Drop-off-point fix

We find and fix the specific points where people drop off en masse on the way to the goal: a broken step, a confusing spot, extra friction, an error. We take the problem spot from analytics/research and remove the barrier. Honestly upfront: we remove an identified barrier, but this is an improvement hypothesis, not a guaranteed conversion increase — the effect should be confirmed with a test.

Drop-off-point fix — overview

Drop-off-point fix — price, timeline & scope

Drop-off-point fix is an implementation project: we take a specific problem step (from funnel analysis, session recordings, usability — if there is no diagnosis, it is needed first), analyze the cause of the drop-off and remove the barrier: fix what is broken, simplify the step, clarify wording, remove extra friction, fix errors and dead ends. Honestly about the prerequisite, this is key: to fix a drop-off point you need to know WHERE and ideally WHY it is — without diagnosis it would be a 'random fix'; if there is no data, funnel analysis/recordings come first (separate). Honestly about the result: we remove a specific barrier, and that is a reasoned improvement hypothesis, but NOT a conversion-growth guarantee — a drop-off at a step may be caused by more than friction (price, readiness to buy, traffic source), and the fix's effect should be confirmed with a test (A/B) if traffic allows. Honestly about the essence: this is fixing a barrier, NOT comprehensive CRO and NOT a promise of '+X%' — we make a step better, while measurable growth depends on many factors. Honestly about data: fixes and priorities rely on correct analytics (garbage in, garbage out). An important boundary: this is a targeted drop-off-point fix, not funnel analysis (diagnosis — separate/prerequisite), not full form/checkout optimization (separate services) and not redesign. If there are many problem spots, it is a series of tasks, not one. Picture this: instead of 'we lose half at the payment step but change nothing' you remove the specific barrier at that step. The base price starts from 18,000 ₽ per point; it depends on the step's complexity and cause.

Problems we solve

  • You know you lose people at a step, but the barrier is not removed.
  • Broken or confusing spots on the way to the goal remain.
  • You fix at random, without understanding the drop-off cause.
  • There is no one to take and rework a specific problem spot.

What's included in the Drop-off-point fix service

  • Analyzing a specific problem step (by data/research)
  • Determining the drop-off cause (or noting that diagnosis is needed)
  • Removing the barrier: fix, simplify, clarify
  • Fixing errors, dead ends and extra friction
  • A recommendation to validate the effect with a test (where traffic allows)
  • Checking correctness after the fix
  • Handover and a short change description
  • Reviewing with you

What you get

  • A specific barrier at the problem step is removed
  • The step is simpler and clearer
  • An improvement hypothesis ready for validation (confirmation — by a test)
  • Less obvious friction on the way to the goal

How the work goes: steps

  • We take the problem step from data (or recommend diagnosis first)
  • We determine the cause and remove the barrier
  • We check correctness, recommend a test to confirm the effect

FAQ

  • Does a drop-off-point fix guarantee a conversion increase?

    No. We remove an identified barrier — a reasoned improvement hypothesis, but a drop-off may be caused by more than friction (price, readiness, traffic). The effect should be confirmed with a test (A/B) if traffic is enough; we do not promise '+X%'.

  • What if it is unclear exactly where we lose?

    Then diagnosis is needed first — funnel analysis, session recordings or usability (separate services). Fixing without understanding the cause is guesswork; we honestly suggest finding the problem first, then fixing it.

  • Is this full optimization?

    No, it is a targeted fix of a specific point. Full form, checkout or comprehensive CRO optimization are separate, larger services. If there are several problem spots, it is a series of tasks.
