Sales funnel

How to control the entire sales process of your business

What is the sales funnel?

The sales funnel or sales funnel are the stages that a person goes through until they reach a final goal set by the business.

Some examples of objectives that a business may have are: To buy a product, hire a service or register on the web.

Depending on the stage each person is in, the company will have a different communication and marketing strategy.

Stages of the sales funnel

Normally a funnel is divided into four stages:

  1. Prospects: they are the people who find you through some means, for example Google or have a first contact with the business.
  2. Contacts: are those people who once they know you begin to be interested in you.
  3. Qualified potential customers: they have a real interest in your product or service. What they are seeing fits their needs and they are very close to reaching the final goal
  4. Conversion: the person ends up reaching the goal you have set and…. Congratulations! He is now your client.

 

But neither the name of the stages, nor the number of stages are an exact formula. Depending on the needs and objectives of your company, you can create your own funnel.

Why use a sales funnel?

  • With a sales funnel you “force” yourself to set goals. The objectives in a business are necessary to measure the strategies carried out.
  • You will better plan the organization of work and organization of the teams.
