Q&A with Oli Gardner, Co-founder at Unbounce

Media 7 | August 6, 2021

Oli Gardner, Co-founder at Unbounce, also founded Be the Keynote. Oli is a prolific international keynote speaker on a mission to rescue bad bullet points from the presenters who made them that way. He’s an award-winning public speaker and a veteran of hundreds of speaking engagements. Frequently the top-rated speaker, he has developed methods for presentation design and performance that consistently deliver amazing results. Oli has coached many beginners and advanced speakers who have seen accelerated growth in both their speaking skills and their careers.

Building a landing page without any guidance can be particularly challenging for small business owners with limited time, ad budgets, and marketing expertise.



MEDIA 7: Could you please take us through your professional journey?
OLI GARDNER:
I started out as a developer doing back-end C programming in London’s financial district. Over time I transitioned slowly to more creative roles, from web development to usability and interaction design, then creative director. When we started Unbounce I became a marketer for the first time, and my role included doing all of the website design, writing, development, and creating all of our marketing content (blog, guides, etc.). After spending a few years creating a huge array of content, I started to be asked to speak at conferences based on my thought leadership and writing style.

I turned down these invites for about 5 years then eventually said yes to an event in Austin, Texas. Despite my fear and nerves, I ended up winning an award for best presentation out of 64 speakers, so I knew I’d found my real passion and purpose.Over the past 7 years, I’ve traveled the world as a public speaker, which completely changed my life, in terms of confidence, subject matter expertise, and most wonderfully, it’s how I met my wife.


M7: What was your inspiration behind starting Be the Keynote?
OG:
I’d been coaching other speakers (mainly beginners, but some experienced speakers too) and had great success elevating their skills. I wanted to do more of this but it doesn’t scale, so I came up with Be the Keynote as a self-serve platform to teach, coach, and empower thousands of people to become public speakers and share their stories. Be the Keynote is everything you need to become an exceptional public speaker and virtual presenter. Currently, it’s primarily informational, but it will be transforming into a SaaS platform with a product that helps people to create brilliant presentations much more quickly and easily.


Your website is for organic traffic, whereas the primary purpose of a landing page is to create a focused and targeted experience for your marketing campaigns.



M7: What do you focus on when creating landing pages for your clients at Unbounce?
OG:
Unbounce is also a self-serve SaaS platform, so we have customers vs. clients. As such, we don’t build landing pages for our customers. But whenever I’m creating a landing page for myself, or Unbounce, or Be the Keynote, I follow a process known as Conversion-Centered Design (CCD). CCD has 7 principles: Attention, Context, Clarity, Congruence, Credibility, Closing, and Continuance. To illustrate briefly, Attention is about removing distractions in the form of links. In our research and experimentation, we’ve found that the more links you have on your landing page the lower the conversion rate.


M7: Can you please tell us more about your new product, Unbounce Smart Builder, which is powered by conversion intelligence?
OG:
Smart Builder (currently in open beta), is an AI-powered landing page builder that takes marketers through a guided, personalized journey of creating a landing page, pre-built to convert. Building a landing page without any guidance can be particularly challenging for small business owners with limited time, ad budgets, and marketing expertise. Leveraging Unbounce’s proprietary conversion intelligence technology powered by over 1.5 billion conversions collected over 10 years. Smart Builder gives customers personalized, AI-backed page suggestions based on their industry and conversion goals ranging from tailored templates to copy recommendations. Early adopters of Smart Builder report not only a reduction in the amount of time it takes to research, plan and launch landing pages, but enhanced utility with Smart Builder’s high-converting copy recommendations.


Seeing an audience come alive, laugh, cheer, and be inspired, is a wonderful thing to be able to create.



M7: What role does a landing page play for a company with respect to branding?
OG:
First, it’s important to understand a key distinction between your website and a landing page. Your website is for organic traffic, whereas the primary purpose of a landing page is to create a focused and targeted experience for your marketing campaigns. At Unbounce (and through our customers) we’ve shown over and over that having a dedicated landing page for your paid ads creates a far superior experience when compared to the generic experience your website’s homepage provides given that Google has made paid search results so dominant on the front page, it’s become more essential than ever to make sure you are running paid campaigns to maintain your visibility. And it’s essential that you use landing pages for those campaigns to create the best possible experience. This mindset is crucial for maintaining your brand perception, both for Google, and your visitors.


M7: You are a veteran public speaker. How does it feel to be on stage inspiring hundreds of people?
OG:
I absolutely love being on stage. There really is no other feeling like it. And I miss it dearly considering that the pandemic completely eradicated the business of speaking in public from the face of the planet. There has, of course, been a big transition to virtual presenting, but it’s not the same, and I can’t wait to get back out there in a post-COVID world. Seeing an audience come alive, laugh, cheer, and be inspired, is a wonderful thing to be able to create. This is also why I built Be the Keynote, to help others find the confidence to step on stage for the first time. The knock-on effect of more speakers sharing their voices is massive, and I can’t wait to inspire more people to do that.

Q&A with Jonathan Lacoste, Co-Founder, President and Board of Directors at Jebbit

Media 7 | January 12, 2021

Jonathan Lacoste, Co-Founder, President, and Board of Directors at Jebbit, along with his classmate and friend Tom Coburn, co-founded Jebbit, an enterprise software company in the mobile marketing and consumer data space. Jonathan has raised over $10M in venture capital with some of the largest brands in the world as customers and partners, including Google, Expedia, and dozens of professional sports teams. Since launching the company, he has been named in Forbes' "30 Under 30" and was the "Emerging Executive of the Year" in the state of Massachusetts. MEDIA 7: You have a long track record of helping build and scale successful companies such as Jebbit. Where did the original idea for Jebbit come from? JONATHAN LACOSTE: The initial spark for Jebbit came nearly a decade ago when my co-founder, Tom, was watching a Hulu video online and a video ad interrupted his show. As many college students would do, Tom opened a new internet tab and went to Facebook to spend the time while the ad played. It made us collectively realize that digital advertising was a matter of capturing and effectively using someone’s attention, this being a clear example of this advertiser wasting dollars for someone to be browsing Facebook on another tab. Like many startups though, Jebbit has morphed from this original spark based on customer feedback. The most impactful inspirations we’ve had along the way have often come from customers describing the difficulties they’ve had. Over the past few years, our customers have described how difficult it is for them to quickly create and launch digital experiences and of being unable to capture the right first-party consumer data at scale. Therefore, those are the challenges our team thinks about every day....
