Automation

  • Sales funnels are the processes that move people interacting with your business from click to the customer. Automating these funnels is a fundamental step not only in meeting your financial goals, but freeing you up to focus on what matters most in your life and career. It moves people through your sales and marketing funnels automatically. So all you have to do is set up the funnels, craft the content, and it’s all systems go.

Of course, in order for automation to actually work, you need to know what to automate, and how to make the content sparkle.

  • Email Marketing: While you can’t totally throw out ads and appeals to buy, you have to have an inbound content strategy to go with it. Draw your customers in with engaging, informative content that adds value to their life and their buying experience. Don’t be afraid to have fun, and find ways to personalize your communications whenever you can.
  • Workflows: If you don’t have solid workflows driving your sales and marketing funnels, your digital marketing can’t work at full capacity. You can create them yourself— or use software tools to help.
