Funding Options

Every business needs cash.

There are government grants, private investors, crowdfunding, the bank down the street.

Always a catch.

Government money means Deadline City.

Private money slices your pie.

Crowdfunding turns into a social media side hustle.

Bank loans tie you up with fees and interest.

Pick the route that clicks...

...or at least hurts less.

Sales Funnel

A sales funnel is a process used by businesses to convert prospects into customers.

It typically consists of several stages, each of which requires the prospect to take a specific action.

For example, the first stage might be an email or advertisement that the prospect sees, while the next stage might involve the prospect signing up for a newsletter or downloading a free trial.

As the prospect moves through the funnel, they become more and more likely to purchase the product or service being sold.

Sales funnels are used by businesses to help them understand their customer journey and increase conversion rates.

​

By carefully tracking each stage of the funnel, businesses can identify areas where they can improve their marketing efforts or provide better customer service.
