Personally? I have two.I used to work for a Home Depot store. I sold lumber and building materials, which means insulation, drywall, roofing, fencing, ladders and masonry products. Quite a bit of my business was in special-order products.We sold a customer two pallets of special order shingles. We had never sold this model of shingle to anyone before. The manufacturer brought them to us on Friday and we called the customer. “My contractor will be there on Monday.”On Saturday, someone showed up in the returns line with a bundle of these shingles. “I bought these and don’t need them, so I bro...

A sales funnel is system designed to attract and convert a total stranger into a continuous buyer in your business.Building a successful sales funnel has to do with SO MANY FACTORS which I will explicitly break down one after the other here. keep reading…First I will walk you through the processes involved in creating a sales FunnelSecondly I will give you TOP secrets Hacks that will make your sales funnel covert FASTLastly the idea resources you ever need to make the Hacks and sales funnel building processes easier.Here we go!For your sales funnel to bring results, you need to first drive traffic to the landing page (after the creation). Then you need to engage and influence the traffic. Finally, you need to follow up to convert and finish the sale.1. Create a great landing page.Your sales funnel landing page is the first impression potential customers will instantly have of your business. Therefore, take time to make sure that it looks great. A good landing page will also encourage visitors to opt-in to your list to receive an incentive. This gives you that all-important contact information, which becomes your first line of communication.2. Present a front-end offer.The next step is to present potential customers with the opportunity to buy a product or procure your service. "When constructing your main front-end products and associated upsell offers, you should be engineering them with the additional mindset of… “how will this help create more desire for the next [backend] offer [you're] going to present them with".In other words, at this step you should be “pre-selling” on the next step in the funnel.3. Give an upsell offer on the back end.Offer your customers who just bought or are about to buy a product or service the opportunity to upsize, or upgrade, that service. For example, create an offer that will deliver even more benefit to the customer if he or she upgrades. This strategy is called an upsell.You are offering your customers more substance if they choose to upgrade. Of course, that also means you make more money because an upsell typically involves a larger or more expensive item or service.4. Offer a downsell option.In the same way that you encouraged customers to upgrade services in the upsell step, this element of the funnel calls for you to offer a downgrade option to certain customers.These options are for customers who are unable to buy from you due to budget constraints. Keep in mind that those constraints may change. Be considerate and offer cheaper options for these individuals to keep them as potential customers.5. Not over yet!!Another step inbetween each and every one of those steps to keep your momentum going. Following up!Follow up customers that dropped off your sales funnel with email sequences until they get back to where they dropped from.Also follow up with those that that have completed a particular action and ensure they are happy with your product or service.Below image shows a typical example of how it should be structured:A great way to accomplish this is to offer a membership-based rewards program. This will allow you to remain in contact with customers, giving you the perfect means for telling them about new deals and services.Now to the second aspect…Hacks that will make your sales funnel convert fast!For you to build a very successful and converting sales funnels, you need to understand that it’s not about the design or beauty of the funnel, but the psychology behind it.Building is SIMPLE but Converting is HARD!1. Use videos on your landing page for higher conversions because videos convert more better. No matter the type of product or services, you can use them on your landing pages as:-Product-in-action videos-Testimonials-Tutorials-Problem/solution videos2. Your offer must resonate with your audience: Most people solely focus on the copy of their landing pages and funnels, caring less about Sharpening their offers.Your offer is what will actually make a new visitor FEEL you and will desire to check out what your products or services are all about.This is what will make them buy.If your offers isn’t good, you will never be profitable.3. Learn how the human minds work: In order to be SUPER RICH in the online marketing space, you must have to master how to ‘influence’ people psychologically.It all has to do with structuring and organizing a sales funnel the right way so that people will start pulling out their credit card even before arriving to the order form.4. Study and replicate working funnels: There lots million dollar sales funnels that can be re-engineered to make yours.Research and find them (competitors, successful businesses etc). Grab a piece of paper and start studying what they are all doing and do same.5. Don’t ever build a funnel without testing: Always split test your sales your sales funnel. Test different variations of your copy, texts, colors, pages and buttons to find the ‘perfect’ converting funnel.Note: The best resource I’ve found to start learning about most of these Funnel building hacks is the Dot Com Secrets book that teaches the in and out of building a profitable sales Funnel.And FInalllyy!What are the tools and resources needed to build a successful funnel?Yeah! Most of these funnel building processes cant be completed with one, two or three tools.In all honesty, it requires the services of various softwares and tools like:Landing page builderGraphic softwareEmail marketing softwarePayment gatewaysShopping cart toolsSplit testing toolsWeb hosting plus domainFunnel building tutorials and coursesMembership siteWordPress and so on…This is the aspect which turns most online business owners off!But you do not need to worry about getting all these tools separately… because a sales funnel building software like ClickFunnels already houses all these functionality from one end……and you do not need to subscribe to each tool before building and linking up your funnel elements together.After going through what this tool is all about, you will discover that no other tool can ever be needed to set-up a working sales funnel for every business type.There might be alternatives but I doubt if most of them will be able to meet up with the expectations desired.Hope this helps?Cheers and have a nice day!

