In a fast-changing market with lots of competition, you need to be constantly innovating, testing, and developing new ideas to stay ahead of your competitors. By testing a variety of different marketing tactics, marketing experiments, and strategies you can work out the best way to drive your sales and use this knowledge to develop for the future.
There are a lot of articles that tell you to test your site and A/B test your marketing. There are a lot of articles that are telling you to fail fast. These are good concepts and can work if used correctly but in reality, it doesn’t happen. I’ve seen lots of people frustrated because they will fail fast but it doesn’t work or they only run a few tests without a framework for success.
In this episode and post, we explain why these concepts can be very powerful if used correctly and how to use them in your marketing.
