Now, if your skills could help them increase visitors by 50% and increase conversion rates by 50%, too. This will mean that there are now 150 visitors each day, and the customer is selling something to 1.5% of them - which is now 2.25 sales a day, on average. So now, even with these modest increases, the daily profits have gone from 100 to 225. That's 125% more business, just from two 50% increases in visitors and conversions.
