While this is a marketplace post marking the re-launch of my popular course “5-Steps to Create a Money-Making Machine”, by the end of this post, whether you decide to join my course or not, I will give you a full education (that you can take action on) about what it takes to create a 6, 7 or even 8-figure income with sales funnels.
Who I Am And Why You Should Listen
If you don’t know already, I own a direct response agency called TANDA Copywriting, and we specialize in conversion rate optimization, building funnels, and generating traffic for funnels.
We’ve worked with e-com business owners (dropshippers, private label, etc.), info product businesses, coaches and consultants, and we’ve helped them structure sales funnels, drive traffic, and maximise their conversions. In the process we have helped people scale to 6 or 7 figures in income with their funnels alone.
Why Should You Care About Sales Funnels?
Everyone who is selling anything online has a sales funnel, which is the sales strategy that they use to gain new and repeat customers. A sales funnel is simply how you deliver the value you have to offer to your customers to gain maximum exposure as fast as possible.
If you don’t know how to build a sales funnel, you’ll have a hard time scaling your business and actually selling your product/service. Regardless of what business you’re in, having a thorough understanding of sales funnels and what makes them work can be the difference between making thousands and making millions.
I would say understanding sales funnels is the number one way to grow your income. And that’s true whether you’re just getting started or currently running a Fastlane business. My promise to you is that if you read to the end, you’ll very likely think the same.
What is a Sales Funnel?
It’s simply the system that is responsible for getting you new and repeat customers. In short, it is a money-making machine.
Sales Funnels Are Complex Systems
The first thing to understand about funnels is that they are complex systems. This means that they have many interrelated parts, and to get your entire funnel working like a well-oiled sales machine, you must optimize each part.
It also means that a sales funnel is more than the sum of its individual parts, and that your returns throughout the sales funnel compound. Say your funnel has 5 parts, and you increase the effectiveness of each part by 10%, the end result will be a 61% increase in your bottom line (not 50%).
Breaking Systems into Subsystems
Briefly speaking, each funnel can be broken into two sub systems. The frontend and the backend.
The frontend of the funnel represents that part of your sales process that is responsible for bringing new leads and prospects into your business. For some people, this may represent getting the customer to make the first purchase, or otherwise getting the customer’s email and other details for further contact.
The frontend has multiple sub systems itself. You have traffic generation, and you have the rest of the process that is required to take a customer from a lead to a prospect, and finally to a first-time customer. So the series of pages, webinars, lead magnets, ads and whatever else you use are part of your frontend.
Then you have the backend. It is responsible for building trust with your prospects, converting them into customers, getting referrals, and getting repeat buyers. Typically, your backend is formed of email marketing and the communication that goes on after your prospects or customers have given you permission to be in touch with them. The role of the backend is twofold.
The first is to act as a support for your frontend. One of its goals is to maximise the effectiveness of your frontend and its subsystems. Abandoned carts would be an example.
Second, your backend aims to build your relationship with your customers and move them all the way through your funnel, including getting repeat buyers, referrals and all the rest. This may require additional web pages and procedures.
A Very Simple Funnel for a Freelancer
A good way to think about sales funnels that shatters a lot of misconceptions is to take a simple funnel, break it down into its subsystems, see how it works, and see how improvements could help the individual.
So let’s take a freelancer who works as a web designer on Upwork. Intuitively, such a person does not think they have a funnel. They’re probably making most of the mistakes people make when thinking about funnels and losing a lot because of it.
It might be why they’re a $10-20/hr freelancer, and not pulling in with the big boys at $100/hr and above.
What is the ideal, most perfect situation for such a freelancer?
It consists in the following:
✔ Applying to jobs
✔ A high response rate to applications
✔ Getting a lot of invites from clients
✔ A high conversion rate once client has responded
✔ Consistently receiving great feedback
✔ Getting referrals
✔ Getting repeat business
That in a nutshell is what the freelancer wants his funnel to achieve. The first three components are covered by the frontend of the freelancer’s sales funnel, and the last four by their backend.
What does the frontend consist in?
The freelancer’s:
• Profile
• Application Procedure
• Search Engine Position
Each of these has multiple subsystems. The profile has the profile title, the description, the video, the freelancer’s photo, the skills they list and so on.
Each has different principles governing it. For example, the search engine position is largely determined by the velocity of work the freelancer can do. A large volume of work and successful jobs, means higher position in search results and more invites PRESUMING the freelancer’s profile is strong & appealing.
