Choosing any of the above niches guarantees traffic explosion. These are niches many people are looking to buy products. If you are not already in any of these niches, you want to do that right now and complete the first task in building a sales funnel.
 
2. Decide your product/service

You are what you think; your niche determines your product. Think of what to sell to the soon to be traffic. What will that be? Whether you sell offline or online, your profit is determined by how creative you are with your sales funnel, so learn to think out of the box. You have different approaches to choose and price your product/service correctly. You can decide on membership product with entry price set low and charge more for premium services.

3. Choose your sales funnel design

Sales funnel that converts like crazy should be well laid-out. Different types of funnels are listed below that you can choose for best outcome:
• Video Series Funnel

Once you are better in the trick, your design will join the list soon, trust me. Each funnel type works best according to niche and product/service. The secret is tweaking for best results. The better you get at tweaking, the more sales you will make. But there is no smoke without fire, right? The fire for your sales funnel includes Headlines, Tracking, Split Tests, and Ad Creative and so on. After building the framework for your sales funnel, it’s time for item 4 below.

4. Begin with a converting funnel

Time to light the fire! Start by testing the water for the best result. Hey, hey, hey, don’t just start spending money on advertising right away; it’s time to spy on your competitors. See how they manage their sales funnel without losing money.You can spy and hack your competitor sales funnel for insight on what works. Find out what landing page, ads, and keywords they are using right now. Check what spending pattern and duration of expenses they undertake. Such information gives you a clear direction on what to do with your funnel. You can do this by pretending to be a customer and buy from your competitor to understand their sales process and various tools used. The right information gives you a better direction to repeat what works to design a fail-proof sales funnel for your business.

5. Tweak, Test and make money

Congratulations! Now that you know what works it’s time to start tweaking testing and rake in the profit. Not every great funnel works best the first time; testing and playing around with it are necessary to get it. Fine tuning is a continuous exercise as you are dealing with the market affected by different forces.
Remember the funnel fire? Things like the landing page, ad creative, ad copy, targeting, email sequence copy, sales copy, webinar pitch, and every part of your funnel must consistently come under split testing to know what works. Don’t throw in the towel! Not until your marketing efforts result in customers’ responses, your job continues and even when result starts coming, stick to what works and see your profit growing.
