WHAT ARE THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF A FUNNEL?

Hello everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker with today’s tips on FUNNELS. Most people really have no idea what a funnel is or what to choose as your business niche.

Here are some tips I found while looking for my business adventure. First and foremost, please research your niche. Find out what is working by looking at others in that niche.

Here are my simple tips for building your funnel. You should have a Pre Frame Bridge- a piece of content that makes people more receptive to the message on your landing page, How to qualify subscribers, how to qualify buyers, Identify buyers on fire.

1) Elements: The building blocks of your funnel are called elements. Things that you can possibly put on your pages like, videos, headlines, even countdown clocks.

2) Pages: It’s a bunch of elements put together in a specific order with the intent to get people to take a certain action. Give You Their Name, email, and telephone.

3) Funnels: They are a series of pages that have a strategic order. Your goal is to help your lead/customer on their journey. Help them go from prospect, then customer, then client.

So what is your niche? Health and wellness, weight loss, selling ebooks, free ebooks, education, baby items, high ticket sales… I hope you see there are many niches.

Do you like quizzes, writing articles, presenting the news, writing blogs, making videos? All these can be put on your pages.

Elements are like the ingredients you would put in your cooking recipe. Each one by its self is incomplete, but put all together they make a whole meal.

Here are some Attention- Getting Headlines:

When writing your message, PLEASE keep your sentences and paragraphs short. When you want to make a point, you can use BOLD, underline, Or use italics.

Use a sense of mystery, keep your audience captivated. Use a sense of urgency. Make is so simple for the reader to follow and understand.

Make it where your BRIEF description gets them to “ask” more INFORMATION, PLEASE.

Here is my 2nd tip: Reverse squeeze page. Instead of curiosity, I make a video where I teach or train them on an explicit concept. Once the teaching is over, I invite them to opt-in on the form to get more information. Just for the record, I have not done a teaching as of this writing. I will create one so watch for it.

Have a THANK YOU page. I recommend a video of yourself, so people know who you are. This is branding of the best sort. People like knowing who they are talking to.

I hope this helps you to discover your adventurous side. Take action to research what will work best for you. Start today, you have nothing to lose.

Buried Alive?

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker. I began my online journey 5 years ago. I knew very little about business. The internet was for fun, looking up facts, watching You tube videos, searching for things to buy.

I saw an Affiliate marketing business-CLB which I put on my computer. Through the hustle and bustle of life, I totally forgot all about this business.

I looked at program after program. I tried a few not knowing what was really expected of me. I thought these programs were dead. It had no pulse, no heartbeat, so I buried these programs alive.

It was my lack of commitment, resources, and not understanding the program that I QUIT.

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/mountains/

Mountain, Volcano, Peak, Summit

I heard my mountain calling me to come FORWARD. There is life in the mountains, freshness, peace and tranquility. All that I needed was just a few steps away.

For me, remaining in the past, I saw no future. The Cloud of GOD was moving and I didn’t follow, missing the greatness of GOD.

By shear chance, I was looking through the files on my computer and saw this CLB program. I opened it. Read it carefully and really like what I saw.

I contacted the owner. We talked several times and I decided to upgrade the program. She had a special going at the time, which really worked for me.

I am just getting started and there is sunshine on the horizon, it’s shining bright upon my life. I’m making headway building my list. Sharing this opportunity and a number of others opportunities, all the while bringing new life into this business of mine.

If you were like me, seeing nothing going on in your business, thinking it was dead when it was really in a COMA. There was life just below the surface, but the vital signs were missed. TIME FOR THE FUNERAL. R.I.P. was my reply.

I tell myself don’t let the dust settle on my journey. Let the whirlwind blow across my life, making my business billow out from all sides.

Do I want success, greatness, accolades? Yes I do. I have found my life is UP TO ME. Yes, There can be people who help, guide, mentor, but if I don’t take action nothing will happen.

People are my business. I care for those put into my care. I share with them what I have learned so far. I say come closer for that hug, lean in for the ATTA boy/girl. Open up your heart to receive the love that you desire and I will pour it out just for YOU.

I tell myself, touch the world. It needs and wants love, mercy, grace, and MOST OF ALL LIFE. So I bring on my love, bring on my touch, bring on my heart.

I know what I’m good at and what I’m not. I’m making a stand for PEOPLE. All people. I don’t care what your background is, together let’s push FORWARD.

Let me stand with you on your journey, I’ll walk it with you and with all your friends and family.

Sunset, Men, Silhouettes, Helping

I am a part of the hope people long for. I don’t have to figure it all out, I must just GO FORWARD. We can learn as we go, seeing new things, hearing new sounds, WHAT SAY, YOU?

