Spectrum Inc were their conversion consultants.
Goals
Increase conversions by using appropriate images, using VWO – A/B Testing software, thereby improving overall branding.
Tests run
Spectrum Inc, Harrington Movers’ conversion consultant, suspected that the “happy couple” image on their home page doesn’t relate much to the service. Their interstate moving service pages used a generic stock image of a couple, as seen in the Control page below:
So, Spectrum Inc hypothesized that replacing this stock photo with an image that closely relates to the moving service will increase clicks on the CTA ‘Request a Quote‘, thereby increasing leads from the website. They used VWO to do a quick A/B test to check the relevance of images.
Two alternate versions with different images were pitted against the Control page above. The first version showed the image of Harrington Movers’ crew. The second version displayed the image of the truck they use for moving services. To emphasize branding, both these images also included the company’s logo.
Here are the two versions:
Conclusion
Both the versions beat the Control with 98% statistical confidence level. The test has been running for three months now. It’s a close call between the two versions.
While version 1 with crew image showed a percentage improvement of 45.45%, the second version with truck image was close behind with 45.05% improvement over the original.

Key Takeaways:
- Stop using stock photos. They look fake and reduce trust on your website.
- Use images that best represent your product/service.
- Have a good reason to use an image. “It looks pretty” doesn’t count.

Assuming a constant value per lead, this test has added about $10,000 / month in interstate moves so far.
