In this episode, Ryan breaks down one of the most common — and most expensive — CRO mistakes he sees on B2B SaaS websites. It happens right at the most important moment in your funnel… when someone clicks “Book a Demo” or “Start Free Trial.” Most companies assume intent means commitment. It doesn’t. Ryan explains why your highest-intent page still needs persuasion, what should actually be on it, and how small structural changes can dramatically increase conversion rates. If you’re driving traffic but not getting enough demos, this episode is likely the fix.

Takeaways:

• Clicking “Book a Demo” ≠ fully convinced buyer
• Your CTA page is the most important page in your funnel
• Remove friction on free trials (minimal fields, SSO, no credit card clarity)
• Demo pages must handle objections head-on
• Shorter demos convert better
• Numbers and ROI claims outperform feature dumps
• Social proof is critical at the point of action
• Match your demo page messaging to the traffic source
• A/B test gradually — change one element at a time
• Most SaaS sites are leaking leads at the final step
