#1. Optimize CRO with psychological insights 🧠

Elevate your conversion rate optimization (CRO) efforts with proven psychological principles.

Here are three strategies to implement, test, and adapt:

1. Fitts's Law for UI Design: Put the CTA in large font and above the fold. Use high-contrast colors and position them for expected reading patterns (left to right or right to left, depending on the language).

2. Facial Detection Effect: Include human faces to direct viewers towards important content or CTAs.

3. Endowed Progress Effect: Add visual progress cues to motivate your audience to complete actions. For example, use progress bars in multi-step forms.

#2: Strategically manage your TikTok ad bidding 🗺️

Michelle Morgan broke down the differences between Cost Cap and Maximum Delivery bidding strategies.

Here’s how to decide between TikTok’s two bidding options so you can achieve your campaign goals most efficiently:

  • Use Cost Cap when your priority is maintaining a specific cost per result. It’s best for goal-oriented advertisers who prioritize cost efficiency over consistent spending.

  • Opt for Maximum Delivery when your goal is to spend your budget fully and maximize reach. Try it for boosting brand awareness or launching a new product.

#3. Navigate ad blockers by optimizing for mobile 📱

Nearly half of U.S. users have ad blockers installed on their desktop browsers. The good news? Only 9% are blocking ads on their smartphones.

Improve your efforts with mobile-friendly ads:

  • Focus on mobile-centric platforms like Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok to increase views.

  • Use responsive ad design, optimize load times, and create content tailored to smaller screens.

  • And, always monitor, analyze, and optimize your mobile ad performance based on your user’s engagement habits.
