This Is Why You Need A Sales Funnel Of Some Kind!
For those of you who’ve already been around the block once or twice. You’ve already discovered. no matter which paid, state of the art page builder you ultimately decide on.
You either have to write the persuasive sales copy yourself, correct? 😀 Or invest a fortune hiring, (or sometimes firing!) A or B list copy writers to do it for you. We’re talking online.
On the other hand. Offline, (initially anyway.) You and I don’t have to be nor hire A or B list copy writers to persuade, either your best customers or ideal prospects. To drag a friend with them to your store or showroom. Whose at least 18.
Before your X day expiration date window expires. 😀 Because a good ethical bribe or two will definitely do the trick.

In the very beginning stages of your offline sales funnel. Your persuasive copy writing might or could be. As simple as handing your ideal prospects or your best customers.
Who spent at least X. A sealed envelop. With the words “Thank You!” In big bold red letters. On the outside of the envelop. Entrepreneur, How long would it take you to rip open an envelop with that written on the outside of it? It’s not exactly high level, persuasive copy writing 101, is it?
But potentially effective as you want or need it to be, right? So their next action is doing X,Y or Z. And being further ethically bribed (rewarded!) for doing so.
