The hypothesis here was simple:

We knew that this client wanted to be contacted through his website. We placed a red "Contact Jeff" Button on top of the main site image. Placing the button in plane site we've just changed the conversation from why am I on this site? To should I actually click on this big red button?

The user is no longer confused they understand what to do on your home page. Especially, in this case it is what I like to call a soft commit action. Meaning any call to action that require email entry, contact, or free products usually are easy for site users to commit because it's all free.

The Results

Conversions increased by 54.96%.
