1.

Soft furniture socks to prevent your tables and chairs from scratching up the hardwood floors.


Amazon

Promising review: “These ‘socks’ are finally what I’ve been looking for to protect our hardwood floors. Our chairs have decorative legs with acorn-shaped feet, and these things stay on! We tried stick-on pads — that would fall off almost immediately, as well as cork bottom cups that always fell off. I think we tried five different kinds altogether, and nothing. Until this. I’m ordering more for the rest of the chairs.” —Todd Oxenford

2.

A cascading wall organizer for sorting out the mess of papers that would otherwise be piling up on your desk.


Amazon

You can also fold it down and take it to go.

Promising review: “This is the most amazing invention ever. My husband and I got into a habit of piling up all our random papers in the kitchen on top of the microwave, and I was just SICK of it! Could never find anything and things would go missing. Once I set this up, it was a game changer. My kitchen mess is no longer! And I have not lost another field trip form and have a place for all those floating art projects, receipts, and pay stubs.” —Kirsten

3.

A TubShroom that’ll catch all your hairs while still allowing water to drain. No wonder more than 10,000 people swear by this lil’ gadget!


Amazon

I recently bought one of these and I can’t believe I’ve waited all these years! I used to have a traditional strainer that would block the water flow as soon as a few hairs got caught in it (and I would have to fish out a clump of hair every five minutes or so). No more! This gadget catches all the hairs (so you don’t end up with a clogged drain) and still allows the water to go down. I literally cannot stop talking about it.

Promising review: “I was skeptical about this little rubber strainer, but I needed something to save my drains from the piles of hair that fall out of my head. This thing is amazing! It fit into my standard drain perfectly, and I don’t think a single hair slipped by it. It was pretty gross to see how much hair I lost in just one shower, but it was comforting to know it wasn’t clogging my drain. Clean up is super easy, too. I just took a tissue and wiped it from top to bottom, grabbing all the hair as the soft rubber strainer released it all easily. Not a hair was caught in it. Best strainer I’ve ever had.” —Lawyer For Justice

Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in six colors). Also, check out the SinkShroom and the ShowerShroom.

4.

An overflow drain cover so you can enjoy a full bath without worry about losing precious water every second.


Amazon

Promising review: “Baths have changed for me forever now! I can actually FILL THE TUB and not hear that dreaded sound of half my water (and my expensive magnesium flakes, essential oils, organic bubble baths, and other fancy therapeutic ingredients) tragically vanishing down the drain. If you’re a larger person trying to fit in a smaller tub, especially, you know… THE STRUGGLE IS REAL. Now I can take more baths, enjoy more relaxing warm coziness… all because of this little bit of silicone!” —anonymous

Get it from Amazon for $8.99.

5.

A silicone holster to catch your hair straightener, if you have a tendency to accidentally leave it on.


Amazon

The silicone can withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees and can attach to any smooth, non-porous surface.

Promising review: “My wife left the hair straightener on and rushed to work, this plastic magnificent thing probably prevented a fire in our apartment. Even though it was very warm and hot, nothing burned, not even the plastic holder itself. It does what it’s supposed to do. It sticks and prevents fires from hair straighteners. Proved after sticking to the sink for over three to four months and not melting with a turned-on hair straightener inside from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.” —Emre

6.

Double shower hooks for anyone who’s ever lamented, “But why can’t I switch my curtain and liner separately?!”


Amazon

Promising review: “I’m so happy to no longer have to deal with the shower curtain or liner falling off of the hook. I love the fact that the double hook allows me to remove either the liner or shower curtain without the hassle of removing both. I don’t know why I waited so long to order these.” —Tanner L.

7.

Sock-pairing clips that’ll ensure single socks never get lost again in the Bermuda Triangle that is your dryer.


Amazon

Just clip your dirty socks onto this gadget, throw the entire thing into the washing machine, and all your socks will come out clean and in pairs!

Promising review: “These work. They are of good quality construction. I had a sock problem, and these have stopped the unexplained disappearance of socks. Obviously, the sock monster can’t swallow the Sock Dock full of socks, only single socks.” —A.D. Burnette

Get it from Amazon for $16 (available in five colors).

8.

An under-desk headphone mount because desk space is at a premium and your giant, over-ear headphones just don’t make the cut.


Amazon

This mount uses the same 3M adhesive as GoPro so it should be ultra secure.

Promising review: “A simple, elegant solution to keep your desktop free of its much needed real estate. My gaming headset takes up a lot of room, and it’s one of those things that is awkward to store without either a stand or a product like this.” —Hugh K.

Get it from Amazon for $11.95+ (available in two models).

9.

A fragrant, non-toxic candle to neutralize odors created by your animal companions. After you’re done with the candle, use the jar for stashing pet treats – it’s a win-win situation ~fur~ everyone!


Amazon

Each candle can burn for about 60–70 hours. They are made from 100% soy wax and are paraffin-, dye-, and allergen-free.

