I hear a lot of talk about building a sales funnel -- recycling your customers to maximize profit for yourself and to add benefit to the customer by introducing them to related products or services. Your sales funnel may also include introducing them to various people that provide a given product or service. You don't always have to be the one profiting, and as a matter of fact, you'll be more of a 'go-giver' if you were not the only person generating revenue.
Remember, it is always easier to keep a customer and resell her/him rather than go out and get a new customer.Also, keep in mind that the products/services in your portfolio should be related so that you will not be all over the place.
Let me give you an example of how I set up the sales funnel for my business. Perhaps my example will give you some ideas on how to create your very own sales funnel based on your target niche(s) and your product/service offerings.
