Q&A
What are the key strategies for emphasizing the usefulness of a product or app?
Emphasize showcase studies and online demos to highlight the product's usefulness. Focus on making the user the hero of the journey and avoid using big app images as hero sections in most cases. Showcase how the app solves a problem and consider featuring a person using the app instead of the app itself.

Utilize the 'Gaze' principle to guide the eyes towards the text and CTAs. Implement CTA color matching for a cohesive and consistent design, including recoloring specific clothing elements to match the main CTA hue. Clear copy with social proof and problem definition also contributes to better engagement.

Adding people to the hero section can help resonate with the audience, making the message more impactful. Selecting relevant images of people is crucial to match the target audience.
