Episode notes
Test Messaging With Controlled Surveys
- Run controlled experiments to test which framings of cryonics convert interest into signups.
- Use randomized groups and clear messages to build actionable outreach strategies.

- Wide mainstream media coverage doesn't automatically produce signups or calls.
- Outreach must be targeted and framed, not just broad positive publicity.