Common Scams in India:Scene 1: Aadhar mobile number update:Went to a private Aadhar e-seva kendra, filled form and was ready to submit. Assumed it’s going to be nominal charges for same. Lady said 300rs. I said bye bye.Went to e-seva kendra. This time all done. Lady asked for 50rs. I said I know its 25rs.She said “Sir we have to pay rent as well.”I said “As you are asking very less compared to others I will pay 50rs.”Felt bad about it later. Complained to UIDAI via twitter. Got reply that they will register an official complain and take necessary action.In addition to this its very common that these e-seva center charge anything between 100–300rs for new Aadhar registration(should be completely free) or update(nominal charge of 25rs). Saw it happening in one instance, raised my voice but no one supported. Seems everyone else was just wanted to get their work done and I was creating a nuisance.Scene 2: Mobile number portability:Went to Idea store. With commanding voice, I said “I am here for MNP”, as I was giving them a new customer. Got reply from lady “minimum recharge of 475rs will be needed for MNP”. I said “MNP charge is 19rs, what recharge I do after that is my choice”. But this lead to nothing. Left the store.Visited a local idea retailer. Inquired about MNP and he said 178rs minimum recharge. Didn’t want to argue again. Paid the money and left for home. Felt bad again, later complained to idea_cellular and TRAI via twitter. Still to receive a response.Even for mobile and Aadhar linking some retailers charge money, its supposed to be completely free.Scene 3: Flash Back - Last monthHad a bad mood and my train was about to leave. Thought some water could help. Went to stall and asked for two water bottles. Vendor asked for 40rs(20rs per bottle, MRP was 15rs). I became furious and scolded him left and right. Got my money back (10rs). Complained to local DRM via twitter. Got response that action will be taken and immediate fine of 500rs is charged to vendor.You see what I am trying to say, here in our country(not only our country) people always find a way to dig out money or more money by this means or another, many are aware of it but many just ignore it. I know I can’t be idealistic all the time but it disturbs me seeing people’s common lust for money around me.Call it a scam or whatever, but it’s part of our life, it’s more of a mindset and reflection of our ideologies.We might accept it, ignore it or fight against it.Sometimes it seems like endless cycle, because “We the people” always find innovative ways to scam each other.Take Care.PS. Purpose of this answer not to brag, but to make aware. What you do after that is up to you.****Made few corrections, Thanks for views, comments and upvotes, If this helps even 1% of who read, my effort was worth of something.********Corrected Aadhaar update charges as 25rs, uidai official twitter handle communicated 25+taxes hence the confusion. I would like to thank all who appreciated me in comments. Still you see I was not perfect during handling these situations, hoping to get better with that.********Update: Idea care responded, got call from manager of said idea store, he apologised and asked me to visit again. He said there are no charges for mnp and recharge is optional. I told him to mention this everytime time any customer comes for mnp rather then projecting a mandatory recharge. Also asked to make sure his team members follow that. I said I or any of my friends will be visiting store anytime and will complain again if same incident happens. Hope this is some kind of win.Got update regarding e-seva kendra complaint as well. “Fine is imposed and warning is issued.” Couldn't check personally but this is official reply.****

