Conversion Rate Optimization that Performs

CRO isn’t about chasing clicks — it’s about designing smarter systems. In Conversion Rate Optimization that Performs, Brian Schmitt (Co-founder of Surefoot) breaks down how to approach optimization as a repeatable process, not a guessing game. You’ll learn how to evaluate your brand’s optimization maturity, identify true customer pain points, and test your way to growth.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Assess your company’s optimization maturity across data, tools, and culture
  • Conduct usability research that reveals what’s actually holding conversions back
  • Move from gut-driven marketing to structured experimentation
  • Choose the right CRO tools for your goals and resources
  • Build ethical optimization systems that scale sustainably

By the end, you’ll have a proven framework for optimizing every touchpoint of your customer experience — with integrity, precision, and measurable results.

Meet your Expert,

Brian Schmitt

Brian’s entrepreneurial spirit and work ethic were nurtured from a young age when he began hauling hay for hire in his rural Missouri community. He ran his first A/B test in 2003 by hardcoding the randomizer into the page and sending the data to Webtrends, because Google Analytics didn’t yet exist.

As co-founder of surefoot, you’ll find him doing everything from leading client strategy to connecting with partners and managing daily operations. He enjoys jujitsu, learning to surf, and the endless summer of West Palm Beach, Florida.
