User testing is not a luxury

Business teams always strive for better results and higher conversion rates, but convincing them to invest in user testing can take time and effort. User testing is gathering data from real users to improve a platform's user experience. Yet, despite its importance, business teams often perceive user testing as a luxury rather than a necessity, making it challenging to allocate resources and budget.

How user testing can benefit your business

However, business teams quickly see its benefits once they invest in user testing. It's a powerful tool that can help identify roadblocks and obstacles that prevent users from having a seamless experience. By removing these barriers, business teams can significantly improve their platform's user engagement, conversion rate, and overall success.

Think big, start small

The challenge is to change the perception of user testing from a "nice-to-have" to a "must-have" tool. One way to do this is to implement a "fail fast" strategy that involves testing early and often. This approach can save time and resources in the long run, allowing teams to identify and resolve issues early before they become significant problems.

Demonstrate the value of user testing

Instead of asking for a big budget, taking a proactive approach and doing user testing yourself is better. By showing the results in conversion rate, user satisfaction, turnover increase or similar effects, business teams will begin to understand the actual value of user testing.