That’s why if you stop working for awhile on Upwork, you get no more invites. It’s also a way for Upwork to make sure you’re not stealing their clients off the platform.
The strength of the profile is governed by the freelancer’s unique value proposition, and their market positioning. How are they different than their competitors? Why should anyone do business with them?
Then we have the application procedure. What system does the freelancer have? How are they using the application procedure to provide value? Do they have a system to make applications daily? What guarantee does the freelancer give during the application process that makes the decision to work with them a “no-brainer”?
By identifying these components of the funnel, the freelancer can continuously work to improve all of them. And the results will compound. A 10% improvement in their profile and application procedure, will result by itself in an improvement in their search engine position, which will cause a mini spike in the demand for their services.
Results will NOT be linear. But it does take a consistent process of identifying the components of the sales funnel, and working continuously to improve them.
Creating a high-converting funnel is a PROCESS not an EVENT.
What about the backend?
Much like the freelancer’s frontend, the backend also consists in certain elements:
• Obtaining a Call/Discussion to Qualify the Buyer, Identify Needs & Convert Them
• Asking for Feedback
• Asking for Referrals
The freelancer will have Standard Procedures to handle asking for feedback and referrals. His work is to improve them – identify when they are working, and when they’re not, and always finding ways to make them better.
Discussing with the client is a critical aspect of the backend. The freelancer’s goal is NOT just to sell the client for maximum value possible upfront. It should rather be to qualify if they are the right kind of client (you don’t want to work with people who won’t treat you right for example), and then identify their needs.
This is super important, and here’s why.
They may need something different than what they’re asking for. It may be a possibility for the freelancer to upsell or cross-sell them to another service. And it lays the ground-work for getting repeat purchases by helping the client solve their REAL problem, whatever that is, which will likely take more than just one job to do.
The freelancer’s aim should be to become a CONSULTANT for the client, not a transactional deal, and the freelancer should refuse clients who are transactional because they are a one-time deal that prevents the freelancer from onboarding ideal clients.
Again, by understanding his funnel, and working to improve and maximise the value of each component, over time, the freelancer will literarily skyrocket his income, and become a $100+/hour worker in no time.
Not only will he understand the MATHEMATICAL CAUSES of his success, but he will become the very BEST in his chosen field, literarily LEADING the field because he understands the sales process better than his competitors, thus putting him in the position to provide the most value.
The Biggest Mistakes People Make With Sales Funnels
Many people ignore or misuse sales funnels because of these very common mistakes:
✖ Thinking that sales funnels are just the things you build using Clickfunnels or similar software;
✖ Thinking they don’t have, or don’t need, a sales funnel. Every successful business – whether a freelancer or a Fastlane type business - has a sales funnel, whether they know it or not;
✖ Thinking that they can make easy, plug and play money once their funnel is built. This is not how it goes, and it usually takes quite a bit of tinkering and optimizing;
✖ Thinking that having a funnel saves them from delivering real value and doing real worthwhile work for their clients;
✖ Thinking that a funnel is a way to TRICK clients, and cheat people out of their money. It’s not – it’s a method for delivering value, and if you have no value to offer, then you don’t have anything to use a sales funnel for;
✖ Not using their funnel to build trust with their prospects before asking for money;
✖ Not investing in the backend of their funnel. The backend is where MOST of the truly BIG results will come from, so a lot of money is left on the table by too much focus on the frontend and the apparently “easy” money that takes little work;
✖ Not breaking up their funnels into subsystems and then working to optimize each subsystem in the context of the whole;
✖ Not sticking with it long enough to do all the optimizations that are required;
✖ Using funnels as an EXCUSE for not being the absolute best in their chosen field.
Most of the people who fail at building successful funnels and making 100K-1Mil+ make one or more of the mistakes above.
And here’s the biggie. Just knowing those mistakes is NOT enough to avoid them.
Fortunately, there is a way to avoid them, but that means going to the root of the problem. It means uncovering the mindset that generates the type of belief-system that will fall headfirst into these mistakes even if the person knows them in advance.
We may think we know the mistakes, but if we have the wrong mindset, and the wrong belief system, then that system will create a cognitive blindspot, and in the heat of the moment, we will act as if we do NOT know the mistakes at all – and we will fail.
So let’s talk about that for a bit. We’ll make it easy to understand by building the portraits of the FAILURE mindset, and the SUCCESS mindset, and putting them next to each other.
