Replace rotating carousel with static hero
Strong evidence
Build this play with TailorWhen to use it
When the hero is an auto-rotating carousel or slider cycling through several messages and offers.
How to run it
Freeze it into one static hero built from the best-performing slide, with one message and one CTA.
Why it works
Point every eye at the one action
Auto-rotating slides annoy visitors, and almost every click lands on slide one anyway. In Erik Runyon's Notre Dame data about 1% of visitors clicked a carousel at all, and 84% of those clicks were on the first slide.
