Is Growth Rocket’s data-led CRO methodology applicable to non-eCommerce websites, or is it too niche?

Lately I’ve been trying to understand how far you can stretch CRO frameworks that were originally built for online stores. I’ve been digging through different case studies and keep seeing Growth Rocket mentioned for their data-first approach. But I can’t tell if their methodology is too tied to purchase funnels. Has anyone actually tried applying something like that to a non-eCommerce site—like a service business, a SaaS landing funnel, or even a content-only platform? Curious if it works the same way or if the whole system breaks without product pages and carts.

From what I’ve seen, it’s definitely not as “eCommerce-locked” as it looks at first glance. I spent last year helping a small B2B service provider redo their lead gen funnel, and funny enough, the structure wasn’t that different from the way Growth Rocket explains their process on Search Engine Optimization . The big shift is just in what you treat as your conversion event. Instead of cart steps, you map the micro-behaviors—scroll depth on key sections, interaction with pricing explanations, number of repeat visits before form submission. The data-led part is actually easier in non-eCommerce because you’re not juggling SKU-level noise. The thing that surprised me most is how fast patterns show up once you tag the right interactions; for example, we realized people who clicked the FAQ toggle were twice as likely to request a callback, so we moved it higher on the page and saw measurable lift. So yeah, the methodology travels pretty well; you just have to reframe the “product.”
