Why Every Business Needs a Sales
Funnel

Whether you’re an established business or just getting started, you need to build a
sales funnel. This automated process combines several sales techniques to move
potential customers from unknown visitors to loyal customers. It’s a critical step in
growing your company and keeping your current customers happy.

The first step in your funnel is awareness. This phase includes all the ways you
capture your audience’s attention online and offline. Whether it’s social media,
blogs, infographics, videos, or even TV and radio ads, you want to find ways to reach
your target market. You also want to focus on the demographics that are most likely
to buy your product or service. This is the only way to optimize your budget and
spend time on leads that are most likely to convert.

Next, your prospects are attracted by a lead magnet that is relevant to their specific
pain points. This could be a free resource that educates them on the topic of the
page they landed on, a tool that addresses their problem, or an email opt-in. The 
goal of your lead magnet is to get their email address so you can keep in touch.
You’ll use this information to segment your audience and send them messages that
are relevant to their needs.

Once your leads have opted in, you can start nurturing them with a series of
educational content that shows you are an expert in their problem area. This can
include ebooks, blog posts, infographics, video content, or webinars. The key is to
provide the information your audience is looking for without being overly salesy.
Pushing too hard will turn them off and they may never return. The idea is to create
trust and credibility that results in the first sale. Tools that can help you at this stage
are chatbots, inquiry forms, and email marketing campaigns.

When you’ve nailed this stage, your leads are ready to take action. They’re familiar
with your brand, and they’re interested in experiencing it. At this point, you can
make a call to action that’s irresistible. This could be a discount for their first
purchase, a gift card when they spend over $100, or an incentive to come back and
shop again.

The final stage is conversion. Once your leads have made their purchase, it’s
important to follow up with them. Sending surveys, referral campaigns, and loyalty
programs will help your brand maintain a strong relationship with these customers.
This will encourage them to continue purchasing your products or services, and they
may even refer you to new prospects.

Creating a successful sales funnel takes time and effort, but it’s an essential part of
any marketing strategy. Using a CRM that provides real-time prospect data,
automation, and prospect engagement tools will help you focus on selling and
nurture. This will ultimately result in a better ROI for your business.

Hi, I’m Marty from Las Vegas.

I was a Software Engineer in Silicon Valley for 30 years. Moved to Vegas for lower cost of living including no state income tax. Now collecting Social Security and it’s not enough to get by, doing online marketing to supplement my income.

I was successful for a time as an Amazon Seller, but really long story really short, between competition, and Amazon making it more difficult by screwing me over, that is over.

Now promoting products that help others who really need a break, to make money online also. Please join my email list to learn about how.
