Two Funnels · One Simple Question

WHICH FUNNEL IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

We build two kinds of funnels, and they both capture leads. The right one for you isn't about budget — it comes down to one thing: how warm your traffic is. Here's how to tell in about two minutes.

The Short Answer

IT COMES DOWN TO COLD VS WARM TRAFFIC.

Warm traffic already half-knows you — referrals, repeat visitors, people who found you on Google or follow you on social. They arrive with a bit of trust already in place. They just need a reason to leave their email. That's a Lead Funnel.

Cold traffic is total strangers — people clicking a paid ad who've never heard of you. They don't trust you yet, and a page alone won't change that. They have to be sold before they'll act. That's a VSL Funnel — where a sales video does the convincing.

That's the whole decision. Everything below just helps you place yourself on the cold-to-warm scale.

Side By Side

SAME GOAL. DIFFERENT SALESPERSON.

Both funnels share the same machinery — an opt-in, a follow-up sequence, the works. The real difference is what does the convincing: a page, or a video.

LEAD FUNNELThe Standard
VSL FUNNELThe Premium
Best for warm traffic — referrals, organic, your existing audience
Best for cold traffic — paid ads, people who've never heard of you
A page + a free resource does the selling
A sales video does the selling
A full landing page with your offer
A stripped, single-path page built around the video
Landing page, lead magnet, opt-in, email follow-up
Everything in Lead Funnel — plus a written-for-you sales-video script
Video optional — film your own and we'll add it*
We write your script (included) — you film it*
A funnel that captures leads
A salesperson that runs 24/7

* Don't want to be on camera? On either funnel we can produce the video for you with an AI avatar, for an added cost. On a Lead Funnel we'll also write the page scripts; on a VSL Funnel the script is already written and included — you'd just skip filming.

How To Tell

WHICH ONE ARE YOU?

Read both lists. Whichever one sounds more like your business is your answer — and there's no wrong choice, only a right-fit one.

Pick this if…
THE LEAD FUNNEL
Most of your leads come from referrals and word of mouth
You're not running paid ads yet (or don't plan to soon)
People who land on your site already kind of know you
You mainly need a reason for warm visitors to join your list
Pick this if…
THE VSL FUNNEL
You're running paid ads — or about to start
You need to win over total strangers who don't know you
Your traffic is cold and bounces before it converts
You want a video to do the selling so you don't have to
One More Decision

WHAT SHOULD THE FUNNEL ASK FOR?

Once you've picked a funnel, there's one more lever: what it asks a visitor to do. Both funnels end in the same place — a booked call or a quote request — but they can get there two ways. Capture the email first and nurture, or send people straight to the booking. It's the same cold-vs-warm question, one level down.

Lean this way for…
CAPTURE EMAIL FIRST
Cold paid-ad traffic. Only a small slice is ready to book a stranger today
An email opt-in keeps the rest — the clicks you already paid for
The follow-up sequence does the selling over days, not seconds
Higher-commitment offers people rarely buy on the first visit
Lean this way for…
BOOK NOW
Warm, high-intent traffic — Google searches, referrals, retargeting
People who already want the thing and just need a time slot
An extra opt-in step would only add friction for a ready buyer
Lower-friction offers like a free quote or consult

The strongest setup often does both: capture the email as the main action, with a small "ready now? book →" link for the few who are. You keep everyone, and you never make a hot lead wait. Capturing first doesn't replace the booking — it adds a safety net in front of it, so the page, the follow-up emails, and the final step all still point at the same booked call.

A Common Question

CAN I HAVE BOTH?

YES — AND PLENTY OF CLIENTS DO.

If you get referrals and run ads, the two funnels work side by side: the VSL funnel handles your cold paid traffic, while the lead funnel catches everyone warm. Most businesses start with one and add the other as they grow — usually a lead funnel first, then a VSL funnel once they turn ads on. They're two rungs of one ladder, not an either-or.
