1. Introduction: You have likely hear the expression that owning your own product is the key to making real online money. But the truth is that for a number of reasons. One of the key reasons why that's true is because if you own the product, you can create sales funnel that you can control and you profit from that 100 percent or whatever amount you choose. For example, if you don't own the product, then you cannot control the sales funnel. And you don't profit from any additional sales made for that. For now. It is not known fact that virtually every internet marketer makes most of his profits. Yet, the back-end sales funnel, not front and sales funnel. So in fact, some marketers are willing, willing to take a loss on the front of the funnel. And just to get new customers by employees and to help make profits from their affiliates so that they are willing to promote in the future. The real money is made on the back-end of the sales funnel because that's where the higher price offer is normally made. And then the creator of the funnels usually makes 50, up to 100 percent the sales of these up-sell offers. And it's no wonder why most. Internet Marketers make most of their revenues on one-time offers or yours. Therefore, if you want to make considerable money as an internet marketer, you have to have your own product and you have to control the sales funnel simply as it is. If you don't do that, you will likely never reach real the profit online as affiliate marketing limits you to wherever the product owner and the sales funnel creator. So you may be wondering how to about creating your own sales funnel. Fortunately, this course will help you to know exactly what are the sales funnels, how to create one, and how to maximize its potential. So you get the most profit possible from it. After this introduction, I'll be waiting for you in the course. Let's jump to the first lesson. 2. 1. Be In-charge of the Buying Process: Welcome to the first lesson. Be in charge of the buying process. As I have mentioned in the introduction. If you don't come up, with your own sales funnel. You are at the mercy of the one's who is making profits online. This is why most internet marketers say that you must sell your own digital products and essentially control the sales order reason to really profit online. Also, you need to control the sales funnel by creating your own digital product. And sudden, the final. When creating a sales funnel. You really are creating two or more offers. Since you need to be able to offer your bag or customer. Another author on top of the original or your main offer. This is usually considered as upsell or onetime offer, commonly referred to as audio. Whether it's now quite common to have a sales funnel where you have far more than just two offers. You can have anywhere from three to ten or more offers in one panel composed of upsells. So advanced on more sense that the more up-selling versions of the main product and down cells at the same time, advanced or more different versions or the main project, but not as as corresponding an absolute. There are really only two rules regarding sales funnel and corresponding upsells and down cells. So the onetime offers upstairs and downstairs relates to the main product, product offer in some way so that you add more value to the main product offer. Onetime offers are optional, but chases, and it's not necessary to enable the main product offer to fulfill the value it is supposed to as described in the product sales over you can create sales funnel composed of several different offer to enable you to earn profits. With each purchase. Not every customer who buys the main offer row by any of the cells, but it's likely some. Well, as it has been showing through research, that people are willing to buy, cross-sell, and up-sell right after the purchase domain of a. So this is the same buying principle that leads versions to buy price and a soft drink along with the hamburger. For example. The scholars that process sell or to buy a more advanced version of the word example gardening tool to get more value from it. The more people you can get to by your main author. The greater the chance that they will buy one or more of your onetime offers since they have already purchased. I mean, offer. This is especially true if you provide counsel to the corresponding upsell. And it's also been proven through research that if you present a similar offer to the previous offer for a lower price, consumers will purchase it, thinking that they are gay. They're getting a great deal. And this is all the more reasons why you need to take control of your sales funnel and started getting qualified traffic to it today. The sooner you start doing this dishonor, you will start building your online incomes. Not only the sales from your sales funnel, but also they're increasing, increased number of customers on your buyer list. So thank you for the first lesson. Let's go to our second lesson. 3. 