I answer the question of the week
THE SHORT ANSWER
Grow your email list…
My favorite topic starts now.
Let’s talk dirty funnels.
So you’ve mastered a traffic source.
You are sending people to your landing pages and capturing their email address.
Now what?
Email addresses are not really money.
Sure they can make money, but they’re pretty useless to you right now.
So after picking up the email… now what?
Okay, let’s see.
We have someone who is already interested in you and what you have to offer…
They’ve already made a minor compromise by putting in an email address…
Seems like a shame not to sell them something, right?
So send them down a funnel..!
As soon as they click that button after entering their email, send them to a page with an offer.
Guess what?
I promise you will be surprised when people start to accept you.
Everyone?
Absolutely not.
But I promise you, if you make a halfway decent offer at a fair price, you’ll see people start buying.
For the first step of my funnel, I usually do something under $50, so let’s say it’s $27.
I guess that assumes your sales page doesn’t totally suck.
But I’m assuming you’ve watched my free video so you never have that problem.
So let’s say 200 people enter their email address.
So 5% of them decide to buy the first product.
That means you probably spent around $200-$300 dollars.
You have 200 email addresses that you can market to.
You recovered $270 dollars.
And now the kicker.
Of those 10 people who bought the product, why not make them an additional offer?
They are clearly VERY interested in what you have to offer.
Can you do something additional that adds even more value and helps them even more?
Let’s say you sell this product for $297.
And let’s say one of the ten buys that product.
Again… you will be surprised.
Here are your numbers.
1. $300 spent
2. $567 made
3. 200 earned email addresses that you can now use as free traffic
Are you seeing how amazing this is?
And these are totally real numbers.
This is how online businesses not only survive, but thrive.
Sure, this is the best case scenario.
But even if you just break even, you can run this scenario hundreds of times
build an email list of hundreds of thousands of people
and then launch a product with zero dollars in ads.
And that’s the beauty of a sales funnel.
If you can really understand this one thing, you can succeed online.
If not… watch my video… What is a sales funnel?
You can spend twice what you would spend on ads
because you earn double with each client
(and hopefully provide double the value)
Remember.
Learn, apply, learn, apply.
I hope this helps
