If you’re been following the latest “catchphrases” in the marketing world, you know that FUNNELS is one of the big ones right now.

Normally I’m pretty against doing anything just because it’s the “cool” thing to do. But this time around, I’m totally on board with the power that a funnel can have for increasing sales in a semi-passive manner for your service-based business.

I know there are misconceptions out there about a funnel being an icky marketing ploy that takes the relationship-building out of the business. So I want to clear up right away what a funnel is and what it’s not.

LAUNCHING ...

for some, it's a word they would like to avoid at all costs, but see it as a necessary evil. For others, it's a time of excitement, goals being accomplished, and high energy and excitement.

For me... I had no idea!

This is a recap of my very first launch ever! I'm breaking down the exact numbers in terms of my email list, launch sales, total revenue, and the exact plan I used to bring in close to 5K during my first time ever launching a paid course.

It's not the crazy huge revenue numbers that you often see splashed all over the internet, but I hope that it's just the right combination of "WOW! That's a great accomplishment!" and "WOW! That's totally achievable... I could do that!"

If you're in the online business world and don't know Mariah Coz. Well, you're missing out BIG TIME.

And let me rephrase that statement.

If you're ...

• a blogger that is looking to monetize (without salesy ads + promos)

• starting a side hustle that you hope one day will give you freedom from your 9-5

• a stay-at-home Mom that dreams of creating passive income from a laptop

• a business owner (PERIOD)

You NEED to know Mariah Coz from Femtrepreneur.co.

If you're just getting started in social media - Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram - gaining followers is likely one of your main goals (as it should be!). People can't love you and what you do if they don't know about you!

You're also super excited about the abundance of free strategies and tips out there that promise that you'll double, triple, or even quadruple your follower numbers. And you know in your heart that the expert advice will likely help you, but still, that little voice in the back of your head keeps nagging at you.

"Hmmm ... when you have 7 followers (that's 4 family members, your best friend, and a couple of randoms) and you double it, well that's a grand total of 14 followers. Ok, it's bigger than 7, but nothing I'm ready to get too excited about."