2. It All Starts At The Squeeze Page: So welcome to the lesson too. And I called it. It all starts at the squeeze page. The very start your sales funnel needs. To begin with the squeeze page. Squeeze page is just the webpage that offers the visitor something of value, such as reported on a specific topic of interest in return, or persons contact information, usually the person's name and email address, it's enough. So the idea behind the squeeze page is the visitors to willingly give their name and email address so that you can follow up with them later with offer relevant and useful information so that you can build a relationship with them and show that you are an expert in this industry or in this niche. Once the person feels comfortable with your hand, feels, you know, this industry or niche, well, he or she will be more likely to purchase offers you recommended. So these authors should consist of your own products as well as affiliate offers that you Windows. Of course, as I mentioned before, the greatest online profits comes from products that you own yourself. So you really want your subscribers to become comfortable with you so that they will purchase the In your sales funnel. So this is where the bulk of your profits will come from. The, if you will, the relationship properly and don't abuse the address or the other time it's centered, it's really possible that they will purchase from you repeatedly. Whatever you offer, a product. The product that you're offering, elements to them. This is how you can build an online income over time. Therefore, we need the product that you can offer to your speech stage for your visitors 43, in order for them to be willing to give you their contact information. You can either create these products on your own, use to create it, or use private label products to create these offers. The main point is that the information must be valuable to the subscriber. And this quiz page must indicate exactly what the prospect will be getting when they submit their contact information. So therefore, if you plan to provide Committee report and or mini e-book or how to get more qualified traffic to your website. Your squeeze page minus indicates this. And your auto responder needs to set the link to download that report or send an email with a batch file. As soon as the subscriber has set their contact information. Now known as single opt-in or after the has confirmed that they want the report known as double opt-in. So if the information is valuable to the subscriber, he or she will be willing to give you their contact information if, if that sense they likely want. So the free gift must be something that had subscriber wants to find out about so that they will give you their contact. And also note that the information you provide is the free report. This report should be useful to the person, but it should not include everything about the topic or the question itself. If you include all the information in that free report, they will have no reason to buy any of your related offers, which is exactly meet the goal you have in mind for them actually, does. The free report needs to be useful and valuable. So where it gives them some insights into the problem or the issue they're having. But also indicates or implies that you have more valuable information for them to consider. And wiring by visiting your main products, sales speech. The billing, which you should be at the end of your free report, so that they can find out more about it and purchase it. Of course. So we finish this lesson. Let's go to another one. 4. 3. Present a Directly-Related PAID Product Deal: So welcome to the lesson. Present directly related paid product deal. After the subscriber hasn't bought their contact information into your squeeze page. They should be taken to a web page that states that free report they signed up for is on its way to their inbox. So this is the beginning of your relationship with this subscriber. You need to use good email marketing practices in order to build the relationship further. Convince the prospect that you are respected and knowledgeable person in your industry. That the prospect can trust you. The information you provide and the offers you present. Research has shown that it takes at least seven contexts with respect before she or he is willing to buy a paid offer. This means that you need to make a contact with that person at least seven times before you can reasonably expect the person to polish the buy button on your offer. Now, some aspects will be willing to purchase before Simon contents are made. Some will only be willing to do it after more than seven contexts are made with them. And some will not be willing to buy and just do it, right, depending upon the way of thinking and their situation. Awesome. Still, with virtually all sales that you make, good email marketing practices. The building the relationship, the key to making those sales. Expecting a prospect to just become a lifelong customer, overnight or after one or two e-mails, it's very unlikely actually. So therefore, if you need to provide more valuable information in your follow-up e-mails after we have downloaded your free report. So you need to follow up with them to ensure that they're getting the right additional information on the problem or issue. And gently heat that. The main product offer is your sales funnel is the key to solving the problem or issue in question. You also should let your e-mail subscribers know that you are available to answer any questions. They might hear about the issue. This certain problem. As this will encourage them to reach out to you for help or advice. So by offering advice and help, 43, this will further street in the idea that you are an expert in your field and that your paint main products offer will be even more helpful and useful to them. Then the free report, they belonged that already. So over time, through a quick email marketing, some of your prospects will be ready to go chase your main product offered. This is why it's vital that you put a link to your main product over in each email that you sent to them. Note though, that you should not sell it or aggressively promote your product in each for the e-mail that