2. ELEPHANT IN THE BOARDROOM

CTA: Get a free quote

Fewer options limit choice. 50% of that choice is to say yes to your CTA.

With a simple "Get a free quote" button, this Elephant in the Boardroom CTA generates leads. Within seconds of landing on the page, a potential customer will know what to do next thanks to the CTA button above the fold.

3. TEAMZY

CTA: Start free trial

Advertisers aren't limited to just one CTA button, as Teamzy's landing page demonstrates. In fact, you can have multiple CTA buttons. It just must be the same one for everyone. Users have more clickable options to start a free trial with the two pink "Start Free Trial" and "Start Trial" buttons.

More click opportunities, not more options.

4. HUBSPOT

CTA: Download now.

This slide-in CTA from a marketing intelligence article shows how a well-placed call-to-action can improve the user experience.

It's unobtrusive and appears in the middle of the article, encouraging readers to "download now" while also providing a useful and free resource. After reading the article, readers can download the guide with templates to get started creating their own marketing kit.

5. THE BUDGETNISTA

CTA: Sign Up For Weekly Goodies

Who doesn't want weekly goodies? "Sign Up For Weekly Goodies" sounds a lot more appealing than "Sign Up For My Newsletter."

With the friendly and creative use of language, visitors are invited to take the desired action. This even reflects the personality of the owner, which is a nice touch that helps to personalise the interaction.

Key Takeaways to create clickable CTAs

Set Your Goal: Your goal is to get as many clicks as possible. But how many clicks are there? This is dependent on your previous performance, your consistent effort, and your reasonable projections. Set a reasonable goal for yourself, but don't slack off.

Utilise action words and verbs: You have a literal ton of action words to choose from. So go for originality. Have fun with it!

Make sure that your CTA is visible: It's a failure if someone has to scroll down to find your action button. The call-to-action cannot be placed below the fold (below what the user sees on their screen). That call-to-action is placed directly in front of their eyes.

Make your CTA into a button: There's no rule stating that you can't bury your action desire in a simple HTML link. But why not make your CTAs look like buttons to take advantage of the size, contrast, and immediate recognition that buttons provide? Friends, make your CTA buttons. Unless you're doing raw coding, every CMS and theme has a drag-and-drop feature.

Always A/B test your CTA’s for continued success!

That is all there is to it. You can see how critical a few minor call-to-action changes can be. Create CTAs that convert using the examples above as inspiration.
