On 10/8 I switched the follow modal on by default for every discoverable company.If you're raising a Private Round or your page is invite-only, you're excluded. Everyone else has it now.Here's what it does:Someone who isn't logged in lands on your Deal Page and gets one small ask before the big one: follow. They type an email and they're done. No account needed, and they still get your posts.The people it captures land in your company's Directory page under Followers, with everyone else who follows you. Post, and we'll deliver it to them via email.Why? Won't this hurt conversion on my page?In the test it 11x'd the follow rate across ~36K visitors, with no drop in investments. The full writeup is here: We 11x'd conversion on our Deal Pages!Want to remove the modal?We highly recommend you keep it, based on the significant improvement it showed in capturing followers. However, you can remove it anytime at:Settings > Company Settings > Growth Tools, "Follow prompt for new visitors."As usual, DM me with any questions/comments!
