Adjusting Strategies Based on Data

Chapter 6: Analyzing and Improving Your Performance

10 min read time

"Without data, you're just another person with an opinion." — W. Edwards Deming

Guessing isn't a strategy. Instead, you need to base your decisions on data. 

The best decisions come from data that track your business objectives and update them in real-time.

71% of the companies that saw substantial increases in sales tested their landing pages before making them live. While not every decision can be supported by data, many important decisions can be made. Here A/B testing allows you to:

  • Analyze data: Gather solid evidence on what works and what doesn't. Instead of relying on guesses, you'll see real-time results indicating which options perform better.
  • Identify trends: Regular A/B tests can help you spot patterns in user behavior. For example, you might find that a certain color scheme consistently outperforms others, or that a specific type of headline leads to higher engagement.
  • Make informed adjustments: With data and identified trends, you can confidently adjust your strategies. Whether it's fine-tuning your website layout, improving your product descriptions, or refining your marketing messages, every change is backed by strong evidence.
