In this experiment, a floating add-to-cart with two product choices (color and size) were added on a product page. This appeared only after scrolling past the existing / embedded product selection buy box.

The floating add-to-cart widget had another layer of complexity in that it allowed customers to make a size and color selection with an expandable fly out. Making a selection would also append the total price to the add-to-cart button label.

Impact on total transactions was measured.

In this experiment, three testimonials were appended at the bottom of landing pages of a contract cancelation service (paid). These testimonials were also shown throughout the complete signup funnel (4 more steps). Impact on progression (step 2) and final completed purchases were measured.

In this experiment, four TrustPilot reviews were appended at the bottom of landing pages of a contract cancelation service (paid). These reviews were also shown throughout the complete signup funnel (4 more steps). Impact on progression (step 2) and final completed purchases were measured.

In this experiment, an additional and alternative text based call to action link was added on real estate properity listings. Instead of only having "Ligar" ("Call"), "Enviar mensagem" was also appended ("Send Message"). This additional link lead to a lead-gen form. 

In this experiment, a question about a customer's reason for purchase was broken out into a separate step and moved earlier in the process. In the control, this question was asked in the final checkout step along with a plan selection (Step 4 of 4). In the variation, this question was shifted as a standalone first step (Step 1 of 5). Impact on completed purchases was measured (for a contract cancellation service in this case).

In this experiment, search functionality was added in the variation, globally on mobile. Impact on sales was measured

In this experiment, a historically higher price point was added as a crossed out anchor. The control only showed the current price. The variation showed the current price with the higher price crossed out. Impact on sales was measured.

In this test 1) a passive hint communicated to users that their data will be saved for 7 days for them to be able to continue their cancellation later and 2) dropped off users were targeted with an email campaign within the first 4 hours after drop off. The reminder email linked users to a shipping page (checkout page) without them requiring to fill out their personal, contract information one more time. 

Upon clicking the Add-To-Cart button, the button label changed to a cheering message which congratulated the user on his choice and ensuring that shipping is free. Translation: "Good choice. Your shipping and returns are free."

Fluke is an industrial manufacterer of measurement and calibration devices and they ran a test on their Amazon store for a series of their prodcts. Instead of using short product names, they tested longer and more descriptive ones. Impact was measured on sales.

In this experiment, the presence of a discount modal (bigger discount for larger purchases) was tested on home and product pages. The trigger happend after a scroll down, a few second pause, and a mouse scroll up interaction. Impact on sales was measured.

Does adding Google's address auto complete functionality to an address field help with higher form completions? This auto fill feature has been tested in the variation of a contract cancellation funnel. After selecting an auto completed address from a pulldown menu, the following fields were preselected: house number, zip code, city and country (potentially lowering friction?). Impact on successful form completions (contract cancellations) has been measured. Notice how the form also expanded progressively upon selecting the complete address in the variation.  

The Volders experimentation team assumed that adding information about how long it might take to get a cancellation confirmation near a CTA Button would result in higher cancellation requests (the paid service being offered).

The variation contained additional copy translated from German to: "Most of our users receive their cancellation confirmation from <vendor> within 14 days by email or letter."

In this experiment, an urgency related message with a dynamic countdown timer was added on the final checkout screen. Impact on sales was measured.

In this experiment on a product screen, a message about quality (from the founders) was reformatted to reinforce the "Anti Hole Guarantee" (in the context of socks). The founders were also made more prominent and their signature added as well. Interestingly, the actual guarantee copy (and its important detail about a 6 month product replacement) was present further down on both the control and variation.

The translation of the new copy (Google Translate) reads:

Since we founded SNOCKS, the quality and comfort of our products have always been our top priority. Why? When we both were still studying, we didn't have the money to buy new socks & underpants every 1-2 months. That's why it was clear to us from the start that we wanted to sell quality products that are also extremely comfortable. And just in case something goes wrong, we have decided to introduce an anti-hole guarantee.

This experiment replaced a visible coupon field with a dynamic text link that would initially hide the form field. Only after clicking the text link would the coupon form field appear. The translation from German is "Do you have a coupon code? Click here to apply". Impact on completed transactions was measured.

This experiment added a small nudge or callout to encourage more signups. Attention was directed towards the save function, which lead to the signup flow for anyone not signed it. Impact on signups was measured.

In this experiment, the variation has a "Back To Shopping Cart" link right underneath the checkout button. Impact on sales was measured.

In this experiment, a simple Amazon badge was added on a product page. The translated (Google) language read: "Since we founded snocks, our customers have always been our focus - we are constantly trying to develop further. That's why we're extremely proud that Amazon attracted attention and that they named us Sales Partner of the Year in 2019."

In this experiment, the variation contained a simple text change that described the quality of the product. According to Google Translate the text changed from "tight men's underpants" (control) to "are so comfortable that you don't feel them when you wear them" (variation).
