Simplify to Thrive : Optimize Your Marketing Funnels
As daunting as it may seem, reviewing metrics is the first step to simplifying your marketing strategy for sustainable success. If you are like most of my clients, you've tried various strategies but never taken the time to evaluate effectiveness or streamline tactics. Consequently, you've ended up with a tangled mess of too many lead magnets, experimental opt-ins, untracked conversions, and overwhelming funnels. As a result, your customer journey feels more like a random scavenger hunt than an intentional path with clear directions.
That's why one of the first things I do when working with clients is to conduct a thorough Marketing Audit. During this process, we strategically analyze each stage of the customer journey for every offer or funnel while recording essential numbers and conversions along the way so we can simplify tactics while maximizing conversions.
