What is a Sales Funnel and Why Do You Need It?

There is no doubt that owning and running your own successful online business can be a tremendously liberating thing, as thousands of online entrepreneurs and marketers all over the world have discovered for themselves.

If you are already in a position where your business is successful, then congratulations are undoubtedly in order.

However, here’s a question for you.

Although your business is already successful, perhaps even already achieving as much as you could ever have hoped for, is there any possibility that you could be doing things more effectively? Are there ‘flaws’ in your systems that are letting potential customers escape without putting their hand in the pocket to pull out their credit card?

Alternatively, you might just be starting out on the road to earning an online income, and if that’s the case, there is probably a great deal about internet marketing or online business that is confusing and apparently complex. Trust me, this is a position that even the most experienced of online marketers will understand because we have all been there and experienced exactly what you’re going through right this minute.

The problem with online marketing is that by the nature of the beast, there are dozens of new products hitting the market every week, and it is only natural that the creator of each of those products or services believes that they have just invented the best thing since sliced bread.

Quite naturally in most cases, the product creator has probably not achieved quite as much as they might believe they have. Nevertheless, the fact still remains that there is a mass of new information out there in the world of online marketing almost every day, an ‘information overload’ that can make getting your new online business off the ground seem dauntingly difficult.

But here is the most important thing. It does not have to be this way because running an online business does not have to be difficult or complex. It is simply a question of focusing on the key issues, ignoring information that is not directly related to the kind of business you plan to set up and run, and getting on with it.

This course is focused on one of the most important issues that any online marketer will ever face, which is a simple question of making your business as efficient as possible.

The more efficient your system is, the less it matters what kind of business you are running, because you will be maximizing your profits at every turn in any case.

It is entirely irrelevant whether you are selling the latest ‘super duper gizmo-style widget’ or a product that has been around for years, with an efficient sales system in place, you are naturally able to squeeze every last drop of profit out of whatever it is you do.

It should be obvious that this is extremely important, but you may never have considered exactly why it is so important. You are about to find out in the upcoming lessons! Stay tuned!
