066 - Paid Marketing Funnels for Course Creators - with John Ainsworth

SEOLeverage - The SEO Podcast for Online Business Owners

If you are just relying on the traffic that goes into your website for people to buy your course, most likely you are missing out on the big opportunity to convert the traffic into someone actually buying. To even bring them into your website and have them choose to buy it at a higher price is a slim chance.

You need to convert that traffic into new email subscribers and from there, people will know what they would gain or the logic into buying your product or course. And if you have a large following from the social media platforms where you are active, you would want to get more of those people into your email list, as well. An interesting conversation between Gert and John Ainsworth, a funnel expert, about how to 5x your conversion.
