That\u2019s the name of the game, isn\u2019t it?\u00a0 To be able to drive web traffic<\/em> to your sales funnel, to peak your visitors\u2019 curiosity<\/em> so that they opt-in to your list<\/em> to learn more, so that you can sell them on your product or service<\/em>, and consequently make lots of money<\/em>, right?<\/strong><\/p>\n

As simple as this process may seem, most people cannot get the process to work because they leave out critical steps!.<\/em>..<\/p>\n

Just having a website or blog will not get you traffic, or leads, or sales<\/h3>\n

You have to draw attention to it through marketing to get the word out so that people can find your you online (and your properly setup sales funnel<\/em>) and learn about all the great things you have to offer.<\/p>\n

\n

Just as the most spectacular brick-and-mortar business needs to get the word out to generate foot traffic into their store to make sales, so too must you market online to get web traffic to your website or blog so your prospects can see what you have to offer.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The good news is, you don\u2019t have to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars each month<\/strong> in what a typical brick-and-mortar-type business would have to spend on TV or radio spots, newspaper advertisements, magazine ads, or even direct mailings.\u00a0 The great thing about marketing online is that people are all within a mouse-click of your content, your blog, your sales funnel, etc.\u00a0 You simply have to reach out in the right ways to capture their interest and get them to see what you have to offer.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Key To Success in Marketing Online<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s a million different ways to market your business online<\/strong>\u2026 (which I\u2019ll get into in a bit\u2026<\/em>)<\/p>\n

\n

However, while its important to have good marketing processes in place, it can be a waste of your time, money and energy if what you\u2019re selling isn\u2019t highly valuable, highly profitable, or doesn\u2019t convert well.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

For this reason, it\u2019s important to work backwards to ensure everything you do on the front-end<\/strong> (marketing<\/em>) will put money in your pocket on the <\/strong>back-end<\/b> (sales funnel process and product\/service<\/em>); a sustainable and scale-able business model, in other words<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Once you know your back-end process is setup correctly and in place, you can then focus solely on your marketing efforts knowing you\u2019ll generate sales and profits on the other side.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Otherwise \u2013 like many people who fail unnecessarily online<\/em> \u2013 you\u2019ll just be throwing money away, wasting your time and energy, with nothing but poor results, frustration and burnout to show for what should have been handsome profits, massive success and rewarding fulfillment.<\/p>\n

The Critical Components You Need To Have For a Profitable, Sustainable Online Business<\/h3>\n

First of course, you want to make sure that there\u2019s a high-demand for the product or service you\u2019re selling<\/strong> and that it\u2019s priced in such a way to provide extreme value for money<\/strong> for the customer to ensure long-term success<\/strong>.\u00a0 You don\u2019t want to be ripping off your customers, your business won\u2019t last long.\u00a0 You need to offer or represent the highest-quality products or services at the best possible prices to see any kind of real success.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Next, you you need to look at the products or services you\u2019re marketing and make sure the profit margin is high<\/strong> enough to make it worth your while to spend the time, energy and resources to market it and generate sales (ie, you wouldn\u2019t want to go to all the trouble of setting up this awesome sales funnel only to get 30% commissions would you?\u00a0 Especially when you can earn 100% commissions<\/a> for the same amount of effort?<\/em>)<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\"online<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You have to have products and services that are very well priced but at the same time provide high profit margins to ensure its win-win for both you and your customer (recipe for success).<\/p>\n

So once you\u2019ve got the right products and services with the right price points and profit margins you then need to make sure you have a high-converting sales video that will generate sales.<\/strong>\u00a0 1-5% or so is average, meaning 1-5% of the people who watch the sales video will end up buying but 10-20% is much better (2-10 times more sales for same effort<\/em>).\u00a0 Creating sales videos that have high conversions is a difficult thing to do and takes years of practice and experience to get the 10-20% conversions.<\/p>\n

Why sales videos you might ask?<\/h3>\n

Sure, there are other ways to get a sale: meeting someone in person, inviting them to a meeting, trying to convince them over the phone or even doing a live webinar\u2026\u00a0 Those are all methods that work, but remember our goal is to make as much money as possible with the least amount of time so we can actually make money and have a life, right?<\/strong><\/p>\n

If that\u2019s not your objective and you prefer to work harder than necessary for less income than you could otherwise make by working smarter, have at it.\u00a0 But that\u2019s not our focus in this article.\u00a0 The goal here is to help you make more money using less of your time, resources and energy so you can scale up your business and continue to make ever increasing amounts of income.<\/strong>\u00a0 You with me?\u00a0 Then let\u2019s cover the next point: sales funnels<\/p>\n

The Right Sales Funnel<\/h3>\n

\"online<\/a>See, a one-time sale is great (even if it\u2019s a monthly service sale that repeats each month<\/em>).\u00a0 But a sales funnel with multiple high-value, high-profit (related) products and high-converting sales videos is exponentially better<\/strong> (especially when your sales funnel is setup to automatically upsell your customer from one product to the next \u2013 initially on the first sale and continually over time<\/em>).<\/p>\n

It can dramatically increase your income without any additional work required on your part<\/strong>, allowing you to scale up your business and make even bigger profits that much faster.\u00a0 Having a good sales funnel in place can make the difference between a small spare-time hobby income versus earning a full-time job-replacing, life-altering income.<\/strong><\/p>\n

High-converting Capture Pages<\/h3>\n

Then we come to the capture pages<\/strong>, where your potential prospects enter their contact information (email address, for example<\/em>) in order to gain access to more information as advertised on the capture page.\u00a0 (Click here<\/a> or on the picture below to see an example of a good high-converting capture page<\/a> if you\u2019re not familiar with one.<\/em>)<\/p>\n

\"online<\/a>
\nCapture pages are the entrance to your sales funnel<\/strong> \u2013 this is where ultimately you will be driving traffic to in order to generate sales.\u00a0 It\u2019s where you entice people, or tease them with the solution to their problems and in<\/strong><\/p>\n

exchange for them entering their contact information<\/p>\n

(so you can followup with them later and continue to market to them automatically with your auto-responder<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Once they give you their contact information, your system automatically gives them access to and redirects them to your sales video to educate and enlighten them with the benefits of your product and how it will solve their issues or problems<\/strong> (which is what they were searching for to begin with<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Creating capture pages that convert is again one of those skills that for most people takes years to master.\u00a0 Starting off trying to create your capture pages may require you to have 100 people visit your capture page before you create even 1 lead.\u00a0 But over time as you get better, some of the better marketers out there consistently get 10% or 20% traffic-to-lead conversions with their capture pages.<\/p>\n

So having a good capture page that converts well can multiply your income 10-20 times alone so be sure you have expertly crafted, high-converting capture pages.<\/strong><\/p>\n

(If you\u2019re new to this process but understand the benefits of having a high-converting, high-profit sales funnel with excellent high-value products but don\u2019t want to \u2013 or can\u2019t \u2013 spend the time or resources to develop such a system, I highly recommend you begin by plugging into this system here<\/a>, where everything is already in place for you \u2013 including 100% commissions on the best products in the industry \u2013 so you can focus on money making marketing activities to create income now, not months or years down the road trying to create your own system or sales process from scratch<\/em>)<\/p>\n

So now your sales funnel and sales process is complete.\u00a0 You have all the components in place to ensure the prospects that enter your sales funnel will convert into profitable sales<\/strong>; now you just need to market it and get the word out \u2013 the easy part!<\/em><\/p>\n
