3 Simple Digital Marketing Tools That Can Ensure Success

From our friends at ClickFunnels:

Want to start an online business?

Then you need to pick the right software for that.

Today we are going to discuss three digital marketing tools that can help you succeed.

ClickFunnels 2.0

ClickFunnels 2.0 is the upcoming new version of our software.

Just like the original ClickFunnels, ClickFunnels 2.0 is a funnel builder app designed to help you build profitable sales funnels.

But it’s also so much more than that – we made sure to include everything you need to start making money online.

ClickFunnels 2.0 Features

Here are some of ClickFunnels’ most noteworthy features:

High-Converting Sales Funnel Templates

ClickFunnels 2.0 includes a library of proven, high-converting sales funnel templates.

Whatever it is that you sell:

• Services.
• Software.
• Memberships.
• Info products.
• Physical products.

…we have a sales funnel template that has been proven to work for businesses just like yours.

This means that you can save time by using these templates instead of building every sales funnel from scratch.

Sophisticated Funnel Flows

ClickFunnels 2.0 also includes various advanced features that will be appreciated by experienced funnel builders.

For example:

Our software allows you to create sophisticated funnel flows with behavioral triggers.

This means that you can provide each person that enters your sales funnel with an experience tailored specifically for them based on the actions that they take.

CRM Funnels

But what if your product or service can’t be sold through a completely automated sales funnel?

You might be selling something that requires personally reaching out to sales prospects, scheduling discovery calls, and then closing deals on those calls.

When that’s the case, staying organized is extremely important. Otherwise, you will quickly find yourself overwhelmed by it all.

That’s why you need to have a solid customer relationship management (CRM) system in place.

ClickFunnels 2.0 includes a CRM functionality that allows you to easily keep track of everything that is happening in your sales funnel.

This is also one of the ways in which our app helps you save money – you don’t need to pay for a separate CRM solution.

Team Collaboration

ClickFunnels 2.0 isn’t just for solopreneurs.

Our software includes amazing team collaboration features that make it easy to work with other people – whether they are sitting in the same office as you or scattered all across the globe.

One notable feature is user permissions – you can give and restrict access to specific functionalities of our software based on each person’s role.

For example:

If you hire someone to help you build sales funnels, you can give them access to the functionalities that they need for that but restrict their access to everything else.

This allows you to provide everyone with the tools that they need to do their jobs while also protecting sensitive business information.

Another notable feature is simultaneous page editing. You know how in Google Docs, several people can edit the same document at the same time? Well, with ClickFunnels 2.0, you can do that with the pages in your sales funnel!

Fastest Load Speed

Did you know that page loading speed is super important when it comes to conversion rates?

Typically, the faster the page loads, the better it converts. It might sound ridiculous but every second matters – literally. You can’t afford to have slow-loading pages in your sales funnel!

That’s why we designed ClickFunnels 2.0 with page loading speed in mind – pages built with it load blazingly fast.

And this isn’t just our opinion, it’s a fact that is backed up with data. We actually tested our new app against our major competitors. What were the results?

See for yourself:

Email Broadcasts and Workflows

Email marketing is the most effective form of online marketing there is. Needless to say, every well-designed sales funnel must incorporate it.

ClickFunnels 2.0 includes a full-fledged email marketing functionality that you can use to:

• Send one-off broadcast emails.
• Setup automated email sequences.
• Create email workflows with behavioral triggers.

This is another way in which our app helps you save money – you don’t need to pay for a separate email marketing solution.

ClickFunnels 2.0 has everything you need to start, grow, and monetize your email list!

Membership Site

Did you know that membership websites can be a great way to generate recurring revenue?

ClickFunnels 2.0 includes a membership site builder that enables you to start, manage, and grow an exclusive online community.

Customer Center

ClickFunnels 2.0 allows you to create a customer center where people can conveniently access their paid content all in one place.

Universal Elements

Want to update a particular page element throughout your entire sales funnel?

