Hi all,<p>We&#x27;ve done one-on-one career coaching with a couple of hundred people, and found ourselves asking the same questions over and over again. So we put the most common questions into this simple tool.<p>It acts like a checklist to make sure you haven&#x27;t missed a key bit of our advice. It&#x27;s on the way to automated coaching.<p>It takes about an hour to work all the way through. That&#x27;s long, but people use it for major life decisions.<p>We built it in Guidedtrack, a simple high-level language for making Q&amp;A tools. It allows our researchers to edit the content quickly. We then overlaid our CSS theme. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.guidedtrack.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.guidedtrack.com&#x2F;</a><p>It gets about 1,000 users per week.<p>The aim of the tool is to cause people to change their career plans. 17% of users report a career plan change from engaging with us (though not necessarily from the tool itself).<p>4% make it to the end. That&#x27;s less than 17% because we have a survey about a quarter of the way in, as well as at the end.<p>Net promoter score is -10%, and use isn&#x27;t growing.<p>What are the most effective ways to make it better?
