Craig shares the counterintuitive \"view all\" experiment where his team blocked the product grid, added friction on purpose, and grew revenue; why he optimizes for revenue per visitor instead of conversion rate; and how Signet deliberately traded a high-volume testing program for fewer, higher-value experiments. A practical listen for product managers, designers, and experimentation leaders building programs that compound.Chapters00:45 What Signet Jewelers actually is (Kay, Jared, Zales, and more)01:45 From art school to UX to experimentation: Craig's background04:45 How experimentation is organized: a centralized model across brands06:45 From 40–50 tests a quarter to 15–25 value-driven experiments08:45 The \"view all\" experiment: adding friction to grow revenue12:45 One product page, many stakeholders: financing, warranties, chat15:45 Extracting learnings when an experiment loses18:45 Why revenue per visitor beats conversion as the north star20:15 Intent-based personalization and \"engagement season is every day\"24:45 Bringing the whole org along by tying insights to dollars.TakeawaysFriction can increase revenue. Blocking the \"view all\" grid and forcing a style choice sent shoppers deeper and lifted conversion and revenue, because the extra click added value.The three-click rule is conditional. Clicks only hurt when they're empty; a click that narrows thousands of options to dozens is a feature, not a cost.Revenue per visitor is the honest north star. Conversion rate can be gamed to 100% by making everything free or cutting bounce-heavy traffic; revenue per visitor can't.Fewer, bigger experiments beat high volume. Signet went from 40–50 tests a quarter to...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/D9kLs0HSsqR4ttk_5ESEdC1jX-wmD76GK-OHmb3a9B8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS80YTFk/MGU1MjJlODhlNjJh/MTdlZTZkN2Q1ODY5/OTdjYy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
