WordStream founder and current CTO, Larry Kim, dropped by Webcology for a wide ranging interview on statistics, demographics, analytics and web marketing. Kim is a long term web marketer with incredible insights on how to extract consumer data from social media applications like Facebook and LinkedIn, and how to use that information to radically increase conversions in any given campaign. Dave Davies ran into Larry after his Conversion Conference 2016 presentation, â4 Ridiculously Awesome Ways That Search & Social Ads Magnify CRO by 3-5xâ. his presentation with noting, “… small changes usually result in small changes. Sometimes you need to make bold decisions to get significant results”.
He further notes the importance of knowing what a conversion is. A lead that doesnât convert actually costs money so if a change drives unqualified leads itâs not a good change. The interview lasts about thirty five minutes and was a truly interesting and fun conversation.
