How to Use Divi to Guide People Through Different Sticky Steps

When trying to convince visitors to reach out through your website, giving them the right incentives is key. When thinking of incentives, clear and irresistible calls to action pop into mind right away. But CTAs are usually the last part of the acquisition process. You’ll most likely build your way there by showing your company’s worth. One of the best ways to do that is by sharing your approach and unique value proposition. If you’re searching for a smooth way to design your approach, you’ll love this tutorial. Today, we’ll show you how to include different sticky steps that change while people are scrolling and reading. You’ll be able to download the JSON file for free as well!
