Before using OptinMonster, American Bird Conservancy collected fewer than 100 leads per month on their website. They turned to OptinMonster with the goal of creating new leads as well as driving donations and petition signatures.

Joe Lowe, Director of Digital Communications for American Bird Conservancy, told us more about how they use OptinMonster.

How American Bird Conservancy Uses OptinMonster

American Bird Conservancy knew that getting less than 100 leads per month wasn’t doing any favors for their fundraising. One of the first things they wanted to do with OptinMonster was to capture more leads with a strong lead magnet. This would help them build a robust email list that they could target for their fundraising efforts.

lead magnet is a valuable piece of content offered in exchange for a visitor’s email address.

Their Bird of the Week offering is extremely popular. The mobile version converts 3.67% of visitors while the desktop version converts at a respectable 1.4%.

Those are great results, but to get the most from their campaigns, American Bird Conservancy loves using OptinMonster’s A/B testing tools to find out which campaigns perform the best.

American Bird Conservancy has used A/B testing on their Federal Buildings campaign with great success. Here are 2 campaigns they evaluated… Which campaign do you think performs the best?

Campaign 1

Campaign 2

If you guessed campaign 1, you’re right. A simple change of the image resulted in a 3.99% conversion rate!

A/B testing is super easy to implement. From your campaign dashboard, choose the campaign you want to split test and click the split test icon:

From there, give your split test campaign a name and enter a description detailing what you’re testing:

Then, just click Create Split Test and make your edits before saving this version of your campaign.

As if all this success weren’t enough, American Bird Conservancy uses page-level targeting for their best lead conversion rates. Their Cats Pledge campaign used display rules to have the campaign only show up on certain pages, resulting in a 3.54% conversion rate!

With page-level targeting, you can show or hide offers depending on how different groups of visitors have interacted with your website:

American Bird Conservancy has also had great luck with mobile-specific campaigns and page-level targeting together.

This campaign is created specifically for mobile devices and only appears when visitors are on a specific page:

This campaign converts at 7.01%!

I hate popups, so I was hesitant to try one on my site. But the results from OptinMonster exit-intent popup speak for themselves. I doubled my subscription rate immediately without annoying my users. I haven’t had a single complaint. My only regret is that I didn’t start using OptinMonster sooner. I can only imagine how many subscribers I could have added to my email list! If you have a blog, then I highly recommend you start using OptinMonster. I’ve researched them all, and it’s the best in market.
