Elevator - would love some landing page feedback?

Hey everyone, we went to a soft launch today with https://tryelevator.com/personal to try to attract waiting list signups, it'd be great if anyone here could let us know what you think of the initial page & video?

Let me know!

    Congrats on the soft launch @ok200paul!

    Just a thought, but I think the landing page could benefit from a more descriptive header.

    Get paid for companies to connect with you

    It wasn't immediately clear to me what connecting with companies meant. At first glance, I thought it was a user study/research marketplace.

    Adding some clarity might help your audience understand your value prop. Something like this?

    Get paid to speak with recruiters

      Thanks @TerranceKwok - thanks for the message. The idea is to remove recruiters from the equation (for companies that don’t want to use them) and allow companies to connect with people directly. But your message does indicate we need to sharpen ours! Thanks.

        Ah got it. In Canada, we have "internal recruiters" that manage all hiring and are fully employed by the firm.

    Hey Paul. The page looks pretty. I like the branding colors, logo and the domain name.

    1. I do not like videos so I skip it. Your landing page is 100% video so if I was your regular visitor - I would skip the whole project without even knowing it is a hiring tool.
    2. Marketing idea: coders who already employed may want to research the market but they do not want their current employers to know that. It may be one of your marketing points.
    3. You may want to add a bonus for early adopters. That would increase your conversion.

      Hey @alexanderisora, thanks very much for this feedback. Really valuable. We’re looking into bonus mechanics for it, this is a great point. Thanks!

    I agree that adding some copy to describe what's contained in the video (not a description of the video but some of the top points or features of the platform) but also because some people (like me) would rather scan a transcript of bullet point instead of watching a video)

    I would also move the line" Get paid for companies to connect with you" to the top of the left side of the page above the video and increase the font to draw attention and as a CTA to click the video and watch.

      I agree with that as well!

      Thanks @Primer! This is a great point. I’ll work to get more text onto the landing page. Were you viewing on mobile by any chance?

          That’s true, yeah - we’re trying to prove the product in the local market prior to quickly expanding.