you sent. Rather, you should only cell in one or two e-mails, at most in all seven party meals sequence. So the other emails should just provide information on the problem or issue and some steps to help remedy the situation. Along with the link to your main product offer that you're nearing the end of the email. So most people are not found that hard selling or aggressively marketing products. This is why you cannot afford to do this. Too often in your emails or your risk losing the subscriber entirely. As it's likely, they will add up and subscribe using the link in the e-mail. So if this happens, you will likely lose the opportunity to connect with that subscriber and make them lifelong customer forever. You can not hard sell your main product author. So providing important information and helping to educate the prospect is key to convincing him that your main product offer it's worth purchasing. Once the prospects he has come to the realization that your main product offered it is worth or chasing. They will click on the link in the one here, emails and purchase your offer. The person has turned into a customer and enter into your sales funnel. Now, it's the time when your sales and all begins to work. Its magic. So we finish this lesson. Let's jump into another one. See you there. 5. 4. This is the Time to Slip in an Upsell or Downsell Offer: Welcome to the lesson. Because this time to slipping and uphill or downhill offered once the prospect has turned into a customer and purchase your main product offer. Vegas and your sales funnel. As I said, this means that you should be offering the customer an opportunity to upgrade their order. This is done through value enhancing the upsells that it's related to the main product offer just ordered. The upsell can be intense version that offers more information. If the main product offer was, let's say, an audio cores or, or e-book or video calls or more features. The main product offer was a software program, for example. So the upsell can also be related offer that provides additional value to the main offer itself. So for instance, rehab, your main product offer was a traffic generation course. So your upsell would be in email marketing course designed to improve the conversion rates or the traffic you get to your site. The main product offer. So the key with any upsell is to provide additional value to the main product offer that customer just purchased. The upsell should not be mandatory purchase in order for the main product offered to provide the value it was promised to deliver. That would not only be unethical also, but it will damage your reputation. Because menu consumers will look upon that as a marketing tactic because you weren't forthcoming in watch your main product offers needed in order to provide what you said. It would. Never make. Audios or upsells mandatory to purchase. The main product offer must provide the value it was entered to provide by itself. So all upsells and bowed down symbols must be optional. Never mandatory. The relevant upsell is valuable and enticing enough to the customer, taking into account the value and the price they will likely will chase it. Does increasing the amount of the profit you gain for this customer. So once they purchase the upsell, they can be taken to the downloads page to access both the main product offer and up-sell. Or they can be taken to other nullable up-sell offer related the main product offer. So if the customer decides to decline the offer, you can have funnel them, show the main page or the main product offered. So you can have the customer go to another app, so offer for them to consider. Or you can have the customer go to a modified version for the upsell. They just reject, usually for a lower price. This wonderful infection of the upsell is normally referred to as a dancer. Partly because the price is lower. And the often as the dancer has one or more elements missing from it that we're in corresponding upsell. So also note that all down cell can be the exact same upsell for a lower price. Although this is really the case. And the reason is why downscale is presented immediately after the upsell that was rejected is because research shows that many consumers don't want to miss out an offer and tidy. So if they get a second chance to pick up the same or similar author for a lower price, they will often jump at the chance to do so. This is why internet marketers often includes corresponding the guard cells with their upsells. So they have a greater chance of earning conversions and more money from their sales funnels. Most internet marketers will present a serious of upsells and down cells through their sales funnels and related to the main product offer and enhancing its value in some way. And some buyers of the main product of the row will not purchase any upsells or down sales. Offers. Offers will purchase one or more upsells, and others will purchase one or more downsides. So Kevin, combination of upsells and the down cells in your sales funnels will increase the chances for conversions and additional profits. It has been said before, most internet marketers make the bulk of their profits. On the back end of the funnel. I mean, upsells and the Councils, not from the front end of the funnel, not from the main product itself. 6. 