If your business doesn’t have a clear, step-by-step process for turning curious consumers into paying customers, you could be losing revenue in missed opportunities. Fortunately, marketing whiz Russell Brunson provides expert advice in this week’s episode on capturing leads through the use of sales funnels and storytelling.
Taking an early interest to marketing, Brunson has become an evangelist for sales funnels and the ability to fuel rapid business growth. His company, ClickFunnels, has helped 43,000 entrepreneurs build effective sales funnels and landing pages that attract more customers for their web-based business. ClickFunnels is on track to earn $70 million this year and is one of the several highly successful startups based in Boise, Idaho, that are putting the city on the tech map nationally.
Brunson has authored two books and boasts an expertise in the critical role storytelling plays in marketing and sales. In our interview, he explains his tested and proven method for engaging audiences with the “epiphany bridge” script, recounts how ClickFunnels evolved into the high-selling SaaS product it is today and shares an underutilized sales funnel strategy that could revolutionize the way software companies market their products.

I’ll also be giving away a free copy of his latest book, Expert Secrets, to one lucky listener.
