The new tactic is to put a process behind you’re A/B testing efforts.

When thinking big to get big results, not everything is going to be right. The important takeaway from failures is to change the negative aspects and allow the process to be effective.
Once you begin the launch of your new experience, it’s time to start testing. If you have more than one, which showed better results? If results didn’t turn out expected, then that is a good thing.
Use this to your advantage in iterating the same process but adding or exchanging variables to counteract the previous experience.
Many iterations can be made, there is no limit. If you decide to forget the process of iteration, your great idea could be overlooked.
So, remember to not move on too quick before iterating you’re A/B testing.
