The problem

You have traffic – but it doesn't convert

How your website conversion rate changes once CRO is set up systematically.

Without a CRO system

  • Ads deliver clicks but barely any enquiries – the budget evaporates in the funnel.
  • Decisions made on gut feeling ("I like the new button better"), not on data.
  • No tracking, no heatmaps – you don't know where visitors actually drop off.

With Brandboutique

  • Every euro of ad budget pays twice: more enquiries per click, without a bigger media budget.
  • Statistically validated tests (95% significance) – before anything goes live.
  • Clean tracking, heatmaps, session recordings – you see exactly what's happening.
Why CRO pays off

The numbers behind low conversion rates

Four facts from current studies – and what they mean for your budget.

97%

of all website visitors leave without making an enquiry. Win back just 1 percentage point and you often increase conversions and enquiries by 30–50%.

2.3%

is the median conversion rate in B2B – the top 5% reach conversion rates of 7–12%. The gap is rarely traffic, it's usually website architecture.

40%

of all sessions contain measurable "frustration" according to Contentsquare (rage clicks, errors, dead clicks). That share directly cuts visit value by 15%.

2–5×

ROI is the industry standard for solid CRO work – every euro invested returns 2 to 5 euros in additional revenue, often within the first quarter.

The solution

CRO strategies that convert together

The goal: increase the percentage of visitors who become customers. Not with a new button – with a system of analysis, hypothesis, testing and learning.

CRO audit

Heuristic analysis across 120 checkpoints plus quantitative data – in black and white, where your website is leaving money on the table.

  • UX & usability audit (desktop + mobile)
  • Funnel & drop-off analysis in GA4
  • Tracking check (events, conversions, GDPR)
  • Prioritised roadmap with 5–10 quick wins

Tracking & analytics

A clean data foundation instead of gut feeling. GA4, GTM, Consent Mode v2 – GDPR-compliant and server-side-ready.

  • GA4 & Google Tag Manager setup
  • Event & conversion tracking
  • Consent Mode v2 (GDPR-compliant)
  • Heatmaps (Microsoft Clarity, Matomo)

A/B testing

Hypothesis-driven, statistically validated (95% significance). No variant goes live before it has proven it converts better.

  • Hypothesis framework (PXL prioritisation)
  • Variation build in VWO, AB Tasty or Matomo
  • Significance & sample size analysis
  • Learning documentation after every test

UX & copy optimisation

User experience that sells: wording that converts, forms that don't lose visitors halfway, pages that work as well on a phone as on a desktop.

  • Landing page & hero optimisation
  • Multi-step forms
  • Microcopy & CTA copy
  • Mobile & thumb-zone optimisation

Checkout & funnel

1 in 4 filled carts is lost, and every second contact enquiry is abandoned mid-form. This is usually where the biggest lever in the conversion funnel sits.

  • Product page & checkout streamlining (Shopify, Woo, Shopware)
  • Trust elements & payment options
  • Cart abandoner recovery flows
  • Lead form optimisation (B2B)

Conversion psychology

Behavioural economics, applied deliberately: social proof, scarcity, anchoring – nudging visitors toward the desired action, never pushy.

  • Trust signals & social proof
  • Scarcity & urgency (honest, not manipulative)
  • Anchoring in price presentation
  • Cognitive load reduction
Our method · The uplift loop

CRO isn't a project. It's a loop.

Our conversion rate optimisation process: five steps that start again at step two after rollout. With every test, your website learns to convert a little better.

01

Audit & diagnosis

Heuristic check, tracking review, funnel analysis. We find the 5–10 biggest levers, not 50 side battles.

02

Research

Heatmaps, session recordings, short on-site surveys. Qualitative meets quantitative – so we know why people drop off.

03

Hypothesis & prioritisation

Every idea becomes a hypothesis with a clear if-then structure, sorted by PXL score – biggest expected uplift first.

04

Test & measurement

A/B test with a 50/50 split, minimum sample size, 95% significance. Usually runs 2–4 weeks – never "thumbs up" on day 3.

05

Rollout & learning

The winner goes live, the loser gets documented (20–30% lose – industry standard). Then back to step 2.

The loop is what matters: every test delivers insights – losing tests included. After six months you have a validated picture of how your audience ticks, and you're a full test cycle ahead of your competition.