5. Set Up Your Autoresponder Follow-Up Sequence: Welcome to this lesson. Set up your auto responder follow up sequence. As I mentioned earlier in my course, once the customer has downloaded your free report on the problem or issue from your squeeze page, you need to follow up with them and build the relationship. There should be a series of about seven follows up email messages, with the first one going out right after they sent his contact information or after the Confederate their contact information by clicking on confirmation if you use double opt-in. So the most convenient and easiest way to do this is to set up the email messages in your auto responder. That way, when the prospect completes the form or clicks on the confirmation link and in their email. So the most convenient and easiest way to do this is to set up the email messages in your auto responder. The way when the client completes the form or glyphs on the confirmation link, the email that I sent to him. The email messages will automatically be sent to them or with the peak period or these depending on when you schedule them to be sampled. That first e-mail message you should thank him for requesting the Board include the link to the loan debt free report. I mentioned that you will follow up with more relevant information and offers related to the problem or the topic or certain industry. And to provide your contact information so that they can get in touch with you. Because any questions related to the free report, the problem in just the one or anything else. In subsequent follow-up e-mails, you should look to build up the relationship by providing more valuable information regarding the problems, issues brought up. In the free e-mail report, along with information regarding remedies or solutions to that certain issue. Also you should you should also include a link to your main product offers sales pitch as the reference for them to consider checking out and purchasing to help them solve the problem or issue in more comprehensive manner. As I mentioned earlier in this course, you should not hard sell your main product offer in every follow-up e-mail that you sent. On average two out of seven emails you send should be hard sell. Often. The fourth email and send an e-mail that you sent to them. In these e-mails, you should discuss how your main product rectifies the problem or issue in a more comprehensive manner so that the problem or that issue is solved and the person doesn't have to deal with it anymore. So for instance, if the issue is getting enough quality traffic to one website, you can mention that your main product has many powerful vested ways to get quality traffic to one side. So much so that the person will never wonder how to get qualified traffic to their website. Again. As I mentioned, only two of the seven emails at smalls should really hard sell order aggressively promote your offer. As most people are not found of aggressive selling. So aggressively selling too often can turn the prospect away from becoming a paid customer and can even lead to them and subscribing from your list altogether, essentially, finishing the relationship and any of them becoming a paid customer in the future. Always focus on driving value in your follow-up emails. As this is the key of convincing your subscribers that your products are worth purchasing. They will think if the information there The is providing these emails and in the free report, is that good? Then the information they're providing is based in a paid product must be even better. I will go chasing. So the goal of formula e-mails is to make the subscriber more comfortable with the view and your expertise to the point where they will trust you and your recommendations leading to the eventual purchase of your product. So this, of course, will lead them entering your sales funnel consisting of several upsells and found cells, which can lead to multiple sales and profit. And this is how the best Internet Marketers make the vast majority of their income. And how they can live the internet lifestyle without having a traditional nine to five job. Which I think this is the main reason why you came to this course. So let's continue with other lessons. See you there. 7. 6. Performing Through Testing to Ensure that Your Funnel Works Perfectly: Welcome to the lesson, performing fruit testing to ensure that your funnel works perfectly. So a key mistake many new internet marketers make is not destined beer sales funnel to ensure that it works properly. So many of these smoke address will only find out that their sales funnels are not working as they should from customers or subscribers who are willing to best, I like the word that the sales funnel is. So while they may eventually find out that the sales funnel is broken and not working properly. At some point, those internet marketers who fail to test it ahead of time moves out all of those potential profits they could have had if they had just tested the funnel themselves ahead of time. So after all, they had virtually no chance of getting those customers back into the funnel. Especially if those offers are onetime offers. As those offers both blood cells and the cells are only supposed to be shown after the main product over is purchased. So after the customers exits the funnel, they essentially lose the chance to gain more profit from that certain customer. And in addition, those marketers may get a reputation for not being most provision or reliable in creating sales funnels and offers, which could damage their chances of working in profitable joint ventures, getting more customers and subscribers and so on, so on. In essence, it's not worth overlooking whatever your sales funnel is properly working or not. You need to test it ahead of time before launching your product offer. Does you should go through the ordering process to ensure that all parts of the