Most conversion decisions are opinions wearing a lab coat.
We believe ecommerce teams should make fewer decisions based on opinions and more decisions based on evidence. Deliberate Lab exists to make that the default, not the exception.
Most "CRO" is a redesign with a different name.
A fresh coat of paint, applied on a deadline, justified after the fact with whatever metric moved. It ships fast, feels productive, and rarely compounds into anything.
We started Deliberate Lab because ecommerce teams deserve better than that: a system where research comes before design, evidence comes before experiments, and every result, win or loss, teaches you something for the next cycle. Not a vendor deck. Not a redesign. A system you run.
Founder-led, on purpose.
{{FOUNDER_NAME}} founded Deliberate Lab after {{YEARS}} working in conversion optimization and growth, trained through CXL's Conversion Optimization program and the CRO Agency Masterclass.
The frustration was always the same: teams shipping redesigns on opinion, then calling whatever happened afterward a win. Deliberate Lab exists to replace that with a system, research first, evidence before experiments, and the discipline to report a loss exactly as loudly as a win.

Five beliefs that shape every engagement.
Evidence over opinion
If we can't show you the data, it isn't a recommendation. It's a hunch. Every change we make traces back to research or a live experiment, never a HiPPO in the room.
Research before design
Every design decision traces back to where real shoppers actually hesitate, not a moodboard or a redesign trend.
Experiments before assumptions
We test what should work. We don't just assume it, and we don't call something a win until the evidence says so.
Learning over vanity metrics
A win that teaches you nothing is worth less than a loss that does. Every result gets reported, folded back into the next cycle.
Continuous optimization over one-time redesigns
Conversion isn't a project you finish. It's a system you run, month over month, not a redesign you launch once and walk away from.
The same seven-step system, every engagement.
Research, diagnose, hypothesize, prioritize, experiment, analyze, scale, then the loop starts again.
Ambitious DTC brands on Shopify.
We work with growth-stage DTC and ecommerce brands running on Shopify or Shopify Plus, typically past initial product-market fit, spending real money on acquisition, and ready to convert more of the traffic they already have.

Deliberate Lab vs. a typical CRO agency.
We're not shy about this. If you've worked with a CRO agency before, here's exactly what should feel different.
