Wynter

The client wanted to expand into the German market. So we copy tested (via Wynter) the client's German audience to explore their emotions and perceptions of the client’s website claims. Objective: Find out which elements of confidence building the German audience resonates with and does not resonate with. Plan: 1 test run via Wynter. 30 panelists, 3 feedback areas. What will we do with the data: Adjust (Brand) PTR page based on feedback from audience. Default Questions for Overall Insights: - What is your first reaction after reading this section?  - After reading everything, what’s still unclear? - How compelling is this offer? (Likert scale) - Please rate the overall clarity.  (Likert scale) Questions for Highlight Insights: - What is your first reaction after reading this section? - What about this is unclear or off-putting? - Rate the clarity of the highlighted text.  (Likert scale) - What information on this section could be clearer? Level of audience: German - Mid-level Founders/Owners/CEOs (company size is 2-50) plus Operations and Finance. Size of audience: 30 per test. Results: - Reviewers mentioned that the header was vague in messaging and wanted clarity of benefits and outcomes. - They also mentioned that the product description section was well articulated but had an overwhelming amount of copy. - Respondents mentioned better organization of the copy and using visual elements could make the information better. - The credibility sections had a positive impression. However, presence of too many awards raised doubts on the authenticity of the trust icons. - Overall, the page had a positive impression on the reviewer. They mentioned a need for visual demo of the product (either through a video or real pictures). - The call to action was termed as pushy and presented too early. Recommendation:  - Test a clearer header with specific benefits and outcomes. - Reduce and reorganize text in the product description with more visual elements. - Add a video or real images to demonstrate the product visually. - Experiment with the timing and placement of the call to action. - Limit the number of trust icons to avoid credibility concerns.

In our latest blog, Wendy shares a few proven ways to get the insights you need to fuel your strategy. Whether you’re leading a scaling business or just getting started. Great insights don’t always require great expense. 🔗 Link in the comments.

Following the lead of large brands for messaging can be misleading. Take HubSpot as an example. With phrases like “grow better,” “drive results,” or “easy to use,” paired with standard stock imagery, their messaging feels generic and cliched. But here’s the thing: they’re HubSpot. They’ve built such a strong reputation that their messaging could be anything, and people would still buy. Everyone knows what they do, so the specifics of their messaging aren’t as critical. Now, if your company is making $20M, $10M, or even less a year, and you’re fighting for space in a competitive market, your messaging does matter. Don’t look to category leaders for inspiration. Find what resonates with your audience and iterate to refine it.

You don’t need *all* the data to make good decisions. In fact, too much data can become a burden, both emotionally and practically. Everyone’s busy, and few have the luxury of spending hours sifting through endless data points. Often, it’s the fear of missing out on some hidden insight that leads to decision paralysis. This hesitation—waiting for the perfect data set—results in delays, stalled decisions, and lost momentum. In reality, research without action is just another expense. Yes, caution has its place, like when considering a major pivot, but many decisions are reversible and don’t require exhaustive research. Sometimes, a single, sharp insight is all it takes to move forward. Focus on the questions that truly matter. Limit your research to what will actually drive decisions. A survey with more than 10-15 questions? You might already be overcomplicating things. Trust the process, embrace a bit of uncertainty, and move faster. Progress comes from making decisions, not waiting on perfect information.

Messaging isn’t just a marketing exercise, it’s a direct reflection of your business strategy. If you’re struggling to stand out, it’s not enough to tweak a few words on your homepage. The root issue often lies deeper, in your positioning and differentiation. You can’t just say, “we’re for X” and expect to solve a lack of clarity or specificity. A strong message comes from a clear strategy. If the problem is blending in, the solution is to define a unique angle that sets you apart. And if your message feels generic, your strategy should involve narrowing in on a specific ideal customer profile (ICP) and aligning your product and go-to-market approach to their needs. It’s all about aligning the core of your business with how you communicate it. After all, clarity in messaging starts with clarity in strategy.
