Essential Learning Points From This Episode:

• Everything on your website must be designed cohesively and align with your brand and marketing funnel
• To build the brand of you, you’ve got to have complete control of your website – you can’t build your home on rented land
• There are 1.3 billion websites, which means your site has got to be more than an online brochure
• Nobody is going to buy from you if they don’t trust you, so building trust should be your number one goal
• Eliminate the need for cold calls by leading with value first
• Offer prospects lead magnets that give value in exchange for an email address
• Include a second offer on the thank you page, and educate prospects on the next step of your funnel
• Increase your authority by displaying social proof of your expertise on your website such as credentials, case studies, and video testimonials, etc.
• Invest in a professional copywriter to craft compelling content and achieve true clarity
• If you’re sending paid traffic to your website, don’t send it to your homepage, send it to a top-notch landing page!
• Put your social links in the footer of your website, not on your main landing pages
• Much, much more!