Today I speak LIFE OVER you, not death that surrounds you. I’m assigned to talk to you, so please make sure to answer your phone. It’s most likely in your hand anyway.

TODAY I STAND WITH YOU

DO YOU HAVE A MENTOR?

Hello Everyone Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today’s adventure is: Whom do you talk to that is helping your grow?

From helping you grow as a person, to help your business grow? I have found a great mentor in ROB GEHRING. I have known Rob for many years. He and I did business in the past.

When I decide to get serious with my online experience, Rob was there giving me tips and strategies. I would ask a question here and there.

Rob always responded kindly, yet challenged me to greater visions.

I try to do a weekly session with Rob. With over 21 years of full time Affiliate Marketing under his belt, he has valuable insight on what works and what doesn’t.

Rob is always coming up with new ways to help people. I take action and implement them ASAP. I’m beginning to see results which are super exciting.

Today he shared His A/B scripts with me. This is a role-playing scenario that helps you get out of your comfort zone.

One is for our primary business when talking to leads, the other is for those who are not quite sure about what business they want or need. Both help you engage with your leads.

It’s ok to have more than one mentor. I have two. The other is Janet Legere.

I love Janet’s simple approach to life, business, and friendships. Janet goes way beyond the boundaries of helping.

She helps you to think outside the box by pointing out certain details of your questions, then makes you figure out work will work for you while offering her expertise in the Affiliate Marketing Arena.

Both of my mentors have helped me grow. When I first started, I knew nothing about blogging. Now It’s one of my passions.

Learning marketing strategies, list building, correct ways to use viral mailers, recommendations on whom to use for solo ad providers, all the while making you feel that YOU can do it.

Being on the road full time as a driver definitely has its challenges. Some days I’m not able to get on the internet. I can make calls and text when I have time at least to stay in touch with my people.

I’m learning not to make excuses for my lack of time. We all have the same 24 hour period of time. What you do with it will tell in the end.

I had a challenging defining moment from Blain Jones-Co founder of Click Track Profit. He pointed out: your posts average less than 20CTP in earnings each. I would look at ways to earn a bit more with them.

There are plenty of people making 100+ CTP on their posts. Looking at your posts it looks like a lot of them are exaggerated calls to action. These kinds of posts don’t really get engagement or response. It would be more effective to tell your story than selling financial freedom that you have yet to achieve.

This is hard to swallow at first. I thought I was putting real thought to engaging questions for people to answer. I thought I was putting myself into my stories.

Creating new stories takes time and effort. How do you engage people to financial freedom? I have a lot more to learn, so begins a new chapter .

IS YOUR GREYHOUND IN THE RACE?

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today’s topic is really about business, so follow along and ENJOY the read.

Newborn, Puppy, Cute, Mammal, Baby

So you decided to get a puppy. You did the research and found the one for you. You looked at the setters, spaniels, terriers, wolfhounds, chihuahuas, dachshunds. You had your heart set, so you bought the greyhound.

From the beginning you feed and watered the puppy. Exercised the puppy. When the puppy was a little older, you went for some training.

You took your puppy where he could run and before long you thought about racing your dog. Entrance fees, boarding fees, licenses were bought and the dog was registered with a proper name.

Dog, Canine, Race, Run, Running

Does this sound like your BUSINESS? Yes, I hope you did your research. Found the one that was right for you. HINT: CLICK HERE for mine.

I hope you invested in yourself. Your entrance fee is the package level you decide to come in at. You can buy a domain name, but not everyone does.

All of the TRAINING comes with your core package. We have weekly training live so make sure you show up. Building your list daily.

Here is a small list of our great training: Sales Funnel Optimization, High Ticket Sales, Homerun Copywriters Course, 10k Blueprint, and Bitcoin Breakthrough, are just a few.

You exercise your business through solo ads (UDIMI), virial mailers, traffic exchanges, social media. Think about where people are hanging out asking questions about BUSINESS. Give them a helping hand, yes, be the GO TO guy or gal.

Now it’s race day. You are in the starting lane. The gates open and you take off like a flash. You give it all you got. You are running for the win.

YOU cross the finish line a winner, making your 1st of many sales. You begin to reinvest in yourself, buying solo ads on a monthly basis. Getting your co-op shares. Your commissions start coming in regularly. Before you know it you QUIT YOUR JOB, because you are making more money from home than your job.

Making the right decision NOW is the place to start. Don’t listen to the naysayers, just because they think they know you. Listen to your leaders who are where you want to be. If they can do it, THERE is hope, you can do it.

NEVER EVER GIVE UP OR LOOK BACK. Keep moving forward. The books you read now and the leaders you hang out with will determine where you will be in 5 years.

In your business are you protecting your people? Do you have thick skin like armor to take the hits from the naysayers and keep going?

Are you moving yourself and your people to new places? Being a leader in anything in life takes commitment, dedication, and constant communication.