Promising review: “I just got the candle yesterday and have burned it twice, three hours each time. I had a guest today and the first thing she commented on was how nice my apartment smelled. The smell is not strong and that makes me happy because I really hate the overpowering smells of the popular deodorizers. I have a senior dog that cannot make it outside all the time. He uses pee pads and is really good about it, but after almost two years of this routine, I had begun to dread walking in the door after being out for awhile. This candle just makes the room smell fresh and that’s exactly what I wanted.” —Moldy in Maryland

10.

A mesh hammock for an easy way to keep your kiddo’s toys and stuffed animals off the floor. No need to install shelves!


amazon.com

Get it from Amazon for $14.98+ (available in two sizes and eight colors).

11.

Ceiling fan chain pulls that clearly indicate which one is for the light and which one is for the fan — no more guessing games!


amazon.com

Why they’re great: “Absolutely adorable! They add panache to the fan, and you never have to worry about which pull to choose. The set also makes it easier for me to reach them. They do not get in the way and are a sturdy fit into the original chain. Would highly recommend to anyone.” —Scholar Mama

Get them from Amazon for $6.99.

12.

An ice cube tray with a lid so you don’t have to play freezer Tetris every time you refill it. Plus, it’ll prevent the ice from tasting stale.


Amazon

Promising review: “I absolutely LOVE ice cubes in my drinks, and it’s so annoying to have ice cube problems. I really researched ice cube trays and read a lot of reviews until I found these trays. It’s so nice not to have to worry about spilling water just trying to get them in there. Also, they come out of the tray so easily! No more fighting to get the cubes out. These just kind of pop out when you press down on one side.” —Kalisa

Get it from Amazon for $9.99.

13.

A shower curtain with mesh pockets to keep your toiletries within reach and the bathtub rim clutter-free.


Amazon

It measures 70 inches x 72 inches. Check out our review of this mesh pocket shower curtain (#2 on the list)!

Promising review: “This liner may be the most useful product I’ve ever purchased! It allows you to organize all your various bath products in conveniently sized mesh pockets. The pockets are strong enough to hold full shampoo and conditioner bottles without tearing away from the liner. No more worries about cluttered edges causing things to fall off the sides of the bathtub. No more nasty soap scum from bars of soap resting on the edge of the tub. No more rust circles from cans of shaving cream. It’s brilliant!” —G. Allen

Get it from Amazon for $15. Or, check out a mesh organizer you can add on to your existing shower curtain.

14.

A pack of elastic fasteners as the ultimate solution for sheets that just won’t stay put.


Amazon

Promising review: “These sheet straps are the best purchase I have ever made. I bought a new bed and had to put a thick mattress protector on it for the warranty to remain active, so my sheets fit very snugly. I toss and turn a lot and my dog moves around a lot, so the sheets were always coming off the corner. I bought these, and it only took a couple minutes to put on. It’s been a week and my sheets have stayed in place. This was the perfect simple and cheap solution for a major annoyance.” —Shariece

15.

An electric egg cooker that’ll make breakfast for you while you get ready in the morning. You can expect perfectly done yolks every time!


Amazon

It can make hard-boiled eggs, soft-boiled eggs, poached eggs, scrambled eggs, and individual omelets.

Promising review: “I bought this egg cooker for the first time a year and a half ago, and it is awesome. I hate having a single-purpose appliance in my kitchen, but this is worth it. Making hard-boiled eggs was always hit or miss for me, even if it was timed perfectly. (I admit I forgot about the eggs more than once!) This cooker makes PERFECT eggs every single time, to the exact hardness I desire with no green ring on the yolk. Even better, the shell slides off without taking half the egg white with it! My favorite use is to pop some eggs in when I get home and prep a salad. By the time the salad is ready, the eggs are done. I can even leave the kitchen and still hear when they are done because of the buzzer. I’ve purchased five more of them for family for Christmas this year and can’t wait to get everyone on board the Dash Go Egg Cooker train!” —A. M. Hinshaw

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in four colors).

16.

A dishwasher magnet so you don’t have to wonder, “Are these dishes clean or no?”


Amazon

Just rotate it to switch the “status.”

Promising review: “I don’t know why it took me so long to buy this thing, but I’m glad that I finally did. Yes, to some it might be silly, but there are times when I forget or can’t tell whether my dishes and glassware are clean. This $3 magnetic sign saves me from washing the ‘dirty’ dishes another time.” —Colmac

Get it from Amazon for $5.82.

17.

A motion-sensor toilet light to make the ol’ porcelain throne feel like a state of the art piece of technology. No more bright overhead lights when you need to pee at 3 in the morning!


Amazon

This LED toilet light has 16 colors that can work on a rotation or as a solid color.

Promising review: “This seemingly silly little gadget has turned out to be great! The light level (brightness) can be dimmed down if desired, and the color can be set to whatever you want, but the bottom line is that you don’t need to turn on a bright overhead light (which wakes me up and makes me angry, not a good combination) when you need to go into the bathroom at night. Cleaning it is a breeze, too; what seems like it’s going to be a problem…isn’t. I can’t recommend this toilet night light highly enough, and I’m not ashamed to admit it. Could be on the gift list this December.” —Lee R. Gurr

Get it from Amazon for $9.99.

