Example #1 - Social Proof that Drives Usage

Classy’s research hub is a cool example of social proof. It doesn’t just highlight the value of key features — it also educates customers with valuable ways to use them.
​
Social proof often focuses solely on selling, but this approach goes further. By teaching customers how to use the product better, it helps them unlock more value. The result? more trust and more usage.

Example #2 - Best Deal on the Plane

Autopilot does an awesome job laying out the problem they solve and following it up with how they solve it.
​
I love how they quantify the problem: “The average flyer overpays on flights by $500 per year.” It’s concrete, compelling, and makes me, as a consumer, want a solution.
​
Their answer? The “lowest fare guarantee,” showing exactly how they help cut flight costs.
​
It’s all done with simple language, concise copy, and visuals that make it easy to understand.

Example #3 - A Fire Integrations Section

Most integrations sections you see on a homepage all look the same. But Firebolt took a different approach.
​
Instead of a generic “we integrate with everything” or a dull list, they created a helpful diagram. It’s clear, visually engaging, and maps exactly how data flows between Firebolt and its different types of integrations.
​
A perfect example of going the extra mile in an often-overlooked page section.

Example #4 - How To Explain "Efficiency"

The word "efficiency" is thrown around a lot in B2B marketing. We generally know what it means, but it doesn't explain HOW a product specifically helps or WHAT the benefit actually is.

That's why I like this homepage section from Greenlite. Instead of saying their product will make investigators more efficient, they say:

"Greenlite handles L1 work that is slowing down your team"

They then highlight specific repetitive jobs that their AI will eliminate for financial crime investigators.

The benefit? Investigators can "focus on real risks and proactive compliance."

Example #5 - A Killer "Why Us" Page

I love everything about this “why buy us page”. It’s clear, funny, and totally engaging—perfectly capturing PostHog’s brand and voice. My favorite part? “PostHog just does the right thing.”
​
It’s so authentically PostHog. More companies should take notes. This is how you nail a “why buy us” section.
