The Empathy Gap

DATA INSIGHT
Data. Done-For-You.
A hypothesis without evidential support is just a guess.
We create craft strategies for selling on websites – based on data research, analysis and insight.
You may not have the resource or expertise for data collection and analysis – in all its forms – to drive insight.
So we do that for you. Freeing your time to focus on executing a data-driven roadmap.

Turn Traffic Into Profit
Analytics, usability, A/B testing, copywriting, graphic design… when it comes to websites, if this myriad of skillsets has left you more confused than empowered, take a deep breath and relax. It’s much simpler than that.
There’s a way to make your website customer-centric, data-optimised and conversion-optimised. So you can:
✓ Maximize profit: achieve consistently higher profits per customer.
✓ Increase marketing efficiency: hit marketing ROI & CPA targets
✓ Reduce investment: win more customers without spending more on ads
We use our Locate-Triangulate-Create framework to consistently understand your users, the problems to be solved, and the opportunities to convert.

Our Research Framework

ECOMMERCE STRATEGY
We strategize, collaborate, and evolve your roadmap together – always based on data.
You need transformation (not just information). As part of the program, we continue to refine your plan and action items as the landscape shifts.
ROADMAP
Everything you need to do gets broken down into bite-sized action items that fits with your business.
ACCOUNTABILITY
Roadmaps need implementation. We hold regular check-in and accountability calls, and monitor progress to ensure you’re on track to achieving your goals.
FROM OUR MANIFESTO
No More Hustling
A common marketing mistake is piling into Google and Facebook. That’s where 90% of budget and resource goes: Facebook Ads, Google Ads, organic social and organic search.
The problem is that paid traffic, social media and SEO are ultra-competitive. They force you to grind on a level playing field – requiring a huge amount of ongoing resource.
On Google and Facebook, everyone’s playing by the same rules – success comes from out-hustling the competition, making it hard to grow sustainably.
With Conversion Velocity, we put a plan in place to REDUCE your reliance on third party traffic, making the most of your budget so you can scale faster.
Sustainable success comes from leveraging the assets you already OWN, to explore deeper, uncontested relationships with your customers. No more hustling…
Hi, I’m Alan Chapman
I work with companies like these to sell their vision online.
Founder of Host Digital, and creator of the 1st Party Marketing and Locate-Triangulate-Create methods.
✓ Optimiser: of business-critical websites like French Connection and The Times.
✓ Speaker: to organisations like outreachdigital.org and London Silicon Roundabout
✓ Trainer: resident course trainer on conversion optimisation at Digital Kitchen
I’ve worked with organisations like The Sun, The Times, Gatwick Airport, French Connection, Hawes and Curtis, Amanda Wakeley, Avis, Hilton and many more. But more importantly, I’ve helped countless so-called ‘challenger’ brands move the needle with their marketing. Businesses that want an “air traffic controller” to survey the landscape and set them on a path.
One of my core beliefs (and a focus of Conversion Velocity) is differentiation WITHOUT having to compete in the shark-infested waters of Google and Facebook (or Instagram, or…).
You have to stand out. But not by shouting the loudest. By playing a different game, and by using assets only YOU control to build profitable audience relationships.