18.

A waterproof notepad for jotting down all your shower thoughts. You can finally shampoo in peace without worrying about forgetting those great ideas.


Amazon

It comes with a pencil. Check out another waterproof notebook you can bring on the go!

Promising review: “For someone with mild ADD or anxiety as I have, this was life-changing. It seems silly, but for anyone with a busy life or just stressed, this is one of the simplest, most valuable things I can think of. Beyond that, I have 5-starred it because I’ve had one for 18 months and can’t find any flaw or way the product can be improved. It’s simple and does what it’s supposed to. So why do I say life-changing? Rule number one when under stress is get things out of your head and captured somewhere so you can actually focus on whatever task might be at hand without worrying about forgetting. The shower was the one place I couldn’t capture anything and often where everything came to mind.” —Adrian J Gell

Get it from Amazon for $9.50.

19.

A foot hammock that’ll make working from home so much more enjoyable.


Amazon

It can be fastened on pretty much any kind of desk.

Promising review: “I am a gamer so I needed a good foot stool that doesn’t dig into my legs and feet. Works perfectly.” —Brandi Wooldridge

Get it from Amazon for $22.78.

20.

An adjustable measuring cup so you only have to wash and handle one tool instead of several. The rotating plunger can easily push out sticky ingredients like peanut butter or honey.


Amazon

It has a 2-cup capacity and is dishwasher-safe and BPA-free. The silicone disk inside acts as a squeegee and scrapes off any leftover residue. It also comes apart completely for thorough cleaning.

Promising review: “This is the greatest kitchen tool ever! I cook and bake often and was forever having to first dig for, then clean endless numbers of measuring cups; I actually had three sets. No more though. I just need this one extremely well made, adjustable measuring cup. It works perfectly for me for all kinds of things, such as flour, butter, syrups, dressings, oils, etc. If I am baking, I will first use it to measure the dry items. I then just wipe it out with a paper towel and measure out the butter, etc. This way involves less washing. The suction is as effective as day one, and the units of measure on it are clear and not at all faded.” —Gabriella W.

Get it from Amazon for $11.99.

21.

A couch coaster to keep a can of La Croix right next to you because the coffee table is a little too far, TBH.


Amazon

Promising review: “I don’t have room in my small living room for coffee or more than one small side table. But I want my guests to be able to have a place to put their beverage while they relax and sit on the couch. This is sturdy, stable, and washable and sits nicely on my couch arms. I bought two of these, one for each couch arm.” —Kar-Bear

Get it from Amazon for $25.

22.

An outlet shelf for a convenient place to rest your electric toothbrush and cellphone on while they’re charging.


Amazon

Promising review: “Gives me extra room in the bathroom! Perfect for charging my Clarisonic brush. The one in my bedroom has saved my phone from being stepped on in the middle of the night. Genius invention.” —BeeBerman

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three finishes and as a four-pack).

23.

A laundry basket that can fold flat for storage when it’s not in use.


Amazon

It measures 21.25 inches long x 13.25 inches wide x 18.5 inches high when opened and can carry two full loads of laundry at once.

Promising review: “I have a special needs child situation at home, and I legit have to wash a minimum of three loads of clothes every single day, often as many as six or seven in a day. I have had laundry hampers and laundry baskets coming out the wazoo forever! Bought five of these (three to start, two more when I got the first and fell in love). Now, in those super rare moments when all the laundry is washed, dried, folded, and put away, I just fold these back down like they were when they arrived, and they go under the corner of the bed or between the washer and dryer. In the event I need to fill with wet items, a tall kitchen garbage bag fits perfectly as a ‘liner’. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!” —BDR

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in four colors).

24.

A rechargeable wireless touch sensor lamp you can take anywhere light is needed, even if there’s no outlet in sight. It can be dimmed or turned off with a tap.


Amazon

It can stay on for up to 110 hours at minimum brightness. I swear by this lamp! My apartment is very old and doesn’t have that many outlets so I rely on two floor lamps for lighting. There are lots of dark corners where I need extra light, and this lil’ lantern seriously comes in handy. I use it as a night light, reading light, and table lamp — super versatile!

Promising review: “The power went out so I bought three to four of these for emergencies. Now, I use them every day. I loved them so much, I bought like 10 more to replace our nightstand lamps and to give them out as gifts. They are both functional and beautiful. I use them to walk around at night in the house without disturbing others to the bathroom or working late. I will also be taking them camping soon. It is dimmable, and bright enough to read or low enough to use as a night light. Having four completely lights up a whole room. The handle is brilliant. That is one of the best features.” —latte happy

Get it from Amazon for $32.99.

25.

