Starting a relationship is important to increase your credibility and provide the person with free value. Sales funnels make it easy for you to start a conversation offer the customers value and build a rapport with them to engage them further on your site.

1: What is a sales funnel?

A sales funnel is a process that people go through in which they first hear about your business and become a paying customer, as well as becoming a repeat customer.

2: Here are the various steps involved in a sales funnel process:

⦁ Top of the Funnel – Target Audience. You grab the attention of a person who belongs to your target audience.

⦁ Middle of the Funnel – Potential Customers. You get them interested in your product.

⦁ Bottom of the Funnel – Existing Customers. You persuade them to buy your product.
Russell Brunson, Co-founder of ClickFunnels, has developed the company from zero to $100M+
in annual revenue by actually utilizing a sales funnel. He also explained The Value Ladder and its
five stages.

⦁ Bait. You give customers the great opportunity of being a part of your mailing list/email list in return for them giving you their email address

⦁ Frontend. You are showing potential customers what your least expensive item is and highlighting how profitable it looks

⦁ Middle. You offer the customer a more expensive and more valuable product that they want to buy

⦁ Backend. You offer the customer the most expensive and most valuable product which they want to buy
