We've been running email lightbox tests for several of our clients lately, and finding fairly consistent results that the lightboxes have little to no affect on conversion rate, while they result in large increases in email signups.
Is anyone else running tests of this type? What results are you seeing?

We have run and are currently running tests of this type and are finding similar results.
We are testing using an 'active' signup process where at certain points in our journey we ask people to subscribe, rather than just having 'passive' signup boxes on the site.
We are finding that we are getting 700%+ increases in email signups and also a slight increase in conversion rate as we can remove the signup forms from our pages and replace it with more effective content with regards to driving conversions.

That's great! Those scenarios will definitely be included in some follow-up tests.
We've even found in some cases customers who see the email light box have a higher RPV than those who don't. Very surprising for our internal team who finds them annoying, but possibly an argument for "self-consistency" in customers, suggesting that customers who interact on a small scale (email signup) are more likely to interact on a large scale (revenue).
Thanks for sharing!