An adorable wall-mount cloud magnetic to keep your keys organized and in one place. You’re much less likely to lose them this way.


amazon.com

Promising review: “One of the most useful purchases I’ve ever made on Amazon. I use it every single day to hang my keys. I’ve had it for at least half a year now. Hasn’t lost any magnetism.” —Makenah

Get it from Amazon for $9.98.

26.

A set of floating bookshelves for a simple yet stunning way to display your tomes.


Amazon

Promising review: “I cannot believe how awesome these bookshelves look in my room. With my classic leather bound books stacked neatly on top, these apparently floating books give the room a sense of charm and intrigue. I am so glad I got these shelves. They are easy to install and each can safely hold three of my large leather-bound books. They do not wobble or shake. They are very stout and sturdy, and I do not have any worries with the weight they bear. I am confident they will securely hold to the wall and keep my books (and sheetrock) unharmed. The metal is durable and long-lasting. So many of my friends and family have complimented these statement pieces and have gotten some of their own book collections.” —Burrells

Get it from Amazon for $10+ (available in two sizes and two colors).

27.

A hanging jewelry organizer so all your accessories are untangled, visible, and ready to wear. It’s perfect for anyone who doesn’t have enough room for an armoire or jewelry box.


amazon.com

This will fit over any standard hanger. One side has 32 clear pockets and the other side has 18 hooks and loops.

Promising review: “I needed something that would save me space but where I could still see all of my jewelry. These things are extremely durable. I bought two of them and have probably 50 or so necklaces on one side and maybe 30 pairs of earrings on the other side. There is not a single tear in it. In the other one, I keep nail polishes. It is very convenient because you can see all the colors, and it does not take up that much space.” —Nellie F.

Get it from Amazon for $7.49+ (available in three colors).

28.

A shower drink holder because enjoying a glass of wine (or a can of beer) while taking a bath is probably the most satisfying thing in the world.


Amazon

Promising review: “Such a simple idea, how is this just coming into my life now? I didn’t think showers could get any better, but now I have a brew/wine within reach at all times. Really helps take the edge off after a long day. The thing is way sturdier than you’d expect, I’ve tugged on it and it’s not going anywhere. A truly perfect product. This $13 piece of plastic is working as hard as my therapist and I stan.” —Steven

Get it from Amazon for $13.95 (available in six colors).

29.

A gadget to rest your detergent cup on — it’ll catch any drips and prevent a mess.


Amazon

Promising review: “I’ve only had this for a week, and I’m already wondering how I lived without it. Finally, a solution for less mess in the laundry room. No more messy detergent leaks, drips, or a cap covered in detergent. I would recommend this product to anyone; it’s a game-changer!” —makenna

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $17.76.

30.

A pack of motion-sensing LED lights for a cheap way to get fancy lighting. You don’t need to get professional installation — just stick them on.


Amazon

They’re battery-powered (three AAA batteries; not included) for cordless installation. They automatically turn on within 10 feet and automatically shut off after 15 seconds of no motion detected.

Promising review:Excellent unwired lights for places that would benefit from having lights but you don’t want the hassle and expense of hiring an electrician to do the wiring for the lights. I have four of these lights inside hallway shelves. This hallway gets a lot of foot traffic. In the evening, these lights get triggered on by a passerby by at least 20 times. I’ve had these lights for two whole months, and the original batteries are still good to go. Please be advised that these white lights are rather cool temperature lights. I would estimate around 5,000K. If you’re looking for something slightly warmer (i.e. slightly more yellow) then opt for the warm white version.” —H. Jonathan K. Park

Get them from Amazon: a six-pack for $21.99+ (available in four colors) or a three-pack for $13.99+ (available in two colors).

These are seriously more comfortable than my $100+ super cushy foam running shoes that I wear — WORE — every day. And they are suer cute too!

LeadPages vs ClickFunnels 2018: Winner, ClickFunnels

Things like building a website and creating an email opt in form were foreign, and without CSS or design knowledge, many of our very first site pages were bare bones – to say the least…

As LeadPages continued to expand by increasing their client-base and growing their team, they started adding to the many features and benefits available.

A couple of years into us using the software they launched LeadBoxes, a code builder that would allow you to insert a light box pop up within a page or post, like this:

This was incredible because it allowed for email opt in’s and conversions on your own website without your potential subscriber ever having to leave the page.

While LeadPages was getting the job done, we were ready to start customizing the look and feel of our funnels so that our opt in and landing pages didn’t look like every other opt in and landing page you see on the Internet.

After experiencing the backend of ClickFunnels thanks to their 2 week free trial and seeing the layout and organization capabilities – in addition to the tracking and page customization options – we were sold.

offers you tons of templates and recommendations for how to set up your pages, but it also lets you choose exactly how you want your page laid out and designed – without any knowledge of CSS or design.

What ClickFunnels offers us that LeadPages doesn’t is a higher level of organization and flexibility with the same ease-of-use. In addition, ClickFunnels has an affiliate platform, which is something we’ve been thinking about switching over for months now (we currently use Infusionsoft).

