How brand alignment affects email acquisition rate
Experiment ID: #2858
Hillsdale College
Experiment Summary
Timeframe: 06/26/2017 - 07/26/2017
The new ad, featuring Imprimis as the brand advertiser, increased conversion rate by 23.4% without drastically affecting clickthrough rate. This shows that the brand alignment is actually quite powerful—it doesn’t drive more primary interest in the product, but makes the prospect much more likely to accept the offer.
Brand is often a misunderstood (and underestimated) term—but this experiment shows that it might have a residual effect on conversion throughout a conversion funnel. This prompted a test on the landing page to see if increasing the brand presence there would improve conversion even further.
Research Question
Will increasing the brand alignment between the advertiser and the offer increase conversion rates?

Key Learnings
Hillsdale College was promoting a free download of their popular publication, Imprimis. They had initially launched ads under the Hillsdale College brand, as the college is the publisher of the speech digest. However, they wondered if changing the visible brand to the somewhat clunky “Imprimis, a Publication of Hillsdale College” would increase conversion rates.
They launched a new ad that kept all of the original images and copy, but inserted Imprimis as the advertiser.
