Ehsan's Analysis
HealthTech conversion rates vary more than any other vertical because "conversion" means completely different things depending on the buyer. Consumer healthtech (telehealth, wellness apps) converts at 1-3% from ad click to signup, similar to e-commerce. B2B healthtech converts at 0.1-0.5% from first touch to signed contract because procurement cycles involve clinical evaluation committees, IT security reviews, and compliance sign-offs. The highest-converting healthtech companies bypass the traditional sales process entirely: Teladoc signs employer contracts (one decision-maker, 50,000 users activated overnight) rather than individual patients. Doximity reached 80% of US physicians through peer-to-peer viral adoption, not sales. The conversion optimization for healthtech is not better landing pages — it is choosing the conversion path that has fewer gates. Every additional stakeholder in the approval process cuts conversion by 40-60%.
