Advantages of Creating Your Own Sales Funnels using Your Domain

Let's reiterate one more time WHY it is advantageous to use WordPress and create you own sales funnel:

(1) Ownership. You do not own the pages you create when you use a service such as LeadPages or Clickfunnels (check the fine print).

(2) SEO Concerns. The SEO that you spend time doing when you use such platforms is not helping you build your name nor brand, as it can be taken down at any time by the service, and all your work will be for nought...

(3) The Internet Is Forever. If you ever decide to leave that expensive service, the links and many posts that you have made using that old link live on across the internet. That means that you are chancing losing potential business in the future.

(4) Email Delivery. When you use the domain from one of these services to send your emails, the algorithms these days will evaluate the worthiness of that domain to figure out how to best deliver the email. You are missing out on a chance to build engagement of your domain.

(5) Cost. You will spend between $47 all the way up to $297 a month for a service like Clickfunnels or LeadPages. THAT is a lot of money.

I think there is more reasons you could come up with, but you get the idea...

What can you do with sales funnels anyway?

Use them for the following online activity:

(1) Lead Lists. Collect names and emails of targeted people that you can then build a relationship with and eventually sell or promote products to.

(2) Lead Magnets. Present your lead magnets in a manner designed to draw in a wide audience and narrow down that audience to ones that are definitely interested when they take advantage of the attractive giveaway you create.

(3) Sell Your Main Offer. You have a chance then also to present in a congruent manner a related offer at a reasonable price that these prospects are interested in. This generally is a low-cost front end offer. Think getting a customer and email, not making a lot of money for this one.

(4) Upsells. Once you have a buying customer, by using a sales funnel, you can link the buyer to another offer that is related that offers further value to them. This is generally also where you start to make a profit. Remember it is easier to get a sale from someone who has just purchased something from you and who has their card out anyway...

So now let's get started with the nuts and bolts of this training...

Here is what you need to get your own FREE sales funnels created on your WordPress site...

(1) Elementor Page Builder (free version)

(2) SumoMe for forms and email integration (free version)

(3) Icegram and Rainmaker forms plugins (free versions)

(4) Chatbox integration service (free tool)

(5) Yoast SEO Plugin (free version)

(6) Social Locker plugin (free version)

Right now you can download (1) Elementor, (2) SumoMe, Icegram and Rainmaker plugins, (3) Yoast SEO plugin, and the (4) Social Locker plugin...using the backend search window for adding plugins on your website...

The Collect dot chat plugin I will how you can get for your site as we go through the training...

That is pretty much all you need! Using these plugins and tools, you can create your very own sales funnels that are as effective as the very expensive services out there and you can get your funnels set up in the same amount of time with NO MONEY.

Add to that the free hosting you get with Wealthy Affiliate, and your big expense is a domain that you likely have anyway for your affiliate marketing business...You can see that this is a viable and desirable option?

In the next section we will start drilling down on what each of the plugins does and how to fit them together to start creating your funnels...

One thing you cant do with sumo is connect to your existing email service if you are a free member
Reply
DaveSw Premium
Yes, you may have to sign up for a free account with the ones they do connect with and then transfer the leads to your other account you have in place...I always look for a workaround...Will that work for you? : )

There are no free email services to sign up to through there you have to upgrade to do it, unless ive missed something

I just did some checking and you can download and add them leads manually to your service (I will change the training to reflect this)....My understanding was they did allow the connection but only with the Pro level service...Thanks for picking that up! Changing now! Dave : )

You betcha! Sorry about the autoresponder oversight, I did not realize that as a free member you have to export the leads...Cheers! Dave : )

This might help. I don't have signed up to an autoresponder because they all are not free but I have found last year this website and wrote a post about it here at WA.

This is spot-on what I need, Dave! I knew I needed a sales funnel when I joined WA to build the foundation for that funnel. I understand how powerful these funnels can be, as they almost sucked thousands of dollars out of me (MOBE and AWOL - good funnels, but bad deals IMHO...)

I've been building up my WA based funnel foundation here, and hovering on the brink of shelling out for ClickFunnels, so I'm totally ready for your training.

Many thanks for this - it is sorely needed here...

I am glad it will help you Steve and you are more than welcome!

We are getting ready for the end of year sales, and I just did not want to pay the 299 to ClickFunnels and be locked into what they dictate. This option is really much cheaper...

Do play with this and once you get the hang of it, you will see that it is just as fast. It is getting it set up that takes just a little time, but also not that long...

Let me know how it goes...

Cheers!
Dave : )

one more question, is Yoast better to use than the all in one SEO?
Reply
DaveSw Premium
Both are good from what I have seen. We use Yoast mostly on our Ecom websites especially, but I also use it on some IM sites. Both will work well...Cheers! Dave : )

But will they conflict with one another if i use yoast as well?

Hi Dave. Great training. I am in the process if building a membership site curtesy of some training by Chris Scott. Your training will compliment my new site nicely.

Good to hear and it will definitely save you a lot of money compared to the services out there. What you can build is every bit as good for zero dollars! Cheers! Dave : )
