3 Reasons You Need To Understand Sales Funnels

Are you having trouble get results from your latest Facebook ad?

You know Facebook is one of the best places for you to promote your business but something just isn’t connecting. Before you start your next campaign, I want you to take a look at your sales funnel.

What Is A Sales Funnel?

Ryan Deiss of Digital Marketer describes a sales funnel as a “multi-step, multi-modality process that moves prospective browsers into buyers“.

Moving browsers to buyers can be done in several ways:

• Email marketing- such as nurture sequences, welcome series. The keys here are to start delivering immense value very quickly and establish rapport with your audience.
• Content marketing- such as blogs, videos or other types of content.  Regular blog posts lead to more lead generation and sales. For more on the power of blogging for your business, click here.