The purpose of this comparison is to help you understand the reasons why we chose ClickFunnels so that if you happen to be deciding which one is best for you, you can learn from our experiences over the past four years using both platforms.

If you’re reading this post, then you already know the importance of a platform; regardless of whether you’re creating a blog, a podcast, a video channel, a product, a service – anything – a platform is required.

How to Build a Sales Funnel That Converts

What Is a – A sales funnel is a system for turning regular ol’ people into raving fans who can’t wait to buy your product.

When I was trying to sell my iPhone apps, I had no system for capturing attention and making people fall in love with my products.

It was like shouting into a void: Selling my course was a different story. Thanks to the sales funnel I built, it looked like this:

By the time I was closing sales, every single one of those people had been through a series of stages designed to qualify them as prospects and warm them up to the sale.

Let’s talk about those.   Do a Google image search for “sales funnel” and you’ll get a bunch of diagrams .

Most of these make sense—your funnel starts by generating awareness for your product (or the problem it solves), then captures leads who are interested in a solution, guides them toward making a purchasing decision, and finally allows them to take action and buy.

By itself, that information is a little hard to take action on.

So let’s take a look at what you actually need to build at each stage in order to move people from one stage to the next.

Think of the awareness stage as the point where people first hear about your business or product. This usually happens when: Another website links to you Your business shows up in a search result on Google

People see an advertisement you create Someone mentions you on a podcast

A happy client tells other people how much they loved working with you

The bottom line is that awareness happens when you get your stuff in front of people in places where they hang out.

Once people become aware of your business, they have the option to express interest.

That might mean: Clicking on a link to your website from one of their favorite blogs Clicking an ad in their Facebook feed Checking out your Twitter page after someone retweets you Looking up your website after a friend tells them about it, Once someone enters the Interest stage, your goal should be to capture that interest by getting them to sign up for your email list.

That way, you have the ability to contact them in the future and continue nudging them through your funnel.

Your goal is to present interested prospects with a compelling offer that makes them decide whether they will become a customer or not.

Basically, this is your sales process, and there are tons of different ways to get here.

You might: Send them a series of emails designed to warm them up to the sale .

Send them to a long-form sales page that taps into their emotional needs and explains the benefits of your product .

Get them to register for a webinar where you pitch your product

Get them to book a phone call where you pitch your services .

The Action  happens once someone decides to purchase your product.

Think of it as the purchasing experience—the checkout page, ordering process, shopping cart, booking form, etc.

In each sales funnel stage, you should have two goals:

Identify the people who are ready to move to the next stage (and convince them to do so) Identify the people who are not ready to move to the next stage, so you can continue nurturing them until they are ready.

Before you start thinking about what you’ll need to create for each of the sales funnel stages, it’s important to answer questions:

What will my funnel sell?

What’s the best way to sell that product?

Where will my funnel get qualified traffic from?

There is basically an infinite number of things you can combine to create your funnel. Getting crystal clear on answers to these questions will help you dramatically simplify the process of figuring out what yours needs.

Let’s start with Question 1. For some, the answer to this question will be obvious. You have one product, you know people like it, you just want to sell more of it.

If that’s the case, awesome! Skip ahead to Question .

BUT…if you sell more than one product (or offer more than one service), it’s important to figure out exactly what you want your funnel to sell.

For example, if you’re a web designer, don’t just create a funnel built around a vague idea like “selling web design.

” Build a funnel designed to sell a specific service you offer.

Ask yourself questions like:

What’s my most popular service?

Which service do I enjoy doing the most?

Which service usually leads to lots of future work?

Which service is the easiest for me to sell to people?

If you’re selling a product instead of a service the questions might look like:

What’s my most popular product?

Which product usually leads to future purchases?

Which product is the easiest to sell?

Which products have the best margins?

For most businesses, your sales funnel should be designed to sell one thing.

However, there are exceptions. It probably wouldn’t make much sense, for example, for an online clothing store that sells 300 different products to make a sales funnel for each individual item.

But it would make sense to make one for a certain category of items.

Designing a sales funnel to sell more superhero t-shirts would be much easier (and likely more effective) than designing one to achieve a vague outcome like “sell more clothes.

Get specific! Every sales funnel builds up to a pitch, but that pitch can happen in a variety of different places/formats.

If you run an eCommerce store that sells t-shirts, the answer is probably pretty easy—people buy the shirt on the product pages in your online store.

If you sell high-end coaching services, you probably have the easiest time convincing people to buy in a high-touch setting like a phone call or a webinar.

If you sell software, people probably buy most frequently from your pricing page. If you sell a course, a long-form sales page might be the way to go.

Once you know the answer, the objective for your funnel becomes a little more clear: get qualified traffic to reach that sales mechanism.

Which brings us to Question 3.

When most people think about building their first funnel, they start thinking they have to go out and find a bunch of new traffic for it. Wrong! The best thing you can do is start with the traffic you already have.

