In this article, you’re going to learn the basics of setting up a sales funnel and some of the tools I use to build sales funnels. You can also access my free training where I show you how to put it all together.
What would you say if I asked you what your biggest challenge is starting an online business? Because crafting sales funnels and traffic generation would be high on your list.
Building a sales funnel requires many of the skills of online marketing and is a subtle combination of art, science, and psychology.
Watch my quick video below.
Basic elements of a sales funnel
Sales funnels should gently guide your audience into a series of logical steps.
Here are the basic elements:
- Landing/Capture Page
- Thank you Page
- Offer Page
- Checkout
- Upsell / Downsell Pages
Your sales funnel ‘tech stack’
My preferred way to build sales funnels is using the cloud service from the Home Business Academy. You have the option to use pre-build funnels and build your own from scratch. I like the control to design exactly what I want. Designing pages from scratch keeps the branding and messaging congruent, giving my visitors the best possible experience.
With HBA, no hosting is required as you get lightning-fast Amazon AWS hosting included in the Funnel Builder package.
You’ll want an autoresponder to build your email list. I use Get Response.
With all sales funnels and online real estate you own, always install your Facebook Pixel ready for Facebook ad targeting.
Done-for-you sales funnels
Done-for-you sales funnels can work extremely well if they are proven to work and if you can customise them for your own brand. A proven done-for-you funnel with products ready to go can provide an excellent option to get started and into profit quickly.
Maybe you are new to the online business world or looking for an additional income stream. If that’s the case, customisable done-for-you products will get you into profit quickly without trying to figure out the tech.
Traffic Strategies
In Part 2 of this video, I talk about traffic and the different options available.
Getting a constant stream of people to look at your stuff, is about mastering one traffic strategy, before moving on to another.
Traffic generation and traffic strategies are huge subjects in themselves, so here’s my suggestion. Russel Brunson, the creator of Clickfunnels created Traffic Secrets and you can purchase a copy at the link below with a free plus shipping deal.
