Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter

Supply-side CRO can unlock major marketplace growth by optimizing for the actual intent of people who provide capacity, not just the customers who buy. A tutoring marketplace found that many tutor recruitment visitors came from job search sites, so it replaced a generic registration form with a real student job request, clear job details, pay information, and “apply” language. The change increased tutor applications by 15%, or about 20,000 additional tutors in the first year. Supply-side improvements may not show immediate revenue, but they can strengthen marketplace capacity and create an overlooked source of high-impact conversion gains.