In the process you will see how the characters’s underlying beliefs get them to make the WRONG choice and fall prey to the mistakes above even if they should have known better.
Here’s Joe: He Makes Many of The Mistakes Above & Builds Funnels That Nobody Buys From
Joe got into online marketing as a way to make more money, through whatever means possible. He hates the job he’s working, and he hates that he’s always been average. He’s always looking to make a buck, and every opportunity he gets he wants to get something out of it.
His biggest fear is remaining stuck in the same job, and he’s going to take any “opportunity” that promises to make him a quick extra buck. The more opportunities, the more likely he is to get lucky.
He’s a real go-getter and is determined to be rich. And yet, somehow he barely makes enough money every month. He’s sick and tired of working long hours, and is determined to STOP this. From now on he will make the “4-hour work week” a reality, work less, and make MORE.
So he jumps into online marketing. It looks promising, you can reach billions of people after all through the internet. And it’s easy. You sit behind a computer, no one sees you. You can be a nerd or a jerk, nobody cares.
What’s the fastest way to make money? Joe buys a book teaching him about the secrets of the dotcom era, learns about funnels, and finds a quick product he can dropship, and gets going. He follows the “secrets” to the letter. He meticulously spends time setting up offers and hooks, to trick his customers, and just get the money fast. After all, he deserves it.
He amps up the pressure, uses fake limited time countdown timers, guarantees, and everything it takes to score the sale. His focus is to PUSH as many people as possible to buy, and make him rich in the process.
But, despite following the advice of the gurus, he comes short. Not once, but time and time again. He can barely make enough to survive. He’s always fighting an uphill battle, always looking for the next niche, for the next biggest product, for the next shiny opportunity.
Joe is broke, frustrated, and determined to get money. He believes 100% that it is possible to get that money by convincing people to hand it to him. Afterall, it is possible to convince anyone to do anything, and that’s what he needs to learn. Even though he hasn’t learned it yet. Maybe the next guru will show him how.
On the other hand, here’s Andy: He Is Making A 6-Figure Income With Funnels (NOT referring to our @Andy Black lol, though I’m sure he is very successful with his funnels):
Andy used to work a job he hated. He used to be stuck with someone else designing his schedule and life. But not anymore. Andy ditched the script, and at first he was just like Joe.
He tried screwing people over and grabbing their money. But soon he reached a breaking point. He was fast running out of money, and would have to get a job again. In desperation, Andy realised that it was his own mindset that was holding him back.
He realised, that he was operating based on false assumptions. For example, he assumed that it was possible to TRICK people to give you their money. That you could convince people to do anything. But that was clearly false. It wasn’t working out for him.
So Andy decides to change his approach. He would no longer go after the fast buck. He would no longer use all the tactics that the gurus gave him, trying to trick as many people as possible for a buck.
Instead he realised that the only way to make money is to have other people give it to you. And other people, unless you rob them or force them to do otherwise, will only give it to you if you’re providing something that they VALUE, and if they TRUST you.
So based on his new mindset, Andy got to work. Instead of just PUSHING a product out there, Andy reached out to his market and uncovered a real problem.
Instead of asking to get paid right away, or using a lead magnet as a bait, he created a lead magnet that actually solved a pressing problem for his customers. Then he gave it away for free, and started running traffic to it.
Instead of amping up the PRESSURE to get the sale using the tactics he learned from the dotcom experts (limited time discounts, countdown timers, and all the rest), Andy focused on being upfront, honest and helpful to his prospects.
He focused on advising his clients instead. If they were better off without his service, he told them. He sent them to his competitors instead. He did whatever was in the best interest of his prospects, putting their interests ahead of his own. Every. Single. Time.
And they started to trust him. It wasn’t long before Andy uncovered more pain-points and started delivering solutions for them. People started buying, and lo and behold that Andy was now making MORE than a full time income with his funnel…
The Mindset Shift From Joe to Andy Is a PREREQUISITE To Succeed With Funnels
Conclusion: Be like Andy, not like Joe, if you want to succeed with funnels. This is a prerequisite to avoid the mistakes we mentioned above. Without this mindset shift, no amount of knowledge will help or save you. Not even this course.
Sales Funnels Are Alive
Because many people confuse sales funnels with the stuff that is built with Clickfunnels, and the stuff famous gurus teach you about, they think that sales funnels are passé. It used to be possible to make money with funnels, but not anymore.
Well, that’s not ENTIRELY true. Yes, it’s no longer possible to do a product launch funnel, and push people to buy through influencers, JVs, and high-pressure tactics like fake scarcity.
