Benefits-driven vs emotional appeal messaging

Neos Kosmos tested whether changing the tone of voice on their paywall could influence conversion rates. The original messaging focused on detailing the benefits of the premium subscription, while the new approach appealed to users’ emotional and cultural connections, encouraging them to "support our work." This test aimed to determine if a more personal and culturally resonant message would lead to higher conversions.
