Hero funnels are an amazing and smart way to promote your business. But, without adequate promotion, even the best funnel in the world may fail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We&#8217;re about to brainstorm 7 powerful ways to help promote your hero funnel even if your marketing budget isn&#8217;t the biggest in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7 Ways To Promote Your ClickFunnels Hero Funnel:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Within Your Digital Or Printed Book<\/li><li>Custom URL And Business Cards<\/li><li>Launch A Podcast<\/li><li>Launch A YouTube Channel<\/li><li>Launch An Amazing Blog Post<\/li><li>Within Your Social Media Profiles<\/li><li>Inside Of Your Digital Course<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong># 1 \u2013 Within Your Digital Or Printed Book<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I love the idea of promoting your hero funnel within different types of funnels. Promoting your hero funnel within your book funnel and to your existing readers seems like a genius idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your hero funnel is all about promoting yourself as an authority. They\u2019re great for showcasing your stories, your brands, and even your other books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since hero funnels present a wonderful opportunity for you to brand yourself, they make for excellent inserts (or calls to action) within your books. Whether you have digital or physical books, it\u2019s simple (and fun) to insert a call to action within your books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I challenge you to get creative. Imagine if your hero funnel was promoting your email newsletter or your upcoming webinar? I recommend that you try to use your hero funnel to build your email list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That way, you can promote awesome email newsletter content that can help to further introduce yourself to your readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong># 2 \u2013 Get A Custom Web Domain And Business Cards<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Business cards are perfect if you do a lot of leg work in your local community, or if you have local clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to go this route, it\u2019s essential that your hero funnel has a unique URL that looks professional and sleek. That way, when your prospects type in your new web domain they\u2019re automatically redirected to your hero funnel. Perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the things that I love about ClickFunnels, is that you can easily connect your funnel to a domain of your choosing. Why is this powerful? Because you can spend some time finding an amazing URL of your choice. Now you can easily promote your hero funnel to your prospects while branding yourself and sharing awesome content at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have a custom domain, it\u2019s easy to get a beautiful business card promoting your very short and sweet URL. That way, you can hand out your business card when you\u2019re at events or whenever you meet new colleagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can even slip your favorite clients a business card whenever you next meet. A hero funnel makes for a potentially amazing first impression, and they\u2019re also a nice personal touch for existing clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong># 3 \u2013 Launch A Podcast<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Podcasts must be one of the best ways for you to get the word out about your business these days. It seems like Podcasting keeps getting more and more popular. Podcasting is now the&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/bradadgate\/2019\/11\/18\/podcasting-is-going-mainstream\/#6dc8b6861699\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>mainstream.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cool thing about podcasting is that it\u2019s dirt cheap to start. You can find a reliable Podcast host for about $5-$15 per month. You can get a halfway decent microphone for about $50-$100 on Amazon. I use the Samson Go-Mic and the Blue Snowball. Both microphones rock and cost less than $100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;So, how can a Podcast help to promote your hero funnel or any marketing funnel? Quite simply. At the end of each Podcast episode, plug your funnel. Of course, it\u2019s much better if you have a custom URL that you can promote during your Podcast. (Just as we discussed earlier when talking about business cards.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also promote the same URL at the end of the Podcast. Plugging a URL on a Podcast is much easier if you have a short, pithy, and memorable URL. If the URL is too difficult to spell, or if it\u2019s not memorable, then, of course, that won\u2019t be as cool. (Right?)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong># 4 \u2013 Launch A YouTube Channel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">YouTube seems to keep expanding and getting bigger and bigger. I can pretty much guarantee, that since YouTube is so big, that your ideal customers\/prospects are probably on YouTube in droves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s why using YouTube to help promote your hero funnel is a genius idea. The main idea is to create awesome content that helps your ideal prospects. Then, at the end of the video, you can gently pitch the URL of your hero funnel and let your prospects know about your awesome lead magnet(s) that you offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re frustrated because you\u2019re not sure how to create videos, then it\u2019s relatively these days. You can use software like Camtasia or Active Presenter to design awesome videos without any stress. If you\u2019re scared of showing yourself on camera, then you can always use PowerPoint to create cool looking slides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong># 5 \u2013 Write Awesome Blog Content<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blogging is one of my favorite methods to help promote any type of marketing funnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the main reasons that I love blogging, is because blogging is dirt cheap. You don\u2019t need a big marketing budget in the least to start a blog. You can buy a halfway decent domain and a web host for about $50 &#8211; $100 per year. The best part about blogging is that WordPress makes everything super simple these days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you get a halfway decent blog up and running, it\u2019s straightforward to promote your hero funnel. You can promote your funnel within your blog content. You can also create banner ads that promote your funnel. You can also use \u201cwelcome bars\u201d, and \u201cexit-intent popups\u201d to help promote your funnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are tons of premium plugins to choose that can help to turn your blog into a marketing and promotional powerhouse. My advice? Focus on creating amazing content that helps your ideal prospect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you know your prospect well enough to create awesome content for them, then your blog\u2019s going to rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong># 6 \u2013 Within Your Social Media Profiles<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you spend time helping your ideal prospects on social media, then you may as well optimize your profile for best results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your social media profiles are the lowest hanging fruit. Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and Facebook all allow you to promote the URL of your website in your profile. Does your profile have a compelling call to action? Here\u2019s a great opportunity to promote your hero funnel, webinar funnel, book funnel, or any type of funnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your ideal prospect happens upon your profile, what will they see? Will they be impressed with what they see? Moreover, will they see a clear call to action? Never let the attention of your ideal prospect go to waste!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong># 7 \u2013 Inside Of Your Digital Course<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Creating and launching digital courses is a smart idea for all modern entrepreneurs. Since digital learning marketplaces like Udemy, SkillShare, and SkillSuccess have come around, it seems like there\u2019s never been a better time to launch an online course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, how can an online course help to promote your hero funnel or any funnel? There are a few different ways. The first way is to end your course with a blatant call to action. I would recommend that your hero funnel include some type of enticing lead magnet so you can ethically bribe your students to click on over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another way to promote your hero funnel is to promote a banner on your course funnel pages. If you have a membership funnel, a download page, or a thank you page, these are all great places to promote your hero funnel. It might also be a good idea to consider promoting your other funnels within your course funnels. If you offer awesome content, then your students might love to act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, remember that your students make awesome email subscribers. If a student enrolls in your course, and they love your content? Then you can\u2019t imagine a better email subscriber. They already know you, like you, and trust you. Plus, they want to snag more of your content. Can you imagine a better email subscriber to have? I can\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are you frustrated because you have marketing funnel questions? I\u2019ve spent a ton of time researching the top questions that funnel marketers often wonder. Let\u2019s brainstorm some of the top sales funnel and ClickFunnels FAQs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Are ClickFunnels?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClickFunnels is a piece of marketing software that makes it simple to build beautiful sales pages, lead capture pages, marketing pages, membership pages, and more. Unlike most other marketing pages builders, ClickFunnels integrates an affiliate program, payment capabilities, advanced marketing automation, tons of templates, and an easy to use drag and drop editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The thing I love the most about ClickFunnels is the community. ClickFunnels also has a huge collection of training that\u2019s perfect for authors, teachers, consultants, coaches, freelancers, business owners, and marketers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Does ClickFunnels Work For Real Estate?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Absolutely. There are a ton of \u201cdone for you\u201d sales funnel and lead generate templates within ClickFunnels that are perfect for a variety of industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you want your real estate lead to fill out an application, or if you want them to submit their email address, ClickFunnels has you covered. It doesn\u2019t matter how you currently close leads. ClickFunnels is very easy to use, so you can set up a wide array of lead funnel templates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of the templates are very easy to use, so you can easily customize any template to match your real estate agency\u2019s brand, style, and lead generation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is ClickFunnels Easy To Use?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClickFunnel is ridiculously easy to use. Not only is ClickFunnels one of the easiest page builders around, but their support team rocks. If you ever need help or get stuck, you can get help without bending over backward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another thing you\u2019ll love about ClickFunnels is the community.

For that reason, there\u2019s also a ton of existing support content on YouTube, on social media, and various blogs all over the web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think that hero funnels rock and they\u2019re often misunderstood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hero funnels aren\u2019t just about promoting your best photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hero funnels can also help to share your stories, share your brand, and share your passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re especially clever, a hero funnel also rocks for promoting your email list, your books, and even your other marketing funnels. You\u2019re only limited by your creativity and your imagination!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I thank you so much for reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please have a great day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cordially\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Mike \u201cHeroic\u201d DeVincent<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>MrComputerScience.com<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re an influencer or a marketer who wants to launch an awesome hero funnel, then you should read this guide.
