Reminder - 2 Things

It's nice to boil things down to the basics. So I often remind myself, and our grads, that Inbound Marketing is about only 2 things: 1. posting pieces on the Internet that go viral, and 2. perfecting the slippery-ness of your Sales Funnel.

Perfecting the Slippery-ness: on your author bio (which gives people a reason to click for your gift, your irresistible offer), on your Squeezepage, your Thank-You page, your email to new subscibers - on every Step of your Funnel - be slippery. Be irresistible.

How? By being about only one thing. That helps the reader quickly make a decision or have a gut response. Yes or no. The speed with which you can make your point and they can make a decision (and take action) defines your slippery-ness. The faster, the slippery-er.

The sooner you stop talking, the sooner they can do something. Less is more!
