Although I don't like such tools for privacy reasons, I must say Hotjar is a must-have for marketers, product owners and CRO specialists. I've been using it for the last few years and it's one of the first recommendation for clients, even the trial version. Heatmaps and recordings are sooo useful and it just takes 3 minutes to set those all up.

Both Hotjar and SessionCam are my go-to qualitative tools for understanding the first level of WHY something is happening after we see WHAT is happening (from data tools). Heatmaps and recordings with auto taggings are my bread and butter to QA experiments in production, analyse behavior in particular funnel segments and all that jazz.

Hotjar is the company I founded. It was built out of the sheer frustration of having to use multiple expensive tools in order to understand the behavior of website visitors.

Next to Google analytics, you should use Hotjar as your window to understand the customer journey really deeply. You should bring with Hotjar the quantitative data from tools like GA to life and paint a clear picture of what users were experiencing.

I have used Hotjar in the past for screenrecordings, click maps, and heatmaps. I'm currently looking install again at current company, so will soon be more up to date to the software capabilities (and will also be vetting out FullStory to compare).

Hotjar is great for uncovering how users behave on your site: how do they scroll, where do they click? Also super useful for implementing visitor surveys and getting qualitative, actionable feedback regarding 1) specific pain points they're having and 2) things you should improve on your pages.

Three choices:

  • Skype
  • Zoom
  • Google Hangouts

Mentors and mentees are able to set their communication tools in their profile settings.

It is a good idea to connect with the other person once the session is accepted and the details are given. This ensures that the correct details were given and when it is time to start, you can start on time.

Here are some tips on how to get the maximum bang for your time on growth mentor calls.

  • Come into this with realistic expectations. They’re mentors, not magicians.
  • Ask your mentor if they’d be cool with you recording your screen with Loom
  • Give contextual information to help paint the picture of your current situation.
  • Growth mentors will be asking you lots of questions, answer them as honest as possible.
  • Don’t be afraid to push the boundaries of question asking. Be inquisitive. Stories are gold.
  • Don’t feel pressure, just relax. There’s no right/wrong way to do this. Avoid binary thinking.
  • Try to form mental patterns, especially if you speak with multiple mentors. Pay attention to metadata.
  • Embrace alternative views. Ask the mentors to play devil’s advocate and challenge your assumptions.
  • Be friendly and authentic. If you’re likable, the mentors will be your biggest supporters (even after the call is over).

Yup! Many of the mentors offer monthly coaching packages for members who want to really dive deep into a specific area.

Each mentor creates their own package so what they offer and the price vary from mentor to mentor. You can find their coaching info at the top of their profile.