Yet, that’s not all that funnels are about. If you have a proper understanding of funnels, with the correct “Andy” Mindset, it is possible to make 6, 7 or even 8-figures and beyond.
How Far Can Sales Funnels Take You?
Pretty much as far as you want to go. Sales funnels are key whether you want to build a lifestyle “4-hour a week” business or a mega successful Fastlane business. They govern the mathematical principles that are behind your sales success, and an understanding of funnels shows you how you can actually improve your numbers and reach your goals.
In The Short Term (<3 months)
A better understanding of sales funnels will help you uncover areas of your business that you could improve to take your income to the next level. You’ll be better able to identify the limiting factors in your growth and identify strategies that could allow you to tackle them.
If you don’t yet have a business, a better understanding of sales funnels will help you see opportunities everywhere. You’ll discover new gaps in the market and ways that you can use to add value to fill them. And you’ll be able to start building a REAL, MARKET-BASED business around them.
It could even be the start of your Fastlane business.
In The Medium Term (6 months – 1 year)
You’ll be growing your income and perfecting your sales funnel using your newfound knowledge. You’ll be getting better results than you ever thought possible before, and you’ll have more ideas about growing your business than you ever had before.
You will start feeling confident that you understand the bedrock principles that determine everything else, and you will be well on your way to becoming the best in your chosen field.
In The Long Run (we’re all dead… just kidding – 1 year ++)
You’ll be able to make a very nice income, operating the kind of business system that is right for you. Some people may be satisfied with a lifestyle business that maximises their time, others will want to make the big bucks.
Regardless of what you want, you can get there with a solid understanding of sales funnels.
And here’s how…
Inside my agency, we have been perfecting what we call “funnelosophy” or rather the science of building high-converting funnels. As you saw from the above, funnels are complex systems. Even basic funnels, like the simple funnel a freelancer has is difficult to get your head around.
You don’t know how one change can affect the rest of the funnel. Luckily, we have discovered two foundational principles that can help you determine what you should do to perfect ALL parts of your funnel.
They are presented in full detail in my course.
But, basically, they are the Principle of Value & The Principle of Trust.
This forum has already been introduced to the Principle of Trust in this mega successful thread with 70+ likes here: You WON'T Make BIG MONEY Until You Understand This... Even If You're Providing Value
Succinctly put, The Principle of Value states that transactions only take place when prospects are aware of a problem, its painful consequences and a real solution to the problem.
The Principle of Trust states that if the prospect is aware of a problem and its consequences and is presented with a solution, then they will actually buy only if they TRUST that the solution presented will cure the pain and provide enough benefits to outweigh the pain associated with the solution itself.
The difference between successful funnels and unsuccessful ones can be found in how they treat the two principles. Funnels that use both principles make a lot of money, and those that ignore one, or God forbid, both, make little or no money.
And the difference can be HUGE. Just a tiny shift can cause drastically different results.
By taking BOTH principles into consideration when you decide what changes to make to your funnel, you will be guided towards making those changes which lead to better returns for both yourself and your clients.
The more value you offer your clients, the more value they will offer you in terms of money paid. Improving your sales funnel is improving the value you’re offering your customers and the trust you’re building with them.
Start Dominating Your Competition
As you improve your knowledge of funnels, you’ll also understand how to use your funnel as a weapon to crush your competition and dominate your industry. And I’m not kidding, that’s what you can actually do.
And here’s how. Once you have a solid knowledge of sales funnels, you’ll understand that your funnel’s frontend can operate at breakeven, or even at a loss. Your goal will be to onboard as many clients as possible, even if you’re losing money on them initially.
This is another principle you’ll learn about in the course. It is the 80/20 principle as applied to funnels. It states that 80% of your revenue will come from the bottom 20% of your funnel.
So acquiring customers at breakeven or even at a loss is entirely possible for you. Your competitors will not understand how it’s possible for you to pay 2x what they’re paying to acquire a single customer.
And the secret lies in Pareto’s Principle! By using it, you will be able to outcompete your competitors when it comes to acquiring customers which will result in your dominant position.
That’s what happens when you build sales funnels around the Principles of Funnelosophy. You crush the competition, delight your customers, and dominate your industry.
As mentioned in the first version, the course is aimed at entrepreneurs at the start of their journey who want to learn about sales funnels to get started in business, take their existing business to the next level, or uncover new opportunities.
