Introducing Sales Funnels The Rainmakers Way

Chris Batten January 15, 2023
I wanted to fist confirm that we are all starting from the same point of understanding, so first, I am going to give you the mainstream view of a sales funnel and then we are going to look at our version of that, which will focus on the automation a sales process that is designed for online virtual sales. On this platform, you can learn more about this sales process in the Seven C’s Of Why Program.
The term Sales funnel uses a simple metaphor, the funnel, which is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. It is a tool traditionally to monitor the sales process. So, at the top of the funnels, you have the unqualified prospects, your target market and at the bottom, those who have purchased one of your services or products. This is illustrated below:
We are taking this model and then focussing on the marketing and sales side of the process and giving you all the information, all the ideas you will need to become the person that can create their business funnels that will generate more traffic you own, more sales, repeat business and revenue. That should sound good to you; it does to me! When it comes to the creation of your sales funnels, you may want to do this yourself, you may want to use software, or you may want to reach out to your web engineer and get them to do it for you. Either way, before you do that, you need to have the knowledge I am about to share with you.
I also wanted to warn you that the journey is not over when you get to the last page of this course; there is so much more to learn and work on. For my members, you need not worry. We will be with you every step of the way, and as things change and new ideas become viable, we will share this with you too.

The Big Difference

What is the difference between a business with a website in the traditional sense and a business with a Website focused on sales funnels? In reality, even the most successful traditional websites have a limit on what they can earn for the business because they are not thinking about selling but telling. Often those selling are doing so too soon and forgetting that the human brain works in a way that requires us to do something before we sell, which is to attract and build trust.