sales funnels work as they should. This means that you should request the free report you offer on your squeeze page and ensure that you receive the report or linked to the lungs, the report and the follow-up e-mail sequence you created. This also means that you should purchase the main offer. Ensure you get the follow-up e-mail to download the main product. And also ensuring that you get sent to the first up-sell offer in your sales funnel. So now that most of the major sale platforms like click bang, JV, zoo, barrier. And so as one, provide an option to pay for 0 or $0.01 to test the product to ensure that it's working. You can and should test all aspects of your sales funnel first before you publish it and promote it to the public for purchase. So you should go through each uphill and downhill, but chasing them and ensuring the league you to the next offer in the sales funnel. You should also go through each author on the sales funnel and decline the offer. To ensure the phenomena takes you to the next appropriate offer in the funnel to ensure that every customer is presented the offers that you expect them to be offered much maximize the profit potential of each customer who goes through your sales funnel as well. So it was also not fair to ask other expedients internet marketers to test your sales funnel as well, just to ensure that it works for them as it should. And remember, your sales funnel elders at all while a customer is going fluid, you lost any chance of adding onto your profits from that customer would virtually no way of making up for that loss profit. So it never hurts to double and even triple check your sales funnel to ensure it's working properly. This includes the e-mails the head should be sent after the purchase is made. For each uphill and downhill where the funnel And sure that their sense that customers will not be upset over failing to get an e-mail with their product, download information in it. Let's jump into another lesson. 8. 7. Launch Your New Product: Welcome to the lesson, launch your new product. So once you have confirmed that your sales funnel is working properly as it should, and all relevant emails are sent the appropriate times for each purchase that it's made. It's time to launch your new product. This means that you should set all prices. The price points you have set for each offer through your sales funnel from 0 to $0.01. Used to testify. Now, once you have done that, you need to start promoting your product via e-mail, marketing or marketing or social media, your blog, your newsletter, advertising, joint ventures, and even more. You name it. The key is to get the word out about your new product and let the world know that the problem or issue they're dealing with can be effectively remains or sold by your product. Your product is the key to making their life less stressful and that is ready to be. So if you can't get any better than festers of your product, which is often a good idea to ensure that only the highest value is provided in solving the problem. And to ensure all mistakes or errors are eliminated and have received the testimonials for them. You can include them into your seals and the promotional material to help, to help convince people that your product is the real deal and it's solving the issues the ad facing. So testimonials are often in through menthol in getting people to order your product. As they can. Elevate people's doubts about whatever the product will really do, what is expected to do. And wherever you are really legitimate business person and one who can be trusted to provide wet ustedes. You will bribe. Does any testimonials from beta testers or owners of the previous versions, all the products should be used to help elevate people's fears and make them more likely to purchase your product offered. As time goes on, you should be using software tools to monitor how well you're over, are converting through your sales funnel. There are many software platforms that can provide this. Like Google Analytics provides a free way for you to accomplish this as well. So you need to know what parts of your funnel are converting well and which aren't doing as well in order to determine what offers are really doing well with your target market and your niche and which aren't. So that you can learn from those mistakes. And to ensure that future offers better meet the needs of your target market. You can really analyze the various aspects of your funnel to see whatever It's the offer itself, whatever is the main product offered, or any of the upsells or even down cells that it's underperforming. Or if the seals copy is not resonating with your target audience and convincing them of the value of your offer. Once you have launched your product, you will have much work to do in order to learn what aspects of the sales I working as well as expected and what parts are underperforming your expectations? And what parts are. This is how you can improve your sales funnel and make it more profitable, as well as create more profitable sales funnels for the future, product conscious for very beginning. And leading to greater profitability sooner in the near future. 9. Conclusion & Thank you: So welcome to the conclusion.

They will receive corresponding e-mails with links to Danone, each product they purchased. So if they choose not to purchase an upsell, they may be presented with the same offer, a lower price, or similar offer, lower, lower price, known as sounds. So this is done because many consumers will leave the chance to purchase an offer that they consider to be a better deal.
