The BiggerPockets Story

WAEL
The Strategic Challenge

BiggerPockets came to us with a classic scaling challenge:

Massive engagement but lagging conversions.

As the largest real estate community in the United States, with over 2M+ members and an extensive lineup of real estate tools, digital products, and coaching to sell; they had the foundation for growth. What they needed was the science to make it happen.

We Identified 4 Core Obstacles:

High-traffic homepage underperforming on conversions

Complex product value getting lost in translation

Ambitious testing goals without the infrastructure to match

Siloed teams needing a unified testing approach

The opportunity wasn't just in fixing conversion rates – it was in transforming how BiggerPockets approached growth itself.

Experiment Led Approach

Our Experiment-Led Approach to Growth

Before kicking off any engagement, our team performs a critical discovery phase a complimentary 4 week deep dive that sets us apart from traditional agencies.

While most start billing from day one, we believe in understanding first, then executing. This research-first approach revealed something crucial: BiggerPockets wasn't facing a traffic problem or even a product problem – they were facing a storytelling challenge.

By investing in a pre-kickoff discovery, we identified strong opportunities for meaningful, revenue-focused, transformation - not just surface-level fixes.

We can do the same for you.

Transformation

The 90-Day Transformation

We delivered a three-phase strategy that balanced quick wins with systematic change:



Value Clarity

Instead of redesigning the homepage, we reorganized existing content to match user decision patterns. This simple but data-backed change drove an immediate 3.9% increase in sign-ups – translating to 78,000 additional monthly users.


Revenue Optimization

Our analysis showed pricing information was a conversion catalyst, not a barrier. By elevating pricing details, we achieved:

18.35% increase in Pro upgrades

10.4% boost in overall sign-ups

$427K additional monthly revenue


Cross-Functional Impact

The real breakthrough came from breaking down silos. By aligning product and marketing teams around shared data, we:

Improved agent finder conversions by 6.08%

Reduced implementation cycles by 64%

Created sustainable testing processes

Better Messaging Yields 2X Growth In New Member Acquisition

"One of our biggest wins was that we were able to more than double the conversion rate from an unknown user to a member on our site in our highest traffic section.

The implementation of some strategic tasks and new features we were able to more than double the conversion rate of that site section which has yielded, I would say, over 20% growth in new member acquisition."
