Sales & Conversion
So if you haven't already guessed by now, every single marketing effort that we are investing in is trying to lead to a sale. Now, the reality is that a lot of founders and entrepreneurs just post a couple of times on social media and don't know why people are not going to their website to convert. And the reason being is they just haven't did it enough times and they don't have a structured strategy that we've been covering in this course to actually guide customers through their marketing funnel to eventually buying from them. Now, hopefully you can see now how having a structured and well thought out marketing funnel is so much better than just setting up a daft website and then posting a couple of pictures on Instagram. And that's why by following this course and actually thinking about the structure of your marketing funnel and how you can actually guide customers and nurture them through that process. You're going to put yourself ahead of 99.9 per cent of other small and medium s...
ized businesses out there. Now, the marketing efforts and tactics that we're just about to go through are all focused around sales activation and getting the sale. That's all it's focused on. We did all the hard work. We've got the awareness, we've educated our customers and now we need to sell to them. Now, one thing I do want to say, and please keep this in mind, these methods and tactics are extremely powerful. So please use them with care and please use them ethically and also make sure you use them in moderation, make sure you use them properly because if you just start throwing tons of discounts at customers, then ultimately, you're just going to be seen as a desperate brand and there's not going to be much desire to actually buy from you apart from just getting a great deal at a cheap price. So try and think about this stage of the marketing funnel as you've been dating someone for a little while and you're just waiting for the right moment to ask them to be your boyfriend or girlfriend. You've built up enough trust and you know that you're the right fit for each other, but you're just looking for the perfect opportunity. So at this stage, it's really important just to keep the ship steady and to slowly move towards commitment. It's always good to show that you're attentive and caring and you mean, well, don't go whipping out a wedding ring because that's going to spoil every. So just like before, make sure you choose between 1 to 3 of the tactics that we're about to go through and obviously you can experiment and swap and change them if you really want to. But once you decide on the tactics are best for your personal situation, make sure you fill in your brand guidelines, as I've mentioned before. You should be working through that as you progress through the course. And by the end of the course, you're going to have a fully fleshed out marketing plan that is going to be effective and that you most importantly are going to be confident in. Anyway, I cannot wait to start the section, so I will see you in the next lesson.
