Day 9: How To Sell

Day 9

This 30-day series is a roadmap for you to create an online business by following the training in the One Funnel Away (OFA) Challenge from Russell Brunson and ClickFunnels. Make sure you are watching the training videos, and following Russell’s instructions. Use these pages to stay on track with the activities.

For many aspiring entrepreneurs, the dream of your own business, lifestyle freedom, financial independence, and doing work you love, begins and ends with making a sale.

It’s the part of the process that too many people are unable to complete, and with that…give up on their plans much, much too soon.

With an online business, your sale is made on your ‘landing page’ – the first page your dream customer sees when they click your link. This is where you make a first impression.

How many times have you clicked on someone’s landing page and been instantly turned off? Or disappointed? Or thrilled to have found exactly what you were looking for?

The Elements of a Great Sales Page

To make the page work, you need the right mix of emotion, logic, and fear to get your dream customers to act now.

This day is about learning how to do just that – create the sales copy that will turn curious online surfers into dream customers.

Although you will learn the strategy and tactics for great sales pages, understand that the process rarely works on the first effort. You have to keep adapting the message until people start responding. And when they do…you know you have delivered!

Day 9 Work Summary

  • Create the First Page of Your Funnel – the Sales Page. This is where you put the ‘Who What Why How’ video you created on Day 8. This page may take you some time to create, and it should. This page will be your image to the online world.

Additional: Every day in the challenge, there are additional videos with great information, it is recommended that you watch everything, and apply the teachings to your own work. The additional videos on this day are about writing the sales copy for the page.

This is critical information. Great sales copy sells! That’s been true since the beginning of marketing. The more you practice, the more you learn, but it’s important to have the strategies and techniques set first.

A word about costs…you can spend a little or a lot of money at different steps in the OFA process. For example, if you want to make a professional video and hire someone to film you, that’s going to cost you money. But if you use the tools you already have, like a smartphone and free software, you will spend nothing. So the costs are all estimates, based on the amount you would actually have to spend to finish OFA.
Using Click Funnels

OFA is built around using the ClickFunnels software to create your sales funnel. Technically, you can use any webpage software and link the pages together. But ClickFunnels is the only software that lets you manage all the pages together in one view.

The software also links the personal data that you gather from your customers. So if a sale is made on one page, the details link through to the next page…and so on. There are also other features that make it easy for customers to buy at a later date, without re-entering their information.

You can begin using ClickFunnels with a 14-day free trial.