What commitments are you making when you take on a leadership role? Leadership is a decision. Leadership is an obligation.  Leadership is hard work. Leadership takes a community.

“You have to build a sense of community within your GROUP”.

You must nurture other leaders within you community.

“It’s human nature to avoid the hard stuff, but if you do, you weaken your community.”

“If you have the courage to tackle the hard stuff, you become stronger.”

FACT 1: Show Up Daily

Fact2: Put the word out. ( WHO YOU ARE) BRANDING

Fact 3: Work with those who have a desire similar to yours.

Fact4: Brainstorm with other leaders. Let those creative juices FLOW. Having a strong sounding board is valuable to all.

IS YOUR LIFE REALLY YOURS?

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker. The question above I have been asking myself for a period of time. This should be an easy question, the more I think about it the more complex it becomes.

I have a driving career, side hustle landscape jobs, then I have putting a lot of work into my AFFILIATE MARKETING.

I have great mentors, they inspire me to reach bigger and bigger goals.

People Working in front of the Computer

For me, my goals are small and steady. Driving takes most of my time. I really have to push myself to put time into my business. It’s way too easy to say I’m tired, don’t have time, no advertising time and the list could go on and on.

I truly enjoy writing Michael The traveling Trucker Blog. Bringing value to people is very important to me.

What is holding you back? I find I really need more people on my LIST. I do have a good start but I need more influx of people. The process from solo ads or co-op shares must be steady and on going.

Social media, traffic exchanges, and viral mailers need to be incorporated daily.

Running a business takes time, money, and effort. We have to step out of our comfort zones. Make those calls, follow up those emails and texts.

If people don’t respond after a period of time, MOVE ON. There is someone who really wants to change their financial circumstances. Work with them.

What are some of your GOALS? How can you improve them? Do you have a daily routine?

Do you make time for learning for self improvement? What books do you read, videos do you watch and people you hang out with?

When you decide to make your life your own, take out all the stops. Don’t let anything stop you. You are your own person. Everything you will ever need is already inside of you, LET IT OUT.

When you don’t know something, PLEASE ask for help. We in this business are here to support and help each other.

A few hints: write out your daily, weekly , monthly and yearly plans of action. Yes these are called GOALS. Take time daily for marking off your plans of action. It will give you a sense of purpose, a warm feeling, and Hey I Got These Done.

It will take time to build so don’t be in a hurry. Build everyday, fund your business monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly. Remember, the more you do, the bigger it will get.

Building your list. It’s a numbers game. The more people you have to work with the better. My mentor adds people to her list daily, weekly, and monthly. There is a variety of things done to produce the results she is looking for.

From changing up her Lead Capture page-(update regularly) for variety is the spice of life. Solo ads-Udimi, bought at the beginning of each month. Viral mailers, social media. Co-op shares.

I FOLLOW THE LEADERS,WHY-THEY GET RESULTS.

Social Media, Facebook, Twitter

Being creative is fun, easy, and exciting. The more eyeballs that see your pages the better. Any good business spends money to promote what they want people to buy, but there is a process.

HOW TO PLANT YOUR GARDEN

Field, Cereals, Summer, Sun, Sunshine

When contemplating how much return you want from your harvest, you must look at how much seed are you going to plant? The more seed you plant the bigger the HARVEST.

Business is the same way. Planting as many seeds as possible is PARAMOUNT. What is your seed? LCP-Lead Capture Page. I personally use several different pages.

People don’t like seeing the same offer over and over. Be creative in your thinking process. Do tests to see what works best.

What is your offer? ANYONE?—– IT’S YOU. You are YOUR OFFER. If people don’t know you, do you really think they will buy from you? Brand yourself TO BE the go-to person. Let people know you can solve their problems.

Look at OUR leaders. Their success has come from years of building their lists, Watering those lists ( communicating) with people, and guiding them to the best offers. Putting more people on your list is the NUMBER 1 GOAL of any marketer, so be SMART. Add to YOUR list daily.

Top View of Green Field
Make Your Harvest Look Like This!

You water your seeds through viral mailers, Udimi solo ads, word of mouth, business cards, videos, and a host of other tools.

I CAN’T SAY THIS ENOUGH-BUILD YOUR LIST. No list, no money. You are here to make $$$$$$, RIGHT. Listen to your leaders.

Attend weekly webinars. Talk to your leaders, ask questions. Set up a one on one meeting to discuss your strategies . Using every advantage is not only smart but can be very PRODUCTIVE.

PLEASE follow up with your leads. This is the lifeblood of YOUR business, so don’t let one drop slip away.

I want everyone of you to have your dreams come true. Work hard daily, show up, do the work, follow up, advertise and then do it all over tomorrow.
