Sometimes, sales funnels get a bad rap and that’s because we’ve all seen the bro marketing type funnels that are super automated, sleazy, pushy and just trying to get you to buy at all costs.

Now, I don’t pay a ton of attention to the chatter in the online world. Generally, I just keep my head down, listen to my audience and make sure that I’m serving them.