Our purpose with the course is to provide the knowledge that you need to succeed affordably, and in the process clean the industry of the crooks who want to charge you exorbitant prices for access to the knowledge you need to succeed.

Who I Am And Why You Should Listen
If you don’t know already, I own a direct response agency called TANDA Copywriting, and we specialize in conversion rate optimization, building funnels, and generating traffic for funnels.
We’ve worked with e-com business owners (dropshippers, private label, etc.), info product businesses, coaches and consultants, and we’ve helped them structure sales funnels, drive traffic, and maximise their conversions. In the process we have helped people scale to 6 or 7 figures in income with their funnels alone.
Why Should You Care About Sales Funnels?
Everyone who is selling anything online has a sales funnel, which is the sales strategy that they use to gain new and repeat customers. A sales funnel is simply how you deliver the value you have to offer to your customers to gain maximum exposure as fast as possible.
If you don’t know how to build a sales funnel, you’ll have a hard time scaling your business and actually selling your product/service. Regardless of what business you’re in, having a thorough understanding of sales funnels and what makes them work can be the difference between making thousands and making millions.
I would say understanding sales funnels is the number one way to grow your income. And that’s true whether you’re just getting started or currently running a Fastlane business. My promise to you is that if you read to the end, you’ll very likely think the same.
What is a Sales Funnel?
It’s simply the system that is responsible for getting you new and repeat customers. In short, it is a money-making machine.
Sales Funnels Are Complex Systems
The first thing to understand about funnels is that they are complex systems. This means that they have many interrelated parts, and to get your entire funnel working like a well-oiled sales machine, you must optimize each part.
It also means that a sales funnel is more than the sum of its individual parts, and that your returns throughout the sales funnel compound. Say your funnel has 5 parts, and you increase the effectiveness of each part by 10%, the end result will be a 61% increase in your bottom line (not 50%).
Breaking Systems into Subsystems
Briefly speaking, each funnel can be broken into two sub systems. The frontend and the backend.
The frontend of the funnel represents that part of your sales process that is responsible for bringing new leads and prospects into your business. For some people, this may represent getting the customer to make the first purchase, or otherwise getting the customer’s email and other details for further contact.
The frontend has multiple sub systems itself. You have traffic generation, and you have the rest of the process that is required to take a customer from a lead to a prospect, and finally to a first-time customer. So the series of pages, webinars, lead magnets, ads and whatever else you use are part of your frontend.
Then you have the backend. It is responsible for building trust with your prospects, converting them into customers, getting referrals, and getting repeat buyers. Typically, your backend is formed of email marketing and the communication that goes on after your prospects or customers have given you permission to be in touch with them. The role of the backend is twofold.
The first is to act as a support for your frontend. One of its goals is to maximise the effectiveness of your frontend and its subsystems. Abandoned carts would be an example.
Second, your backend aims to build your relationship with your customers and move them all the way through your funnel, including getting repeat buyers, referrals and all the rest. This may require additional web pages and procedures.
A Very Simple Funnel for a Freelancer
A good way to think about sales funnels that shatters a lot of misconceptions is to take a simple funnel, break it down into its subsystems, see how it works, and see how improvements could help the individual.
So let’s take a freelancer who works as a web designer on Upwork. Intuitively, such a person does not think they have a funnel. They’re probably making most of the mistakes people make when thinking about funnels and losing a lot because of it.
It might be why they’re a $10-20/hr freelancer, and not pulling in with the big boys at $100/hr and above.
What is the ideal, most perfect situation for such a freelancer?
It consists in the following:
✔ Applying to jobs
✔ A high response rate to applications
✔ Getting a lot of invites from clients
✔ A high conversion rate once client has responded
✔ Consistently receiving great feedback
✔ Getting referrals
✔ Getting repeat business
That in a nutshell is what the freelancer wants his funnel to achieve. The first three components are covered by the frontend of the freelancer’s sales funnel, and the last four by their backend.
What does the frontend consist in?
The freelancer’s:
• Profile
• Application Procedure
• Search Engine Position
Each of these has multiple subsystems. The profile has the profile title, the description, the video, the freelancer’s photo, the skills they list and so on.
Each has different principles governing it. For example, the search engine position is largely determined by the velocity of work the freelancer can do. A large volume of work and successful jobs, means higher position in search results and more invites PRESUMING the freelancer’s profile is strong & appealing.
