About 6 years ago a new landing page platform for marketers, called Unbounce was launched by Oli Gardner and his co-founders. Unbounce is now one of the most recognizable brands when it comes to landing pages, the folks worked really hard to get it where it is now.
There were other similar services but Unbounce was very unique. It helps you bring landing pages very quickly and it’s 100% flexible (as opposed to most other similar services). You can easily A/B test and most importantly you do not need to deal with IT folks or anyone else really, you can. do it yourself.
In this episode Oli explains how the company was built, how they manage to grow it every single year and of course what you can do to create web pages that convert well because after all it’s not about how many people come to your site but how well they convert into leads. clients, etc. Scroll up and press that PLAY button for lots of juicy details.
Favorite quote from this episode: “If you don’t have any value than your business has no business being a business. If yo can’t communicate that value within the first few seconds than you business will fail.”
