Thank you for this video!!! 2 weeks of awful weird funnel steps and I was literally in tears til I gave in. I loved designing websites a long time ago and thank you for reminding me how I don’t need this as much as a good website!
Thank you so much for this video!! I was starting down that "funnel" but thought that I could do this without using yet another piece of software. You have clarified for me what I had a nagging feeling about. Thanks again!
Good one Wes! What people don’t realize is that using Wordpress and elementor you can actually create a landing page that differentiates yourself from a typical click funnels page.
@@WesMcDowellInc Thank you so much for your video. Total mind shift for me. Also, I don't think those "salesy look" is good for a business, however, digital businesses swear by them. I don't personally like them.
Dude great video! I think funnels are just super hyped up right now with all the ads and because it’s just a “new way” and you know that most people just follow what everybody else does... I remember that the first time I went through a funnel I thought it was a scam right away hahaha I also think that if you are a famous person or highly known inside an industry, a funnel could be super effective to sell that one product, but for a small business that nobody knows, people might want to get more information about the company, for that they have to leave the funnel, go to Google and then will try to find your... (yes you guessed it right) WEBSITE! Hahaha or whatever else they can find on google like Yelp, social media and more. As long as you lead people to the right place on your website with your ads, to exactly what they were looking for and you make it easy for them to buy, that’s pretty good already (I recommend anyone to actually learn sales and buyers psychology). I would love to hear other people’s opinion about it too, please. But If I could only choose one thing between a website and a funnel, it would be a website for sure. (To me, a website is the ultimate funnel)
For some reasons, I've been struggling to trust the funnel building software ADs that I constantly get. They're too salesy and 'pushy'. I also didn't think I understood their uniqueness. Now I feel an 'understanding' - Thanks to this video, Wes. My objective is a long term thing - and I am ready to put in the work using my website. I can always learn from 'them' and see how their services can be injected in my website. Thank you, Wes McDowell.
This was really helpful Wes! I would like for people to download my free session of stress reduction music in exchange for their email adress. The follow up is the hardest part because when you're in stress reduction you want to be helpful and relaxed and can't be too salesy but on the other hand when they're buying new sessions it really helps them further. So that's where my challenge lies. Do you have any tips or planning new videos that go a bit more in depth strategically concerning following up in automated emails?
What I have done is I have created a google form which is basically an order form for my products. Run an ad of traffic and pasted the order form link on the website option. Results are incredible but I want to know will it work in the long term?
I've honestly never heard of that approach, if I'm being honest I don't know that I would feel comfortable placing an online order in such a manual way, but glad to hear its working for you!
OMGosh - I'm 63. Thank you. This website stuff us really holding me up somewhat. . How does convertkit work with a website anyways. Websites sound like so much high maintenance. b I have my youtube set up. There is always one more thing it seems. What are your thoughts on AI website builders? I am looking at Lleap and Pineapple but even those have terms I don't understand.
Great info! Didn't notice a tracking pixel integration with Click Funnels basic plan when looking on their site. I'd imagine they have that? If not, the decision to host on your own site becomes a no-brainer.
I need help with mine. I added my business phone number but the preview put out my personal number I used to sign up and I had no way of knowing how to change it.
It’s all about value. You can offer value in a funnel or a website. People are looking for answers, most people are not going to read your “about us” on your website. With a funnel you can still build a relationship with a potential customer by using an email funnel. I think a website vs funnel debate is pointless, what is most important is understanding your customer’s pain/problem and placing your company as the solution. How you do that is simply based on preference and what works for your business.
Sales funnels are great but I think if you only look at it as a webpage you miss the bigger picture. It’s more than just the page itself!! And to be honest I’m reeeeeeally not a fan of ClickFunnels haha.
This is the most complete explanation/guide I have ever watched. Thanks
Thanks for that! Gives me more inspiration to continue what I am doing!

That's wonderful to hear Lynn! 😀
Good one Wes! What people don’t realize is that using Wordpress and elementor you can actually create a landing page that differentiates yourself from a typical click funnels page.
Amen! People are starting to tire of those Clickfunnels pages for sure. They just do nothing for your credibility as an actual business.
@@WesMcDowellInc Amen to that!

Ur content is so non bullshit. Thank u
You're welcome Jay - thx! 😀 🙌
Wes...fabulous material. Thanks for doing this. I did notice the "Make It Real" sign change from "The Deep End." Is there a story there?
Thx Mike! Yep, I changed my business to more of a personal brand about a year ago.
Great content and very informative
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much Jody :)
What do you think about an app that keeps people involved on top of the website but always on their phone
Excellent . Thank you.🤩
Thanks for watching
Great Knowledge Shared! I'm a big advocate of creating a brand!
What I have done is I have created a google form which is basically an order form for my products. Run an ad of traffic and pasted the order form link on the website option. Results are incredible but I want to know will it work in the long term?
I've honestly never heard of that approach, if I'm being honest I don't know that I would feel comfortable placing an online order in such a manual way, but glad to hear its working for you!
It's a small investment to start an actual website, long term putting in the effort to build a brand is probably worthwhile!
Valuable stack of information 💖...
Is it possible that you can help understand the sales funnel in more depth???
Looking forward to it 🤗

Thank you :)
I haven't seen the vid yet but great subject

Not sure about the basic plan, but I'm sure they have pixel integration as a part of what they offer on at least the paid versions.
Incredible content. I believe what you do.
I appreciate that Fred!
I agree. Great video
Thx Daniele!
Awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it Mark! Thanks for watching!

Trent Kennelly So true Trent!
Me too. Clickfunnels is a rip off. You can make a funnel in wordpress
Love your vid’s but the editing on this one makes it hard to watch. All the cutting in and out
Noted!
Yeah I noticed that too
