The first thing you might wish to consider when building your first ClickFunnels funnel, or any type of funnel for that matter, is to decide what the main purpose of your funnel is.
Are you trying to generate leads, sell your product directly, host a webinar, or maybe you want to get eyeballs on your awesome e-commerce products?
Are you an aggressive marketer seeking first and foremost to generate leads and sales?
Or maybe you have every intention of being truly versatile in your funnel launch, aiming to achieve several different goals?
You Have A Ton Of Options To Consider, However, Being Clear About The Goal Of Your Funnel Is The First Step
So which is it?
First, before you declare the very purpose of your funnels, let’s brainstorm a few options:
- You can use your funnel to generate leads
- You can use your funnel to promote your own products.
- You can use your funnel to promote affiliate offers.
- You can use your funnel to promote your webinars.
- You can use your funnel to promote your books, offers, or business.
- You can even use your funnel to promote your social media presence, if you want!
Or maybe, you could even have a funnel that’s designed to do all of the above!
Remember That Your Perfect Funnel Idea Is Limited Only By Your Creativity!
And that’s because, there are so many ways that you can pitch your offers, promote your events, books, services, or online content.
Maybe you could offer an awesome lead magnet as a free gift, and then, after your prospect subscribes to claim their free gift, you can invite them to an automated webinar.
On that webinar, you could briefly introduce yourself and your business, teach something awesome that your end users will benefit from, and then pitch one of your favorite products or offers.
Another Really Cool Idea Is To Implement Affiliate Marketing Into Your Sales Funnel Process!
Maybe after your lead subscribes to your newsletter to claim their free gift, you could have an awesome video that teaches something really cool, and then, you pitch an affiliate offer.
These days, there are so many excellent affiliate programs, that you can probably find relevant offers to promote to nearly any audience.
So it doesn’t matter if you’re an author, a blogger, a pastry chef, a freelance astrophysicist, or even an online teacher.
The truth is, if you brainstorm and analyze the problems of your end user demographic enough, you can probably discover some really neat products or services that they could most likely benefit from.
How To Go Forward With An Awesome Funnel Idea Right Now!
I’ve personally built a ton of email list building funnels for this very blog.
After messing with this type of thing since around 2010, I’ve discovered that there is really no right or wrong way to build a funnel.
The main thing I’ve discovered, is that no matter which type of funnel you want to deploy, knowledge of your end user demographic is probably the single most important variable.
Because if you don’t know the deep desires of your end user demographic, and if you’re not sure what they really need to succeed in life, then it can be much more difficult to craft an offer that rocks.
