Master A Funnel-Back To Basics

Many marketers are earning even more income than years before. But they've all had to first learn to get a system in place that allows them to capture leads and visitors.

I failed at marketing when starting out because I didn't know what was involved in promoting even a simple offer. No one told me I needed a system of pages that all worked together. I didn't know I needed a Squeeze or Landing page, a Thank You page and Bonus pages and then even an email sequence for 7 more days!

People assume that making money online is easy and that nothing is needed other than a website. But it is only how others have advertised to us making it sound like nothing much is needed. Which is completely incorrect. Lots of "What Works" is needed.

Internet Marketing takes a specialized "Skill Set". It's an ART FORM, if you will. Master it and you master huge incomes. Fail to grasp it and you fail completely at earning even a dime.

To make income from affiliate offers or even your own products, you first need a landing page where visitors can sign in. And also have a good reason why they should. If you skip this step, you just skipped the step that allows you to make money online. But, if you have a sign in form, or dozens...You will then grab traffic quickly and easily.

Thus capturing your visitors email address so you can connect with them through an automated sequence of emails. Or even schedules a phone call with you. But lets move on. Want an idea of what a bare minimum system or funnel, should look like? It should have 3 specifically created pages.

Without these pages, starting with a special squeeze page, or also called a landing page, you do not capture the visitors email address and cannot therefore contact them in the future explaining how great your program, offer or product really is.

The next page should be a thank you or bonus page they will access instantly after the sign in page, or landing page. This page gives them real value.

Then you instruct them to open the follow up email that has just been sent, where they will get the "Bacon" they've signed up for in the first place. Each page must give an action so as the visitor will know exactly what to do and expect. No vagueness here.

Ever heard that the money is in the list? Well yes, and no. You do need a list, but you first need to know what you are doing! Marketing basics are taught by many, but learned by few. And there are a few much better places to get this training then others.

People seem to skip these much needed basic steps and want to go right to putting a link that leads to their affiliate product offer. That does not work these days. Sending someone to a page that they've never seen or heard of is like guiding someone into a dead end. Fast.

Many fail online due to not knowing the basics or how important having a system, "Funnel" really is. A system or funnel set up which takes their new visitor through a set of pages which records saves and gives information they're looking for, enables them to receive exactly what they need. It's called fundamental marketing basics 101.

Sure everyone wants to just make money online. But if you do not have pages which are set up before hand--which help your visitor understand that they need to take certain actions--Then you never get your visitor on board in the first place. Leaving them to wonder off.

Start by learning the basics of how pages, and a working funnel takes your visitors through a certain set of required action steps, designed to inform and help and give value. This is the ABC's of Internet Marketing basics which are needed long before money will be made online.