Do you already have a website? Is it getting traffic? (It’s okay if it’s only a little bit.) Congrats! You already have people in the Interest stage of your funnel!

And congrats again if you’ve already gotten some of them to sign up for your email list—those interested prospects will be even better leads.

The best thing you can do is start building a funnel that will capture those interested people and move them along to the next stage.

When you’re first getting into building sales funnels, I almost always recommend starting with existing traffic sources like this. It’s the easiest way to get started and learn the process.

Think of your traffic options this way:

Existing web traffic Email list subscribers Generate new traffic organically through methods like SEO, guest posting, social media, etc.

Buy traffic with ads Partner with other people and get them to send you their traffic

There are more methods for finding qualified traffic for your funnel, but these are the main ones we’re going to discuss in the rest of this post.

Raise your hand if you have ever overcomplicated something? *raising my hand* Not too long ago, I was banging my head against the wall for 3 weeks straight trying to get a membership site for my company.

I was super pumped about it, but the technology side of it was a massive pain in the butt.

After spending more than 3 weeks trying to get the dumb thing up and running,

I took a step back and asked myself: “Self, how can you simplify this?” .. .

EPIPHANY!! . .. Instead of trying to go super fancy in the beginning I decided to make the entire membership site one page… I couldn’t figure out the payment system. So I made it free.

I couldn’t figure out a caching plugin conflict.

So I disabled it. I couldn’t decide on a design for my subpages.

So I got rid of the sub pages.

A couple hours after I made those decisions, the site was nearly done.

After 21 days of working on the site I had barely made progress.

After simplifying, it was ready to go the next day.

I would make it more fancy later.

For now, simple. Complicated has its place, but mostly it’s just a form of procrastination.

Sales funnels are the same way. You can make them infinitely complex. Upsells Downsells Cross sells Drip campaigns Or, you could just ask your customer to buy your product! Sometimes, you just need to simplify.

That’s why I want to show you a good mix of both simple and more complicated sales funnel templates below.

I’ve rated the degree of difficulty of each one on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the most difficult/time-intensive.

I’ve also included some prerequisites you should have before implementing each one. Let’s go.

Degree of Difficulty: 1 out of 5

Traffic Source: Any existing traffic your website is getting Buffer is a social media scheduling/calendar software tool with a popular blog that gets just over 750,000 readers each month.

They have a very simple call to action on the sidebar of their blog.

In fact, it’s the only thing on the sidebar at all.

It is also a sticky widget. So as you scroll down the page it goes with you.

The copy is plain and easy to understand: TRY. OUR. PRODUCT. By the time someone has clicked on a link to their blog, they’ve already moved from the Awareness stage to the Interest stage.

The sidebar widget captures that interest and moves them straight to the the Decision stage:

When you click through the blog widget you are sent directly to a signup page.

No drip email campaign or free download. Just their product. Nice and simple.

Tips: I would recommend that you make sure the language on the landing page directly coincides with the call to action that the user originated from.

In this example, it is slightly confusing.

The user clicks a link to “Sign up” but the landing page came to asks them to “Log In.” The basic formula here is incredibly simple and you can apply it in many different ways.

Buffer does two things: Creates content that attracts people interested in digital marketing

Gives them a clear, simple call to action If you want to create a sales funnel for a low-cost product.

This formula can work really well.

Since the price is low, people don’t need an email sequence or lengthy sales pitch to convert them into customers.

The product just needs to be relevant to the people whose interest you captured with content.

Your Action Steps for Implementing This Sales Funnel:

Identify the pages on your website that are already getting steady traffic.

This is as simple as opening Google Analytics and going to Behavior > Site Content > Landing Pages.

Place a call to action for your product on that page.

Create a simple page that allows people to sign up for / purchase that product.

Expected Results: In the past, we’ve seen email signup forms in the sidebar of our blog convert at around 10%.

Since signing up for a Buffer account is free, it’s fair to think they might have achieved a similar conversion rate.

However, if you want to direct visitors to a paid product from the sidebar, you can probably expect a lower conversion rate.

If you have an existing sales page, start by seeing what the current conversion rate is.

By adding a sidebar link to that page, you’re essentially just sending it more warm traffic, so it’s not unreasonable to assume the conversion rate would stay relatively similar (depending on its current primary sources of traffic).

Degree of Difficulty: 2 out of 5

Traffic Source: Your blog Ever seen a lead magnet offered at the bottom of a blog post? It usually goes like this: Someone reads your blog post, enjoys it, and is offered a high-quality downloadable resource in exchange for their email address.

It’s a nice way to use a blog to grow your email list. But it’s not the best way. A content upgrade is this strategy on steroids.

Instead of offering the same generic lead magnet on every blog post, a content upgrade is a lead magnet you create specifically for one blog post, and it’s 100% related to the topic of that post.

What You Need Know About Sales Funnel Management

                                                                       (Source: Julie Weishaar)

According to Stephen Esketzis before you even launch your , the number one priority you should focus on is building your customer avatar.

