How to Get Fast Partner Approval with Crazy Egg

Getting a partner approved quickly can be the difference between closing a deal or losing momentum. Crazy Egg’s Fast Partner Approve feature streamlines the process, giving you the data and confidence you need in minutes. In this guide we’ll break down exactly how to use the tool, share best‑practice tips, and answer the most common questions.

Why Fast Partner Approve Matters

Traditional partner approvals often involve lengthy back‑and‑forth emails, manual data pulls, and vague metrics. Crazy Egg replaces that friction with:

• Instant visual heatmaps that show real user behavior on partner sites.
• Clickable scroll maps to confirm content engagement.
• One‑click sharing of a secure approval link.

These insights let you prove ROI to stakeholders faster, reduce negotiation cycles, and secure partnerships with confidence.

Step‑by‑Step Setup

1. Create a Crazy Egg Account (If You Haven’t Already)

Sign up at crazyegg.com. Choose a plan that includes the Partner Dashboard. The free trial gives you access to the core features you need for fast approvals.

2. Install the Tracking Script on the Partner Site

1. Copy the JavaScript snippet from the Settings → Tracking Code page.
2. Paste it just before the closing </body> tag on the partner’s site.
3. Publish the page and verify the script is active (the Crazy Egg dashboard will turn green).

Tip: Ask the partner’s developer to place the script in a partner‑tracking.js file so it can be removed later without affecting the main site.

3. Configure a Fast Partner Approve Snapshot

From the dashboard, click New Snapshot → Fast Partner Approve. Select the pages you want to monitor (typically the landing page, pricing page, and checkout funnel). Set the date range to the most recent 7 days for up‑to‑date metrics.

4. Review Heatmaps & Scroll Maps

Crazy Egg automatically generates:

• Heatmaps: Where users click the most.
• Scroll maps: How far down the page they scroll.
• Confetti reports: Click details broken down by traffic source.

Look for the following approval triggers:

• Click‑through rate (CTR) on the Call‑to‑Action button > 25%.
• Scroll depth reaching the pricing table on at least 70% of visitors.
• Low bounce rate (<15%) on the partner’s landing page.

5. Generate the Approval Link

Click Share Snapshot → Fast Approve. The system creates a secure, time‑limited URL that you can send directly to your internal approvers. They’ll see the same visual data without needing a Crazy Egg login.

Best Practices for Faster Approvals

• Pre‑define success metrics. Agree on CTR and scroll thresholds before collecting data.
• Use segmentation. Filter by traffic source (organic vs paid) to show the most relevant audience.
• Combine with conversion data. Export Crazy Egg data and import it into your CRM for a full‑funnel view.
• Document insights. Add a brief note in the approval link describing why the numbers meet the partnership criteria.

Common Pitfalls & How to Avoid Them

Issue	Solution
Script not firing on partner’s subdomains	Check the domain whitelist in Settings and add any sub‑domains.
Low sample size	Extend the data collection period to at least 5‑7 days or increase traffic via a short ad boost.
Stakeholder skepticism	Include a short video walkthrough of the heatmap during the approval call.
