagement of the emails and the landing page to measure the success of the funnel. I've heard that setting goals for how many engaged leads I want is a key part of this. Thing is, I'm not quite sure what a suitable goal would be. I.e. how many engaged leads is a good number. If anyone is familiar with this, how would you choose an appropriate goal? We haven't actually launched yet so we're aren't crystal clear on what the value of a lead is yet, or customer lifetime value. Anyone got any tricks?

hey growth wiz 👋🏽 quick one - my company is planning to send two types of campaigns. 1. marketing campaigns w/ html designs. (for people who didn't signed-up for it) 2. cold-email campaigns w/ pure text and personalization. I'm not confident about sending html marketing campaigns as they didn't signed-up for it. Also not sure if it breaks any law (USA). your feedback?

Linkedin ads: Phishing. Do not use an ad to promote a website that tricks a user into providing personal or other information. This is one of the latest updates on linkedin ads, does this include running a gated content on Linkedin? We are launching a research paper and we want to use Linkedin ads, to bring traffic to the landing page which requires name, email, job title and company.

How do you write content that automatically ranks on google without a single backlink? (the exact strategy I have used for Clienty, Clientvenue and Canva to rank more than 100 articles in last 2 years). (more in threads)

Does anyone have experience with click fraud software. I am beginning to scale up my google ads and it was suggested to me to use clickcease. I see there are a few good competitors out there. Lunio (ppc protect) clickguard, etc. Any have suggestions. Current monthly clicks are around 10k and spend is 20k. I do plan on scaling this much higher.

How would you grow a U.S. based VA platform like HiByron.com? Feel free to post below or directly reach out to have a chat!

Anyone here have references for a dev team? I can no longer use my old one since I sold my former company. I’m looking for a team with experience in Forex, VPS service providing, and can build a site with a modern tech stack for optimized content for SEL.

Hi everyone! I'm crafting a blog post on how to do better marketing with less staff and a tighter budget — essentially, keeping marketing going during tough times. I'm searching for videos, podcasts, case studies etc., where this topic has been discussed, as I want additional insights. Does anyone know some? Thanks!

Does anyone know a freelancer or agency that specializes in organic social media and community management? The client in particular is in a "health community" niche, think Reddit but people living with chronic diseases. DM me for more info.

A/B Test for our HERO - A or B only difference is the image!

Hey everyone. I need to find a platform to run my marketing campaigns on. Can you suggest a software that you used/tried and it's good. Also, potentially affordable. Not cheap, but you get quality system for reasonable price. Thanks in advance :)

Anyone thought about and launched / syndicated a newsletter on LinkedIn lately? Did you find a best practice / cheat sheet ala Product Hunt run through for it? If so, please share! 👍

Hi group, does anyone have suggestions on how to optimize Chrome Web Store postings? Essentially SEO for extensions? Thanks!

How hot or cold is cold e-mailing - there are people who claim to be wildly successful at it and then there are others who simply think its way too outdated and intrusive. Opinions?

Hey everyone, What do you think of having a free plan on the launch, even if you only have a few beta testers?

Hi everyone. I'm not sure if this is specifically a growth question, but in some ways it it 🙂 I've recently joined a team that's planning to build a biotech manufacturing plant in Slovenia, the EU and has €20m pledged and are looking for another €30-35m investment. Anyone here knows an investor, fund, accelerator or VC that could help? I can share the high-level project overview in a DM and talk more

Almost all SaaS founders I talk to have their content marketing strategy poorly planned, and execution is even worse. Most of them would hire a small team or an agency and have 0 signups even after months of investments. Reason: They follow a traditional SEO strategy. SaaS Content marketing strategy differs (or should) from a typical content marketing strategy. Unlike traditional SEO strategy, which is focused on optimizing websites for organic search traffic, SaaS SEO is all about driving signups and, thus, revenue. There are several reasons why SaaS SEO is different from traditional SEO strategy. 1) SaaS products are typically subscription-based, meaning they must constantly be marketed and promoted to drive new sign-ups. 2) Additionally, SaaS products are often complex, with various features and pricing plans that can confuse potential customers. This means that SaaS SEO needs to be laser-focused on creating clear and concise content that highlights the key features, benefits, and pricing of the product. 3) We use the term “purchase intent” only in SaaS keyword research. These keywords being bottom of the funnel, cater to the searchers who are ready to purchase. They want to buy a product in your niche or consider your competitor, or simply try to solve a big problem that you solve. Let’s say you are an email marketing product. The target keywords would be something like “best email marketing software” or “best mailing list software.” 4) The product features have to be explained well in long-form articles. 5) SaaS products are complex. Hence more education is needed. This means creating eBooks, whitepapers, and tutorials. The long-form content needs to discuss pain points in detail and elaborate on how you solve them. I like doing lots of video tutorials inside the blogs and also screenshots of product in action. 6) Creating content that explains how to use your product for the best results. For example, how do you send 100s of cold emails using your tool? Another example - how do you manage multiple clients in a project management tool. 7) Create content about your industry and where you stand in it. Also, this includes creating your page vs. your competitors. Be very graphic in these pages like quadrants, and comparing features and pricing and your USP. 8 ) Churn is a reality in SaaS business, so we need to write many customer support articles to retain current customers. Finding the keywords around customer support can be a bit of a challenge, but once done correctly, they can also bring in lot of organic search traffic (new customers) as well satisfy current customers' questions. At the very least, this will increase retention, if not get new signups. Just look at zoho or zapier customer success articles. They not only rank but also show users how to use their product.
