📈 Ask CROs Anything. Seriously.
Koalatative‘s Gerda Thomas and Experiment Nation‘s Rommil Santiago are cooking something new! We will answer ANONYMOUS questions from the CRO / Experimentation community in a new YouTube series.
If you have ANY CRO / Experimentation questions you’ve always wanted to ask but were too shy to ask, here’s your chance. There are NO stupid questions. NO topic is too spicy. Ask as many as you’d like. We’ll give you the raw, unpolished truth. (I hope we don’t regret it)
Our Latest Free Tool: BayesianBuddy
If you’re in Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) or Product Experimentation, sometimes Frequentist just isn’t it for you - maybe you don’t have a lot of sample size, and you just want to have a decently good betting chance of a winner - Bayesian could be a fit for you.
Based on facing this problem at several companies, we created BayesianBuddy: a simple Bayesian Calculator to help you figure out test winners, probability of winning, and risk of promoting a losing variant so you can make more informed decisions.
You can share results with others, compare multiple variants, set your own thresholds for risk, as well as success.
🎯 CRO Tip of the Week: Rerun Your Winning Tests After 12 Months
Just because a test won once doesn’t mean it will win forever.
As Emiliano Blanco shared on the Experiment Nation Podcast, if you’re working in a startup or fast-growing company, your users, traffic mix, and product experience can change dramatically in a year.
That means:
The context that made your A/B test successful last year might no longer hold true today.
Your audience composition and traffic sources may have shifted.
Your seasonality effects and competitive landscape may have evolved.
“If I’m running a test in a startup, I know I should rerun it again in 12 months — because ideally, the company will have grown.” – Emiliano Blanco
The takeaway
Treat every “winning” experiment as a snapshot in time, not a permanent truth. Schedule a rerun of key tests every 12 months (or sooner if traffic or behavior changes significantly).
Doing so ensures your decisions stay grounded in current customer behavior — not last year’s assumptions.
