What is the Sales Funnel?
A marketing funnel isn't a real funnel. For this marketing concept, the use of funnel is to visual define the process of selling from beginning to the end. It has a broad opening for customers who are known as "Unqualified Prospects" at its top and a narrower opening for sales conversion at the lower end. This is a great comparability.

People that are "unqualified prospects" are at the upper end of the funnel. This is those who have not spoken to you but may be interested in your products or services. After a series of sales calls and offers you've contacted people who have bought your products or services.
The efficiency of a lead generation funnel comes down to its ability to allows you to track potential buyers' behavior during different stages of the extended sales process. Utilizing the sales funnel to measure the number of prospects who are qualified at each step, you will be able to predict how many potential customers will become actual customers.
It is possible to use the sales funnel to identify the areas and ways in which your sales procedure is working or not, and also whether you're not attracting enough customers. This data can help you decide what your primary goal should be and how to keep sales at the right level. It is used to track and control customers' sales processes.
The Sales Funnel Top, Front or End
The top of your sales funnel must be the most active component of your process. This requires constant testing. There is no limit of front-end ideas. Your imagination and resources are the only limitations.
The primary goal of the front-end will be to draw potential customers and convert to buyers later on in the selling process.
A prospective client is "qualified" when they sign up to the product or service you offer. This is the moment when the prospective customer or "Unqualified Lead" becomes qualified. This is because they have taken an action that indicates that they may be interested in buying your products or services.
To make your front-end effective, you need to drive targeted traffic towards your website, blog, squeeze page, or blog. The most efficient methods and resources to accomplish this are article marketing, PPC adverts, social media (Google+, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube), banners, forums, blogging as well as content marketing.
There are many tools that can be used to "qualify prospects who aren't qualified". One of the most effective is the use of an online squeeze page, where you can offer something of value pertinent to your product or service which people can receive for free or at a significantly reduced cost in exchange for the exchange of their name and email. You can choose from newsletters and related reports and videos and e-mail courses.
The front-end of your sales funnel is the point where potential customers are attracted to you. The back-end is the part we should be focusing on.
The Back-End or Bottom of the Funnel
The bottom, or back end, of the sales funnel are where the majority of sales and profits occur. It typically contains your highest priced products. They are all suitable for the same market, however they are delivered in different formats, like audio, video and live interaction.
The primary difference between the front-end and the back-end is the type of client and also the price of the product or services being provided.
It is the case that only a small percent, maybe 1 to 2 percent of the people entering your front-end will end up in your back-end. This is due to a small few will invest a greater amount of money.
You see, that while front end products and services may cost under $100, back-end items and services typically cost in the hundreds or thousands. This means that the lowest end of the sales channel which is also called the back-end is the primary source of revenue.
Like I said the sales funnel can be as easy or complicated as your creativity or resources allow.
