In this episode of The Pennock Knockdown, we’re joined by Mia Umanos, founder and CEO of ClickVoyant, an analytics company that helps DTC brands turn marketing data into actionable insights. Mia leads a team that acts as a turnkey analytics department for brands like For Love and Lemons and Ursa Major, helping them identify what’s working and what’s not. ClickVoyant also partners with CRO platforms and agencies to improve conversion rates and campaign performance.
Mia discusses her journey from a big agency job to starting ClickVoyant, driven by the observation that many brands, especially those under $100 million in annual revenue, ignore crucial website data and shopper behavior. She highlights the common disconnect between marketing and e-commerce teams, which can lead to missed opportunities, such as sending traffic to a homepage when a more specific landing page is needed. Mia emphasizes the importance of a scientific approach to conversion rate optimization (CRO) and experimentation, contrasting it with a non-scientific approach of simply guessing or copying competitors. She also shares her mission to make analytics and CRO affordable and accessible, noting that ClickVoyant’s lowest package is $750 a month, which includes detailed analysis and a roadmap for testing.
