SHEET Experiment Framework
Whether you’re trying out a new content style or implementing a user experience improvement,
organizing your experiment design is crucial to the success of your experiment. Use this template to
navigate the many elements required for successful testing.
Observation: Begin your experiment framework by stating the observation that sparked the decision to
run an experiment. Keep this simple, informative, and to-the-point.
Example: Recently, we have seen a decline in conversion rate on our content offers. Last month, we added
two additional required fields to the landing page form.
Fill in your response here:
Objective: Add structure to your experiment by writing out what goal you are trying to accomplish, such
as to improve a specific metric or answer a question that you have.
Example: Our goal is to increase the average landing page conversion rate.
Fill in your response here:
Hypothesis: Based on your observation and objective, create a hypothesis that is rooted in the specific
problem you are hoping to solve.
Example: We believe that the decrease in landing page conversion rate is a result of added form fields.

Prediction: Next, using your objective and hypothesis as your guide, state what you believe the outcome
of this experiment will be if your hypothesis is true.
Example: By experimenting with the form design, we believe that we can increase the average landing
page conversion rate.
Fill in your response here:
Experiment design: In this section, list out the steps you will follow to execute on the experiment.
Example:
1. Create a second version of the existing landing page form that reorganizes the form fields to make
the form appear shorter and easier to complete.
2. Run an A/B test on multiple landing pages that compares the existing form to the new form head-
to-head over a 30-day window.
3. Track the conversion rate over the 30-day window for each version and compare the results.

Fill in your response here:
Considerations: Here, list out any questions that need to be answered or considerations that need to be
discussed before executing this experiment.
Example:
1. Does my design team have the bandwidth to design a new form at this time?
2. Are other teams using this form? Have they experienced a decrease in conversion rate too?
3. Is there a different reason for this decrease in conversion rate that I am overlooking, such as a
technical issue with Google Autofill?
Fill in your response here:
Success criteria: Here, state what the result of a successful experiment will be.
Example: A statistically significant increase in conversion rate.

Measurement: With your success criteria in mind, state how you will measure the results of the
experiment.
Example: The results of this experiment will be tracked using the landing page A/B test feature in
HubSpot.
Fill in your response here:
Results and learnings: Once your experiment has been executed and the results have been analyzed,
detail here the learnings you have from the experiment.
Example: This experiment resulted in a statistically significant 5% increase in the landing page conversion
rate. This experiment was a success and the new form should be scaled across our landing pages.
