A lot of people forget that buying decisions are based on psychology. There’s an entire process, we go through to decide whether purchasing something will be a good decision for us or a bad one. When you understand that psychology, you can use it to sell better. You can use it to message more clearly.” – Liz Boer

What is a webinar?
A webinar is basically an online talk. You get on video and explain a certain topic giving tips and advice. Usually, you have to sign up with an email so you can be sent event reminders and follow up emails. Then at the end of the webinar, the host will share a paid option for getting more support on the topic they talked about.
Webinar Trainings are also great ways to build your email list full of qualified prospects, in fact a recent study reported that 20-40% of all webinar attendees turn into qualified leads. Maybe it is because 74% of consumers prefer learning by video than through reading text alone.
How do you automate a webinar?
Not all webinars are live. They can be pre-recorded and set up so participants can watch it at predetermined times (weekly or monthly) without you having to do anything. That means you don’t need to be there to host it, making it much more accessible for your audience and much less pressure for you. You’ve just got to set it up and put it on a recurring schedule so it’s available to sign up for around the clock.

What other content is involved?
While you can talk about your course in the free webinar, to make a good return your sales process shouldn’t end there. In fact, 80% of sales need 5 follow ups. That’s where your email sequence comes in. Follow up with everyone who has signed up for the webinar to make sure they’ve watched it and convince them of the benefits of joining your paid course.
Businesses use follow up emails all the time. They’re not as boring as they sound. The more you have fun with it, the more your audience will enjoy reading your emails.

I cover all the tech and strategies you need to make your evergreen funnel run smoothly.
What if you aren’t making sales?
Not everyone gets their sales funnel right the first time. That’s okay! If it isn’t your zone of genius, your evergreen funnel might need a bit of tweaking. The key is to find out where your leak is. Basically, where are leads leaving your funnel instead of converting? For example, there might be a point in your follow up email sequence where your open rate drops. Or maybe your landing page conversion rate is really low. That indicates that there’s something about that point of your funnel that isn’t hitting the mark. Each stage of your sales funnel needs to be optimized in order for you to get the results you want.
I know this can be tough to figure out alone. So I’ve decided to share what I’ve learned about effective sales automation in my brand new free webinar Secrets to Evergreen Funnels. I’ll show you how to build a 6 figure automated webinar funnel that works for both offers under $3k and higher-end offers that require a sales call. And this is where I share secrets like what time-sensitive offers work and which ones to avoid.