Pricing & packages

Transparent ways in

Two routes: a one-off status check or an ongoing test cycle. Both with clear prices, no mystery boxes.

What our clients say about CRO

Three businesses we've worked with – on the difference between "relaunch hope" and data-driven testing.

★★★★★

No jargon, no being handed off to an intern. I deal with the person actually doing the work, and the site and the ads finally pull in the same direction. I wish I'd found them sooner.

R. T.
Founder · E-commerce brand, International
★★★★★

What won me over was the honesty. They told me where my budget was leaking before they took a penny, and fixed that first. First time I've felt someone was actually on our side.

Common questions

CRO best practices – what to know before you start

The ten questions we get asked most about CRO.

How much traffic do I need for CRO to be worth it?
For statistically sound A/B tests we recommend at least 10,000 sessions or 300 conversions per month. Below that, tests take too long or stay inconclusive. Low traffic? Then we start with the audit plus UX and copy improvements – levers that don't need tests to work. The loop kicks in later, once SEO or ads deliver enough volume.
How long does a single test take?
Typically 14 to 28 days, depending on traffic. Serious CRO requires at least 2 full weeks (because of weekend/weekday effects) and a minimum sample size calculated upfront. Anyone selling you results after 3 days is ignoring statistics – those "uplifts" usually vanish under proper analysis.
What happens when a test loses?
It happens regularly: 20–30% of all tests win, another 20–30% deliver no clear result, the rest lose or stay neutral. That's the industry standard – not a flaw. Every losing test is a validated "not like this" and therefore valuable for the next hypothesis. We document all tests transparently, learnings included. We don't do guaranteed uplifts – we do honest numbers instead.
Which tools do you use?
We're stack-agnostic and work with whatever your business already runs: A/B testing via VWO, AB Tasty, Convert or Matomo. Analytics via GA4 or Matomo (more GDPR-friendly). Heatmaps & recordings via Microsoft Clarity (free, GDPR-compliant) or Hotjar. Tag management via GTM or Piwik PRO. If there's no stack yet, we recommend the right combination – usually GA4 + GTM + Clarity as a lean GDPR setup.
Is CRO GDPR-compliant – even with heatmaps and session recordings?
Yes – when it's set up properly. We work with Consent Mode v2, anonymise IP addresses, mask input fields in session recordings (no names, emails or payment data) and prefer EU-hosted solutions like Matomo, Microsoft Clarity or Piwik PRO. Your cookie banner needs an equally prominent "Decline" button – that's an ECJ requirement and relevant under the European Accessibility Act (EAA).
How do you measure success?
For every test we define a primary metric (KPI) upfront (e.g. contact form completion, cart conversion, demo booking) and a baseline from the last 30 days. A test counts as won at ≥ 95% statistical significance with the minimum sample size reached. We also track secondary KPIs (bounce rate, time on page, scroll depth) to make sure there are no side effects. Every monthly report shows cumulative uplift and ROI – proof we increase conversion rates, not just activity.
Do you need access to our website and our developers?
For the audit, read access to Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and the website is enough. For tests, we build variants without your developers in most cases – tools like VWO or AB Tasty run variants via a visual editor or injected JavaScript. Only for more complex server-side tests or permanent rollouts do we need your dev team – and even then we deliver ready-made pull requests instead of long tickets.
What does CRO actually cost with you?
The CRO audit costs a one-off €1,490 – fixed, regardless of term or package. The CRO retainer starts at €890/month (3-month minimum term), with the audit as a one-off starting setup. If you've already booked Visible (€870/mo) or Premium (from €2,490/mo), CRO Basic or CRO Complete is already included – no separate booking needed.
Is "conversion rate optimisation" the same as "conversion rate optimization"?
Yes – same discipline, different spelling. We write British English (optimisation); the US spelling is optimization, and you'll see both used in Cyprus. Whichever way you spell it, the method is identical: data, A/B tests and statistically validated uplift instead of redesign guesswork.
What makes you different from classic UX design or a web design relaunch?
User experience (UX) design and relaunches are big, expensive bets – you change everything at once and hope it gets better. CRO is the opposite: small, measurable steps, statistically validated. We only change what provably converts better. That often saves five-figure sums on relaunches that ended up converting no better than the old site. Both have their place – but CRO is almost always the cheaper, safer route to revenue.