That’s why if you stop working for awhile on Upwork, you get no more invites. It’s also a way for Upwork to make sure you’re not stealing their clients off the platform.
The strength of the profile is governed by the freelancer’s unique value proposition, and their market positioning. How are they different than their competitors? Why should anyone do business with them?
Then we have the application procedure. What system does the freelancer have? How are they using the application procedure to provide value? Do they have a system to make applications daily? What guarantee does the freelancer give during the application process that makes the decision to work with them a “no-brainer”?
By identifying these components of the funnel, the freelancer can continuously work to improve all of them. And the results will compound. A 10% improvement in their profile and application procedure, will result by itself in an improvement in their search engine position, which will cause a mini spike in the demand for their services.
Results will NOT be linear. But it does take a consistent process of identifying the components of the sales funnel, and working continuously to improve them.
Creating a high-converting funnel is a PROCESS not an EVENT.
What about the backend?
Much like the freelancer’s frontend, the backend also consists in certain elements:
• Obtaining a Call/Discussion to Qualify the Buyer, Identify Needs & Convert Them
• Asking for Feedback
• Asking for Referrals
The freelancer will have Standard Procedures to handle asking for feedback and referrals. His work is to improve them – identify when they are working, and when they’re not, and always finding ways to make them better.
Discussing with the client is a critical aspect of the backend. The freelancer’s goal is NOT just to sell the client for maximum value possible upfront. It should rather be to qualify if they are the right kind of client (you don’t want to work with people who won’t treat you right for example), and then identify their needs.
This is super important, and here’s why.
They may need something different than what they’re asking for. It may be a possibility for the freelancer to upsell or cross-sell them to another service. And it lays the ground-work for getting repeat purchases by helping the client solve their REAL problem, whatever that is, which will likely take more than just one job to do.
The freelancer’s aim should be to become a CONSULTANT for the client, not a transactional deal, and the freelancer should refuse clients who are transactional because they are a one-time deal that prevents the freelancer from onboarding ideal clients.
Again, by understanding his funnel, and working to improve and maximise the value of each component, over time, the freelancer will literarily skyrocket his income, and become a $100+/hour worker in no time.
Not only will he understand the MATHEMATICAL CAUSES of his success, but he will become the very BEST in his chosen field, literarily LEADING the field because he understands the sales process better than his competitors, thus putting him in the position to provide the most value.
The Biggest Mistakes People Make With Sales Funnels
Many people ignore or misuse sales funnels because of these very common mistakes:
✖ Thinking that sales funnels are just the things you build using Clickfunnels or similar software;
✖ Thinking they don’t have, or don’t need, a sales funnel. Every successful business – whether a freelancer or a Fastlane type business - has a sales funnel, whether they know it or not;
✖ Thinking that they can make easy, plug and play money once their funnel is built. This is not how it goes, and it usually takes quite a bit of tinkering and optimizing;
✖ Thinking that having a funnel saves them from delivering real value and doing real worthwhile work for their clients;
✖ Thinking that a funnel is a way to TRICK clients, and cheat people out of their money. It’s not – it’s a method for delivering value, and if you have no value to offer, then you don’t have anything to use a sales funnel for;
✖ Not using their funnel to build trust with their prospects before asking for money;
✖ Not investing in the backend of their funnel. The backend is where MOST of the truly BIG results will come from, so a lot of money is left on the table by too much focus on the frontend and the apparently “easy” money that takes little work;
✖ Not breaking up their funnels into subsystems and then working to optimize each subsystem in the context of the whole;
✖ Not sticking with it long enough to do all the optimizations that are required;
✖ Using funnels as an EXCUSE for not being the absolute best in their chosen field.
Most of the people who fail at building successful funnels and making 100K-1Mil+ make one or more of the mistakes above.
And here’s the biggie. Just knowing those mistakes is NOT enough to avoid them.
Fortunately, there is a way to avoid them, but that means going to the root of the problem. It means uncovering the mindset that generates the type of belief-system that will fall headfirst into these mistakes even if the person knows them in advance.
We may think we know the mistakes, but if we have the wrong mindset, and the wrong belief system, then that system will create a cognitive blindspot, and in the heat of the moment, we will act as if we do NOT know the mistakes at all – and we will fail.
So let’s talk about that for a bit. We’ll make it easy to understand by building the portraits of the FAILURE mindset, and the SUCCESS mindset, and putting them next to each other.
In the process you will see how the characters’s underlying beliefs get them to make the WRONG choice and fall prey to the mistakes above even if they should have known better.
