How to Make Your Funnel Feel Like a Journey and Not A Pitch! 


You’ve poured hours into your content. You’ve followed all the tips. But the clicks aren’t coming, the sign-ups are slow, and you’re wondering what you’re missing. Sound familiar?

If your audience isn’t engaging, it’s not always the algorithm or even your offer.

In this episode of Amplify Your Authority, I take a light-hearted, Indiana Jones-style approach to a topic that usually feels dry and stressful: your marketing funnel.

We’ll head into the metaphorical jungle together to find the four “stones” every potential client needs to cross for a successful journey.

This episode is part story, part strategy, and 100% practical.

 

What You'll Discover in This Episode

  • A story-based breakdown of the four essential parts of a funnel
  • The four “magical stones” every audience must experience to complete their journey: invitation, threshold, risky leap, and reassurance.
  • The importance of visibility (“the lantern stone”) and how to build visibility without chasing viral trends
  • Simple ways AI can help you troubleshoot your funnel and make each step more effective
