What this page decides

Decision: Summarize whether the conversion optimization recommendation is approved, caveated, held for more evidence, or ready for a test plan based on decision quality and governance state.

Sample review note

Review system

What 10X checks

These checks sit after the main explanation so a reviewer can scan the evidence requirements without breaking the article flow.

Evidence checks

  • Review whether the page builds enough emotional and logical belief before it asks for action.
  • Separate observed inputs from assumptions before treating a scenario as decision evidence.
  • Separate decision-driving conversions from diagnostic events and caveated attribution signals.
  • Separate a funnel leak from an operating leak, such as no follow-up, no promotion, weak delivery, or no owner.
  • Summarize the finding, evidence quality, contradiction risk, and recommendation state in one reviewable memo.
  • Connect the recommendation to a prioritized backlog item, research task, or experiment plan instead of leaving it as advice.
  • Protect the memo from overstating what research or test evidence proves.
  • Record who approves the recommendation and what action is allowed after approval.

Questions to answer

  • Decision
    What decision is the conversion lead trying to make for conversion optimization governance: approve, hold, or send back for evidence?
  • Decision
    Which input would make the marketer trust the conversion optimization governance read enough to change the page, offer, or experiment decision?
  • Decision
    What caveat should stay visible before the team changes the page, offer, or experiment decision?
  • Decision
    Who owns the next action if the review is approved, and what stays on hold if it is not?

Evidence inputs

Data sources that must stay attached

These inputs keep the recommendation grounded before anyone changes the page, campaign, query target, CRM step, or growth priority.

  • Decision memo -- the written recommendation including its stated reasoning and confidence level
  • Research synthesis -- underlying qualitative and quantitative evidence that informed the recommendation
  • Prioritized backlog -- the ranked list of initiatives where this recommendation would land
  • Experiment plan -- any proposed or completed test design tied to the recommendation
  • Analytics workspace -- platform data showing conversion behavior, funnel movement, and attribution signals
  • Approval log -- record of who has reviewed, approved, or held previous recommendations in this area

Can 10X make the change automatically?

No. The recommendation stays reviewable and approval-gated until a human reviewer accepts the action. The governance decision requires judgment about risk tolerance and organizational context that cannot be delegated to a system.

What happens when a supporting input is missing?

The memo keeps the recommendation caveated and names the missing context before proposing follow-up. Acting on incomplete evidence risks both a wrong action and a lost learning opportunity. Naming the gap assigns accountability for filling it.

What should the reviewer check for evidence-to-decision summary?

Whether the caveat can reverse the action. If it can, label the recommendation held until the missing evidence is reviewed. The reviewer checks whether evidence is sufficient to support the specific action proposed, given its cost and reversibility.

What should the reviewer check for prioritization and experiment link?

Whether the next step ties to an owned route. If not, create a planning task rather than an execution recommendation. Unowned recommendations accumulate without accountability, creating the illusion of progress while execution stalls.

What should the reviewer check for claim and confidence governance?

Whether the evidence is directional or conclusive. If directional, avoid winner language and keep the recommendation as a staged review. Overstating confidence erodes stakeholder trust when the action does not produce expected results.

What should the reviewer check for approval and follow-up control?

Whether an explicit approval exists. If missing, draft follow-up but do not mark it executable. This prevents teams from skipping the gate under urgency, only to discover the action conflicted with another initiative or violated a constraint the approver would have caught.