Here’s Joe: He Makes Many of The Mistakes Above & Builds Funnels That Nobody Buys From
Joe got into online marketing as a way to make more money, through whatever means possible. He hates the job he’s working, and he hates that he’s always been average. He’s always looking to make a buck, and every opportunity he gets he wants to get something out of it.
His biggest fear is remaining stuck in the same job, and he’s going to take any “opportunity” that promises to make him a quick extra buck. The more opportunities, the more likely he is to get lucky.
He’s a real go-getter and is determined to be rich. And yet, somehow he barely makes enough money every month. He’s sick and tired of working long hours, and is determined to STOP this. From now on he will make the “4-hour work week” a reality, work less, and make MORE.
So he jumps into online marketing. It looks promising, you can reach billions of people after all through the internet. And it’s easy. You sit behind a computer, no one sees you. You can be a nerd or a jerk, nobody cares.
What’s the fastest way to make money? Joe buys a book teaching him about the secrets of the dotcom era, learns about funnels, and finds a quick product he can dropship, and gets going. He follows the “secrets” to the letter. He meticulously spends time setting up offers and hooks, to trick his customers, and just get the money fast. After all, he deserves it.
He amps up the pressure, uses fake limited time countdown timers, guarantees, and everything it takes to score the sale. His focus is to PUSH as many people as possible to buy, and make him rich in the process.
But, despite following the advice of the gurus, he comes short. Not once, but time and time again. He can barely make enough to survive. He’s always fighting an uphill battle, always looking for the next niche, for the next biggest product, for the next shiny opportunity.
Joe is broke, frustrated, and determined to get money. He believes 100% that it is possible to get that money by convincing people to hand it to him. Afterall, it is possible to convince anyone to do anything, and that’s what he needs to learn. Even though he hasn’t learned it yet. Maybe the next guru will show him how.
On the other hand, here’s Andy: He Is Making A 6-Figure Income With Funnels (NOT referring to our @Andy Black lol, though I’m sure he is very successful with his funnels):
Andy used to work a job he hated. He used to be stuck with someone else designing his schedule and life. But not anymore. Andy ditched the script, and at first he was just like Joe.
He tried screwing people over and grabbing their money. But soon he reached a breaking point. He was fast running out of money, and would have to get a job again. In desperation, Andy realised that it was his own mindset that was holding him back.
He realised, that he was operating based on false assumptions. For example, he assumed that it was possible to TRICK people to give you their money. That you could convince people to do anything. But that was clearly false. It wasn’t working out for him.
So Andy decides to change his approach. He would no longer go after the fast buck. He would no longer use all the tactics that the gurus gave him, trying to trick as many people as possible for a buck.
Instead he realised that the only way to make money is to have other people give it to you. And other people, unless you rob them or force them to do otherwise, will only give it to you if you’re providing something that they VALUE, and if they TRUST you.
So based on his new mindset, Andy got to work. Instead of just PUSHING a product out there, Andy reached out to his market and uncovered a real problem.
Instead of asking to get paid right away, or using a lead magnet as a bait, he created a lead magnet that actually solved a pressing problem for his customers. Then he gave it away for free, and started running traffic to it.
Instead of amping up the PRESSURE to get the sale using the tactics he learned from the dotcom experts (limited time discounts, countdown timers, and all the rest), Andy focused on being upfront, honest and helpful to his prospects.
He focused on advising his clients instead. If they were better off without his service, he told them. He sent them to his competitors instead. He did whatever was in the best interest of his prospects, putting their interests ahead of his own. Every. Single. Time.
And they started to trust him. It wasn’t long before Andy uncovered more pain-points and started delivering solutions for them. People started buying, and lo and behold that Andy was now making MORE than a full time income with his funnel…
The Mindset Shift From Joe to Andy Is a PREREQUISITE To Succeed With Funnels
Conclusion: Be like Andy, not like Joe, if you want to succeed with funnels. This is a prerequisite to avoid the mistakes we mentioned above. Without this mindset shift, no amount of knowledge will help or save you. Not even this course.
Sales Funnels Are Alive
Because many people confuse sales funnels with the stuff that is built with Clickfunnels, and the stuff famous gurus teach you about, they think that sales funnels are passé. It used to be possible to make money with funnels, but not anymore.
Well, that’s not ENTIRELY true. Yes, it’s no longer possible to do a product launch funnel, and push people to buy through influencers, JVs, and high-pressure tactics like fake scarcity.