Have you ever heard about club memberships? If No read below. If Yes, still, please read below for my experience.Few months back, I visited one of the shopping mall in Hyderabad where a Lady approached and asked me to fill a form with my phone number for a Lottery promotion they are conducting. I gave my details just with an ignorance that winning a lottery was never in my history. After two days, I received a call from them saying that I'm one of the Luckiest winners of their club completing 25 years of celebration and they asked me to visit their office in Begumpet, Hyderabad. The key point here is that they begged/requested/forced me to come with my dependent only.With a little suspicion I went to their place and inquired watchman about it. He confirmed that it's a good place and people will come here to collect the prize money (or) Gifts. Well trained. (If you want a trusted person to guard your treasury, I can recommend this watchman).We called the particular associate from whom we received the call. He accompanied us to the main building and at the reception we saw someone arguing with them. I just ignored him and moved ahead.We moved to the main hall area where there were few other couples already seated. Then, they announced that there is a small presentation session after which the gifts will distributed to the lucky lottery winners.They moved us to another room where some music from the speakers with medium sound (You can’t hear others talks) and asked us to sit. Here all the couples are separated with an agent assigned to them individually.The initial discussions are about our background, hobbies and interest about tours. Later they started discussing about their offers which is valid only for that day and with below listed benefits.-> 25%-50% discounts on International and Domestic flight journeys from their club web portal.-> Free Hotel accommodation. National/International for 7 days in a year with pickup/drop from airport/hotel.-> Access to the club where we can use Gym/Pool/Games/Function Hall usage with no additional costs.-> 1 Night/2 Day trip to Ramoji Film City.and some other what-not benefits which I didn't remember now. Beyond all, The tempting offer for anyone is 200 Sq yards Land registration on your dependent (wife) Name Near to Shamshabad Airport.The team had very good communication skills and trained well to do your brainwash and won't give you enough time to do a market research or check reviews about them.After the presentation (brain wash) session, they told us that the cost of membership is 2 Lakh rupees which shocked me a moment because till that minute I never heard about such clubs existence or membership costs.The immediate minute I said NO to them and they started convincing me and my Wife who is more tempted for Land proposal. Of-course it's on her name. In another 30 minutes, she became a weapon for them against me and started convincing me along with them.Finally I started bargaining and for which They came down to 1.6 Lacs.Now the payment drama:Me-> I told them that I do not have that much money in my hand or account as I'm an poor typical middle class software employee. I'm working in TCS during that period.They-> They said that I can pay with my credit card and if I don’t have a limit they can help me in getting a new credit card from HDFC agent and later I can convert that amount into EMI. What a solution, They locked me here. (If you want to commit suicide, HDFC will give loan to buy poison bottle).Me-> I told them I just came simply by keeping some small notes in my pocket w/o any cards.They-> They smiled at me. (Looks like they expected this statement from me and had experienced in dealing with the such priority bakra customers like me). They sent one of their agent along with POS machine to my home on his bike following mine.After we signNowed home, I swiped my ICICI credit card for 60k, signed the agreements and for remaining amount I called the HDFC agent. They didn’t given me the agreement copies because of the remaining amount neither provided enough time to read them before the payment.We went to their place around 11 AM and completed this transactions and all the stuff by around 3 PM and moved out for a little shopping and left the city for almost an week on a family trip.Once I’m back from vacation, My HDFC card is ready and I'm almost prepared to pay the remaining 1 Lac. I also got my membership cards.God helped me here. I always had this habit of registering online for everything. So, after the cards, I logged into this club portal, registered myself and moved ahead to the flights reservation section where I do not see any such options or discounts mentioned by the sales team. It is also redirected me to makemytrip website where it shouted me for the full price.This started me to check in depth about them and there are thousands of consumer complaints on them on the same way how they cheated me. I immediately called the particular sales manager and shouted on him for which he said it's my decision to trust him or the social media comments and disconnected the call. That is the moment somehow my mind reminded me that shouting person at the reception in my first visit to their place.Next attack by the Club customer care team. I was surprised by hearing that the membership can't be cancelled (which completely opposite to what sales team said) and also they said that they are not responsible for what sales team promised to customers. They have some ethics and company policies which they must and should follow. (Wah..wah.. Babu Chitti) My mistake was that I signed on the bond papers w/o read them completely and they cleverly made my wife also signed on the documents.I done some more research in the Internet and found other people who are fighting against them by joining a whatsapp Group. Also raised an dispute request to ICICI by asking them to cancel the transaction by considering my behavior and relationship with the bank. After three months fight, I won the dispute.I received the call from that Club once they realized that the money was deducted from their accounts and started saying silly excuses and asked me to trust them again by repeating the same false promises with lesser price for the new membership.That experience made me to understand that “There is No free Lunch in the world” and started avoiding such cheap offers and writing down my mobile number everywhere.I'm still using that HDFC credit card here and there for my personal expenses. It reminds me every time how fool I'm and how precautionary I should be.And finally the Club name is COUNTRY CLUB Alias COUNTRY VACATIONS.

The answer is no.Some digital marketing programs require a website and some do not need a website,( depending on the type of product you are selling ).Let me give you an exampleFor example, if you are marketing a video training product, you might say that you almost do not need a website because most are priced at around $50 to $100 and the buyer will not take any risks and will need less information about the product but If you want to sell 2 Jet Skis you will need 100% of the website because the Jet Ski will start at $1500 and go up to $10000 and more so you need to have comprehensive inf...

Marketing is not just about getting the name and e-mail address that leads to the sale. Yes, it’s a big part, but there’s more to be done after they sign on that digital line.Too many businesses fall into this trap and believe that marketing ends when money is exchanged.Big mistake. Huge.In the digital domain, the follow-up is equally—if not more—important. A typical buyer decision process includes five steps:Problem or need identifiedResearchEvaluationDecisionPost-purchase evaluationAfter we slap down the dollars (or pounds, or euros, or yen…), we usually evaluate our experience from start to finish. Did we make the right decision? Does the product actually address the need/problem? And how well did the company meet our expectations? You need to exceed the customer’s expectations. And you do that with the sales follow-up.Send a thank you note via e-mail. Check in a day or two later to see if they have any questions or issues. Establish channels of communication (e-mail list, social media, customer service phone line) and keep them open. Offer tips and tricks to enhance their purchase. Depending on your product, there may be opportunities for upselling and/or reselling.But the bottom line is that you have to stay connected and available. A bad experience, or a customer who feels abandoned or forgotten, can kill you with negative social proof. Everyone has a potential audience of millions today, what with blogs and the myriad of social networks. Bad word-of-mouth will damage your reputation, guaranteed.Consider:74% of consumers say that word-of-mouth is a key influencer in their decision process84% either completely or somewhat trust recommendations from friends, family, and colleaguesA whopping 91% of B2B buyers are influenced by word-of-mouthBut a positive word-of-mouth review? 72% say that increases their trust in a businessFollow up, follow up, follow up. Take steps to identify and fix bad experiences before someone has the chance to air their grievance on a very public forum.
