One of my coaching clients read my last post, Do Coupon Codes INCREASE Checkout Abandonment?, asked me a question about how to turn off the coupon code field when using 1ShoppingCart (the shopping cart system I currently use.)
So I recorded him a quick video showing how to do it, and I figured it may be of help to you as well!
So [...]

It seems like a lot of my recent blog posts are coming out of the “Conversion Tips”, I’m posting to Twitter.
(Click here to follow me on Twitter.)

I just posted a new video that you need to Watch Right Now.

It answers a question that I’ve got from several of my email coaching clients over the past month or two.
They’ve been asking, ” Is the ‘Bad Economy’ hurting conversion rates and online sales?”
You see, my coaching clients know I have products in dozens of markets and niches (that’s where my REAL money comes from.)
And because most top online marketers turn to me for help with their testing and analytics I get to see conversion trends in dozens of additional markets and niches.
So that gives me a pretty unique – big picture view of trends in the online marketplace.
My answer to this question my surprise (and possibly even offend) you.