Finding out whom your ideal customer is that you want to sell to, is the key differentiator between building a sales funnel that converts, and one that doesn’t.

Sales funnel refers to the process that brings a customer from discovering your product or service to completing a purchase.

                                                                          (Source: Steve Patrizi)

This framework is useful because, by dissecting and better understanding the model, marketers and salespeople can more effectively map their strategies and influence outcomes.

Chances are, you’ve seen this theoretical construct depicted in any number of different ways.

The sales funnel definition and specifics can change quite a bit based on your source, and too many organizations have failed to clarify parameters internally.

A while back, Marketing Sherpa found that 68 percent of B2B organizations had not defined their own sales funnel.

“Funnels come in many forms. There are funnel cakes, those tasty deep-fried carnival treats sprinkled with sugar. There are funnel clouds — ominous precursors to tornados that reach down like tentacles from the sky. And then there are, of course, funnels themselves: tools used for guiding a liquid or substance into a small opening”.

 

We hear the term sales funnel thrown around often, but few can agree on the specifics of how it is comprised. It’s time to bring some clarity to the topic.

Source What is a Sales Funnel? Simplifying a Complex Subject | LinkedIn Sales Solutions

Jim Hopkins of Salesforce describes in detail how sales funnels is all about finding prospects who are ready to become paying customers in “Sales Funnel Management: Simplify By Cutting Steps, Not Corners”

According to Jim, Effective sales funnel management allows a company to optimize efficiency while reducing costs, in that it prevents time from being wasted on those prospects and leads that just aren’t quite ready to commit.

A sales funnel will also facilitate the tracking and gathering of important data, thanks to the well defined steps and levels within the funnel itself.

As a result, a prospect’s progress can easily be charted, and any problems or issues can be quickly localized, identified, and resolved.

This is done by following certain stages and steps, casting a wide net at the beginning, and slowly weeding out those who are unlikely to pay off, basically optimizing your sales funnel.

At the end of the funnel, your sales team is able to step in and focus their efforts only on those with the highest likelihood of completing a purchase.

“The sales funnel is basically nothing more than an attempt to visualize a concept in which qualified buyers are located and separated from the less-than qualified prospects around them”

When it comes to sales, success is all about finding prospects who are ready to become paying customers. Unfortunately, given the overall size of the potential customer pool, and the relative few prospects who are capable of completing the journey, it can be very difficult to identify the right people on which to focus your sales efforts. This is where the management of your sales funnel comes into play.

How To Build A High Quality Sales Funnel To Increase Conversion Rate

Raghav Haran of singlegrain shares the steps you need to build a high quality marketing in “Step by Step Guide: How to Build a High Quality Marketing Funnel”

” For example, a new entrepreneur might buy lists off the Internet and then just hand them over to his salespeople. But an experienced marketer would take a more systematic approach.”

That’s why the most experienced marketers use marketing funnels. A funnel is a system or a model that guides a prospect from first becoming aware of a company to eventually becoming a paying customer and, eventually, an advocate for your business.

How to Build a High Quality Marketing Funnel

 

What matters is that you have a logical marketing strategy that holds everything together — a strategy that shows you exactly how your latest white paper is going to help you convert more leads into customers or how getting on the newest social media platform is going to help increase your bottom line.

 

The truth is, you could be on every single social media platform, you could be spending loads of money in paid ads, you could be blogging, you could be doing everything that you’re “supposed” to be doing — and you still might not get any real ROI.

 

For a marketer, it can seem like there are a million different options when it comes to which marketing tactics you should be focusing on. It doesn’t help that everyone is telling you to focus on all of them.

Source Step by Step Guide: How to Build a High Quality Marketing Funnel

 

According to Neil Patel, A conversion funnel, or funnel, is the path that a prospect takes through your site that ultimately results in a conversion.

 

Let’s look at where customers are coming from. No matter how they get to you, as many as 73% of leads are not even ready to be sold to. Even from the pool that are qualified, half of them aren’t ready to buy. That puts the odds against you. right out of the gate.

 

But, therein lies your problem. Your customers aren’t some mass-produced assembly line commodity and that’s exactly how “lead generation” approaches them.

 

“Set-up-wise, that is. But, there’s more to conversion optimization than just page layout, form design and copywriting. In fact, very few companies even do this one marketing tactic, let alone do it right”.

 

You’ve got your content broken down into relevant areas that readers can easily scan and your offer is irresistible. Your form only asks for the bare necessities, yet you’re still not seeing the results that you want.

 

Ever feel like you’re doing everything you can to improve your conversion rate, but people just aren’t buying? You’re following all the best practices, like having a single call-to-action and using enough white space.

Source How to Build a Conversion Funnel That Will Triple Your Profits

Shane Barker a digital marketing consultant explains the 3 key components you need to consider when building a sales funnel in “sales-funnel-increase-conversions”

According to Shane Barker your ad promoted an offer, but the landing page isn’t displaying that offer. This means visitors will have to either search for the offer, or leave your website.

