Don’t Make This Newbie Mistake … Create a Marketing Funnel First

We’ve been online marketers for eight years.  Our story is most likely similar to yours.

When we first started, we didn’t realize what an emotional roller coaster ride it would be.

We knew we wanted to learn how to use the internet to build extra income … we knew that others were successful at doing this … we jumped in and got started, filled with anticipation and excitement.

Oh, so quickly we began to “pitch” our opportunities to everyone we knew and oh boy! Soon our families and friends would run away when they saw us coming.

Phooey!  Why is it when you are so sure this is something that everyone would want to do, it turns out no one is interested? Or very few at the least.

Here’s the issue:  98% of those new to the industry do not have a funnel set up and they enter the market SELLING.

They end up alienating everyone – family, friends, future customers.

And soon, they are discouraged, frustrated, exhausted and confused.

Here’s the solution:  Build your funnel first.

Here are the overall steps to building your funnel.

These are the basic steps to give you the big picture.

Each step builds on the previous one.

The timing is crucial and is what we teach, along with a multitude of marketing tips inside our private Facebook group.  (you become a member of our private group whenever you invest in any of the products listed on our “Products We Use” tab above.)

1.  CAPTURE LEADS via a compelling capture page

Offer something for free such as a free e-book or free training course in exchange for their email address.  Something that provides a solution to a problem people are experiencing and searching for answers to solve.

Every lead comes in at the top of the funnel through your free offer.

As the process continues, the leads (some, not all) will move to the next step, further down the funnel until they become your customers.

*Your capture page will need to be linked to an autoresponder which will allow you to develop an email campaign that runs on auto-pilot.  

Example of a free offer:

Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip_free-Ebook

2.  COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR LEADS

Now you are building your list and have the platform to communicate and share even more value with those who opt in.

Communicate with consistency.  Show up in their inbox every single day. Provide continuous content that teaches, inspires, motivates and gives your list a vision for what is possible for them.

Example of an email campaign:

31_Days_of_Marketing_Tips_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip_PLS_Autoresponder

 

3. ADD AN IRRESISTIBLE OFFER

The next step is to make an irresistible offer – one that will turn your leads into customers.  This could be an affiliate product or low-cost tool that is inexpensive, but highly valuable.

Example of an irresistible offer for $25:

Enviralizer_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip_Irresistible_Offer

4.  REPEAT STEP 2  

Consistency and value in their inbox every single day.  Plus your list into your training, conference calls, events, hangouts … keep providing value and training to serve them.

5. YOUR CORE PRODUCT

As mentioned earlier, each of these steps must flow from one into the next.

As your leads continue to receive your emails, those who make the decision to purchase the irresistible offer have moved further down the funnel and are closer to becoming lifetime customers.

You have built trust by providing exceptional value to your list.  Now you can provide a serious offer, your MLM, an expensive training or coaching program.

Example of a residual income opportunity:

Step 6:  Repeat Step 2 Again and Again and Again

Now you have turned leads in customers; you are building a team; you are changing lives, including yours!

Continue to teach, to inspire and motivate them.  As more irresistible offers and tools come to you and you see the value for your team – share them with your list.

We have been building our business for years, but a few misguided steps when we began caused the 8 year journey to success.

It doesn’t have to be that way for you, if you follow our training and set up your business the right way from the start.

The Naked Hippies Team is building and growing day by day.  We work together, we build together, we celebrate the successes of each member … and we support and educate those who started out just like we did … misguided and now stuck.

And now you know why we’re the NAKED Hippies … we strip down to the basics and remove all the unnecessary and limiting bulk that has held you back.  We help you build your funnel.

Get on our list … get to our trainings … chat with us on Facebook … hang out with the team for a while to see how we roll.  This is YOUR invitation to get in our funnel! http://youfoundus.nakedhippiesteam.com

See you on the inside!

Nature’s Way of Showing You … Sowing and Reaping Marketing Tips

Watch … observe…learn from Nature the law of
sowing and reaping in marketing.

It’s Nature’s way of revealing to you how the
whole marketing process to build your business
follows Nature’s way.

We spend a lot of our time in and around Yuma,
Arizona during the winter months.

Yuma County is third in the nation for vegetable
production. In fact, about 90 percent of all the leafy
vegetables grown in the U.S. from November through
March are grown in and around the Yuma area.

You can drive for miles in this area and get a first-hand
view of the lessons of sowing and reaping from nature to
help you as you develop your marketing skills.

Here is Nature’s Way and your way to market:

First step is to prepare the soil, the fertile ground.

 

Its_Natures_Way_Prepare_the_soil_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip

 

Marketing:  You prepare the soil – you build a list.
This is your fertile ground. This is where you plant the
seeds – your emails, your Facebook posts, your videos.


Next:  Nurture the crops so they begin to show growth.

Its_Natures_Way_Nurture_the_growth_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip

Marketing: Now you nurture your list.
You feed your list – fertilize them with hope and
belief of all that is possible.  As new prospects make the
decision to work directly with you, you provide support,
you lend a hand, you direct them to the next step.


Next:  Water the crops

Its_Natures_Way_Water_the_Field_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip

Marketing:  Now you provide in depth training; coaching,
events.  You share tips, tools and resources and
opportunities to quench their thirst for more knowledge
and to find the best path to create their desired outcome.


 

Next: Reap the Harvest

Marketing:  This is when your teammates begin to
produce results. When they start earning income, too.
This is when all the nurturing and training
and watering and feeding comes to fruition.


 

Next, you repeat the process again.

Marketing:  Because you are constantly building your list,
you always have a new fertile ground to begin the process
with a new crop. The growing season never ends!

The bonus now is that you have teammates who have
learned this process as well, so they are tending to their
own fertile soil (their lists) and following the steps of
sowing and reaping.

Prepare the soil.
Plant the seeds.
Nurture the growth.
Water the fields.
Reap the harvest.
Start a new crop.

Here’s to your most excellent harvest.