With ClickFunnels 2.0, you don’t need to go and edit each page manually, you can simply set that element as “universal” and it will be automatically updated across the entire funnel.

Ecommerce

Want to start an eCommerce business?

ClickFunnels 2.0 gives you everything you need to build an online store.

Pick a store template, customize it according to your needs, and add items to your catalog. Now you are ready to start promoting your products with cart funnels!

This is yet another way in which ClickFunnels 2.0 helps you save money – you don’t need to pay for a separate eCommerce platform to start selling physical products online.

Cart Funnels

So what’s a cart funnel?

Cart funnels are eCommerce sales funnels designed to sell a particular product in your catalog.

Typically, a cart funnel consists of the main offer, a bump offer,  two upsells, and an offer wall.

This approach to selling might seem complicated at first but it’s actually much more effective than the usual eCommerce product pages.

And ClickFunnels 2.0 makes it easy to create cart funnels for your store!

Course Builder

Want to make a living by sharing your knowledge with the world?

Our software gives you everything you need to build an info product business.

Choose a course template, design the curriculum, and add the content. Now you can start promoting your course with our proven, high-converting sales funnel templates!

Blog Builder

ClickFunnels 2.0 includes a blogging functionality that you can use to write articles, edit them, and publish them on your website.

It’s worth noting that you can set each article to be either public (visible to everyone) or members-only (only accessible to registered users that have passwords).

This means that you have the option of offering premium content to your blog readers.

Page Builder

You don’t need to know anything about coding or web design in order to create high-converting web pages with ClickFunnels 2.0.

You can simply pick a page template from our template library, customize it with our visual page builder, and then add it to your sales funnel!

Real-Time Analytics

ClickFunnels 2.0 includes an analytics functionality – our analytics dashboard displays all the most important business metrics in real-time.

This means that you don’t need to worry about dealing with complex web analytics solutions like Google Analytics unless you want those advanced features.

MeetEdgar Features

Here are some of MeetEdgar’s most noteworthy features:

Library of Evergreen Content

MeetEdgar’s library of evergreen content is what makes it different from other similar scheduling apps.

This functionality allows you to:

• Create categories for evergreen content (e.g. blog posts, funny memes, YouTube videos, etc.)
• Add evergreen content to these categories.
• Set a posting schedule for each category.

Then MeetEdgar will follow that schedule and automatically share the content from your library on various social media platforms.

This is an excellent way to leverage evergreen content.

Say, if you have been writing essays on your blog for a while now, you can add them to your evergreen content library.

That way, instead of staying buried in the archives, that content will help you grow your social media following.

Moreover, you can plug your blog’s RSS feed into MeetEdgar so that new posts would be added to the library automatically.

Note that MeetEdgar’s evergreen content library is bottomless, meaning that the app will continue recycling that content forever. You will never run out of updates.

This feature can be a huge timesaver!

Content Creation Tools

MeetEdgar also allows you to plan, craft, and schedule social media updates without adding them to your library.

This is helpful for sharing time-sensitive content such as various announcements, launches, sales, etc.

You can also auto-generate variations of each update with a click of a button which can help you 5x your content.

Also, if you ever find yourself struggling with writer’s block, you can simply plug an article link into MeetEdgar.

Then the app will scan the text for share-worthy quotes and use them to generate social media updates for you. Pretty cool!

Social Media Marketing Analytics

MeetEdgar has an analytics function that can help you evaluate the effectiveness of your social media marketing campaigns.

The app tracks performance data for everything that you post so it’s easy to see what your audience responds to.

You can also A/B test variations of the same update to see which version performs the best before adding it to your evergreen content library.

MeetEdgar Integrations

MeetEdgar offers these integrations:

• Edgar Chrome extension allows you to share links and add content to your library while browsing with Chrome.
• Bookmarklet for Safari and Firefox that allows you to share links and add content to your library while browsing with Safari or Firefox.
