Exp #3: Start Service Page Commercial Optimizations
🔎
Problem
The Start Service and Request a Quote pages are among the top pages for commercial lead submissions, but they offer zero commercial-specific information before the form. Business prospects selecting “For Business & Organizations” get a generic, multi-step form with no sizing options, no frequency guidance, and no clarity on what happens after submission.
💡
Hypothesis
Adding commercial-specific context to the quote flow will increase form submissions and lead quality. Business prospects who can see available dumpster sizes, understand pickup frequency options, and know what to expect feel more confident completing the form rather than abandoning to find answers elsewhere.

What we learned
Commercial-intent prospects need commercial-specific context, even on a generic quote page. Generic forms underperform when the audience has segment-specific questions the form alone can’t answer.
Pre-form education on what to expect (sizing and next steps) lowers submission anxiety and lifts completion rates more than form-mechanics changes alone.
The lift transfers across entry points. Adding the same commercial size context above any commercial lead form is a repeatable pattern across Start Service, Request a Quote, and category landing pages.
