Offer your expertise to help them. Be visible in the group. Present your offer only after you have gained the trust of the group members.

Using Solo Ads

A Solo Ad is an indirect way of advertising your product. In this method, someone else sends your emails to their email list for your product promotion. The list owner charges you for sending emails to their list on pay per click (PPC) basis.

There are some important points to remember when using this method to promote ClickFunnels.

• Do not send your leads directly to the ClickFunnels page.
  • Create a buffer or a squeeze page where you can gain control over the traffic and can also get some front end sales in the process.
• Be patient. Solo Ads does not have a high pick up.
  • It takes time and several follow-ups to convert your leads into your customers. However, once converted they become a great source of your recurring income.
• Test the method by purchasing only a small list of, say, up to 100 persons. Purchase more if the method yields favorable results to you.