Yet, that’s not all that funnels are about. If you have a proper understanding of funnels, with the correct “Andy” Mindset, it is possible to make 6, 7 or even 8-figures and beyond.
How Far Can Sales Funnels Take You?
Pretty much as far as you want to go. Sales funnels are key whether you want to build a lifestyle “4-hour a week” business or a mega successful Fastlane business. They govern the mathematical principles that are behind your sales success, and an understanding of funnels shows you how you can actually improve your numbers and reach your goals.
In The Short Term (<3 months)
A better understanding of sales funnels will help you uncover areas of your business that you could improve to take your income to the next level. You’ll be better able to identify the limiting factors in your growth and identify strategies that could allow you to tackle them.
If you don’t yet have a business, a better understanding of sales funnels will help you see opportunities everywhere. You’ll discover new gaps in the market and ways that you can use to add value to fill them. And you’ll be able to start building a REAL, MARKET-BASED business around them.
It could even be the start of your Fastlane business.
In The Medium Term (6 months – 1 year)
You’ll be growing your income and perfecting your sales funnel using your newfound knowledge. You’ll be getting better results than you ever thought possible before, and you’ll have more ideas about growing your business than you ever had before.
You will start feeling confident that you understand the bedrock principles that determine everything else, and you will be well on your way to becoming the best in your chosen field.
In The Long Run (we’re all dead… just kidding – 1 year ++)
You’ll be able to make a very nice income, operating the kind of business system that is right for you. Some people may be satisfied with a lifestyle business that maximises their time, others will want to make the big bucks.
Regardless of what you want, you can get there with a solid understanding of sales funnels.
And here’s how…
Here’s How You Can Use Sales Funnels To Grow Your Sales & Fuel Your Business
Introducing Funnelosophy: The Science of Building High-Converting Sales Funnels
Introducing Funnelosophy: The Science of Building High-Converting Sales Funnels
Inside my agency, we have been perfecting what we call “funnelosophy” or rather the science of building high-converting funnels. As you saw from the above, funnels are complex systems. Even basic funnels, like the simple funnel a freelancer has is difficult to get your head around.
You don’t know how one change can affect the rest of the funnel. Luckily, we have discovered two foundational principles that can help you determine what you should do to perfect ALL parts of your funnel.
They are presented in full detail in my course.
But, basically, they are the Principle of Value & The Principle of Trust.
This forum has already been introduced to the Principle of Trust in this mega successful thread with 70+ likes here: You WON'T Make BIG MONEY Until You Understand This... Even If You're Providing Value
Succinctly put, The Principle of Value states that transactions only take place when prospects are aware of a problem, its painful consequences and a real solution to the problem.
The Principle of Trust states that if the prospect is aware of a problem and its consequences and is presented with a solution, then they will actually buy only if they TRUST that the solution presented will cure the pain and provide enough benefits to outweigh the pain associated with the solution itself.
The difference between successful funnels and unsuccessful ones can be found in how they treat the two principles. Funnels that use both principles make a lot of money, and those that ignore one, or God forbid, both, make little or no money.
And the difference can be HUGE. Just a tiny shift can cause drastically different results.
By taking BOTH principles into consideration when you decide what changes to make to your funnel, you will be guided towards making those changes which lead to better returns for both yourself and your clients.
The more value you offer your clients, the more value they will offer you in terms of money paid. Improving your sales funnel is improving the value you’re offering your customers and the trust you’re building with them.
Start Dominating Your Competition
As you improve your knowledge of funnels, you’ll also understand how to use your funnel as a weapon to crush your competition and dominate your industry. And I’m not kidding, that’s what you can actually do.
And here’s how. Once you have a solid knowledge of sales funnels, you’ll understand that your funnel’s frontend can operate at breakeven, or even at a loss. Your goal will be to onboard as many clients as possible, even if you’re losing money on them initially.
This is another principle you’ll learn about in the course. It is the 80/20 principle as applied to funnels. It states that 80% of your revenue will come from the bottom 20% of your funnel.
So acquiring customers at breakeven or even at a loss is entirely possible for you. Your competitors will not understand how it’s possible for you to pay 2x what they’re paying to acquire a single customer.
And the secret lies in Pareto’s Principle! By using it, you will be able to outcompete your competitors when it comes to acquiring customers which will result in your dominant position.
That’s what happens when you build sales funnels around the Principles of Funnelosophy. You crush the competition, delight your customers, and dominate your industry.
