AI can write website copy that outperforms 80% of what is online today. You just have to teach it who it is writing for.

In this episode of Intended Consequences, Conversion Sciences founder Brian Massey shows you how to use AI to generate website copy that actually converts.

The secret is not a better prompt. It is writing for the four ways people make buying decisions.

You will learn the Modes of Research framework, first published in "Waiting for Your Cat to Bark," and how to map it onto Myers-Briggs types so any language model speaks your language.

Then you will watch live rewrites that turn flat, jargon-filled copy into messaging built for Competitive, Methodical, Spontaneous, and Humanist visitors.

By the end you can build your own AI messaging agent in ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and let it do the rewriting for you.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

• Why most B2B copy sounds the same and caps your conversion rate
• The four research modes and the buyer behind each one
• How to use Myers-Briggs as a shared vocabulary with any AI
• The simple prompt that teaches your chatbot to rewrite by mode
• How to generate personas straight from a URL
• How to A/B test copy that is finally different enough to win
• How to build a reusable AI messaging agent for your brand

Google's document leak uncovered surprising connections between conversion rate optimization (CRO), search engine optimization (SEO) and user experience (UX). Listen in as Conversion Scientists® Joel Harvey and Brian Massey talk about these connections and what they mean for optimizers.

Conversion rate optimization (CRO) is important at every stage of your business. But not every website is ready for a full-team all-in conversion optimization team. You may not be able to do the A/B testing that is the hallmark of so many CRO projects. Here are conversion optimization techniques that work no matter where you are on the CRO spectrum.

After almost four decades, I believe the best choice for another shot at a conversion is still that quaint old communication medium: email.

Email still can't be beat for rich content, for conversations that feel one-to-one, and for getting another shot at a future customer. It's the original social media platform.