 

“If you don’t have a proper sales funnel in place, there will be no structure to how you manage your leads. You may be able to drive some traffic to your site. But once visitors land on your site, they’re not sure what to do next”.

 

A sales funnel is like a map that you design for potential customers to follow. It’s the path that you design for leads to take until they take a desired action. In other words, it’s the set of steps you lay out to acquire leads and convert them. A sales funnel can help you increase conversion rate because it allows you to cater to potential customers at every stage of the purchase process.

 

There may be some stages that aren’t necessary, or some components that you’re missing out on. In this post, you’re going to learn about the three key components of a sales funnel to increase conversion rate.

 

You’ve made several attempts to increase conversions and somehow, you’re not getting the desired results. Maybe you think you’ve tried everything possible to drive conversions on your site. But have you tried reassessing your sales funnel?

Conclusion

Remember that the conversion funnel is an ongoing cycle. The process is always shifting and your conversations with your customers are always evolving. What served their needs yesterday may not be adequate enough today.

if you plan to not only acquire new customers, but also retain existing ones, you need to include a plan for post-sale nurturing. You can basically add different components as long as they serve a purpose, but make sure these three essentials are part of your sales funnel.

By creating a high-quality funnel to guide prospects through the process of becoming paying customers, you can systematically skyrocket your business in a way that you couldn’t if you were just trying random tactics.

It’s your deep-rooted beliefs that will help you succeed at generating any amount of money. Nothing else. Without that belief, you’ll falter and you’ll fail.”

I do agree, if you do not believe in yourself  absolutely no one will . It takes discipline, belief, commitment, confidence and persistence to succeed at generating any amount of money online.

“Anyone who’s serious about serious about creating a real income on the internet (whether active or passive) can do it. But there’s something relatively important that you have to realize about succeeding in an endeavor that so many people are clamoring to get a grasp on. Three things currently separate you from making the amount of money that you dream of or potentially replacing your full-time income with the ability to generate that same amount (if not more) on the internet.”

10 Proven Ways To Make Money Online

From Robert’s explanation, the three things that currently separate you from making the amount of money online are:

1-The ability to have a targeted message that is communicated to the right audience.

2-You need to know where traffic will be coming from by using the right .

3- No matter what you are selling you need to know how to convert you prospects into buyers

Where you live does not affect your ability to make money online, reason why you should eliminate all  excuses and commit to mastery, persistence and perseverance.

Sometimes I do think making money online seems easy, especially the way online marketers portray it. However I do notice it takes patience, perseverance, commitment, willingness to continue to learn, test and find what works for you by modelling successful online marketers who are already generating income online.

Some proven ways according to Robert are :

  • Building Sales Funnel  using Clickfunnels
  • Setting up an ad agency
  • Starting a social media marketing is another way to make money
  • By writing ebooks and publishing them on Amazon’s publishing platforms, kindle direct publishing

The truth is that it’s a dream that lives on in the hearts and minds of people near and far.

 

 

Ways to Increase Landing Page Conversion rate

 

Robert Kanaat of shares the ways to ensure your landing pages are converting in “6 Ways to Increase Landing Page Conversions”

Clearly, there’s loads of psychology at work here. Understanding that will make a remarkable difference in your business. But you’ll also need landing page software to implement what you learn here. Now, whether you’re using ClickFunnels or any other landing page builder out there, having a tool to quickly build out your entire and make changes on the fly is a necessity, not an option. Not many can do that. ClickFunnels can. But not many others.

 

Brunson describes it like this. They read each piece of information in both books, went and implemented it and didn’t start re-reading the section in the book they were in until it was done. That would take a few days, then they would move to the next piece of information, implement that, then continue reading it again. If that doesn’t inspire you to get out there and implement this stuff, not much would.

 

To break this down, we need to look at the psychology behind landing pages. Recently, I’ve been re-reading Brunson’s Expert Secrets. If you haven’t read it, do so immediately. That single piece of marketing gold could literally mean the difference between success and failure in your online marketing quest. In fact, two individuals who were struggling and broke not that long ago, took the information in both Dot Com Secrets and Expert Secrets, and turned it into a seven-figure-per-month business–Brandon and Kaitlin Poulin of Lady Boss Weight Loss.

 

So, how hard is it to build landing pages that convert? Or simply to increase conversions on existing landing pages? Is it really that complex or convoluted? Or, is it simple and straightforward? We’ve all watched people like Russell Brunson quickly build out a funnel in under an hour that goes on to become wildly profitable. But can anyone do it?  What’s the so-called secret sauce behind designing squeeze pages that draw in the visitors and get insane conversions?

 

There is one surefire way you can succeed in business in the long term. And that is to ensure that your landing pages are converting. If you can consistently spend $1 and make $2 or $5 or even $10 or more, then you have a profitable offer you can scale. However, when your landing pages aren’t converting, it’s like throwing money into a fire. It just keeps burning and burning and burning.
