How a Simple Pricing Page Change Generated $500K+ in Annual Revenue for Our Client

A rapidly expanding SaaS company came to us with a critical challenge: strong traffic wasn’t translating into the conversions they expected. Their pricing page was underperforming, leading to missed opportunities. With a focused approach, we drove changes that added over $500K to their annual revenue. Here’s how.
The Challenge: A Pricing Page That Confused, Not Converted
The pricing page is often the make-or-break moment for customers. For this client, it was clear from the data that this was where users were hesitating. Using heat-maps and session recordings, we identified two key issues:
1. Cluttered Layout: Users were overwhelmed by too much information and an unclear visual hierarchy, leading to decision fatigue.
2. Lack of Clarity: Pricing tiers were confusing, and the value of each option wasn’t immediately apparent.
The Solution: A Simplified and Strategic Pricing Page Redesign
We knew the pricing page needed to be more intuitive and value-driven. Here are the key changes we made:
1. Simplified the Layout: We reduced the amount of text and focused on clear, concise descriptions of each pricing tier.
2. Highlighted the Most Popular Option: By visually emphasizing the plan most customers chose, we leveraged social proof to guide decision-making.
Before vs. After: A Visual Transformation
Here’s a snapshot of the pricing page before and after the redesign:
Before:
- A design that increased cognitive load and effort for the user.
- No clear indication of which option was best for the user.
- Limited visual hierarchy.

After:
- A clean, modular layout with a focus on key features.
- The most popular option highlighted with a "Best Value" badge.
- Added "Best for" description to each pricing tier. e.g. "Just starting out"

The Results: $500K+ in Additional Revenue
The results of the redesign were immediate and measurable:
- Conversion Rate Increase: The pricing page’s conversion rate jumped from 5.58% to 6.03%, a +8% improvement.
- Higher Average Order Value: Customers were more likely to select the higher-tier plan, with 41% of users selecting Creator or Creator+ compared to 32% in the control, leading to a +28% increase in higher-tier plan selection.
- Annual Revenue Growth: Over the course of a year, this translated to ~$518,724 incremental revenue
These results reinforced the importance of a user-focused design approach to drive real business outcomes.
Why This Worked
The success of this project came down to understanding and addressing user behavior. By reducing friction and emphasizing value, we turned a confusing pricing page into a clear and compelling decision point. The key takeaways include:
1. Clarity Drives Conversions: Simplifying the user experience reduces hesitation, reduce the cognitive load!
2. Highlight Key Options: Guiding users toward a specific choice improves decision-making.
