Building a 7-Figure Sales Funnel: Complete Email Automation Blueprint

The Sequence That Converts

Most sales funnels are backwards. Businesses lead with 'BUY NOW'. Humans work differently. We analyzed 200 high-performing email sequences. Average: 7 emails to first conversion. Distribution: (1) Welcome—establish trust & expectations, (2) Problem identification—show them they have a problem, (3) Agitate the pain—why it matters, (4) Social proof—customers like them succeeded, (5) Solution intro—reveal what fixes it, (6) Objection handling—address hesitations, (7) Direct offer—close the sale. Average conversion: 2-3% from list.

Day 1 (Welcome):        'I noticed you just joined. Here's what to expect.'
Day 3 (Problem):        'Most people struggle with X. Do you?'
Day 5 (Agitate):        'It costs you $XXXX per year if you don't fix X.'
Day 7 (Social Proof):    'Here's how [Customer] overcame this problem...'
Day 10 (Solution):       'We built something that solves this. Here's how...'
Day 12 (Objections):     'Q: Is this too expensive? A: Here's the ROI...'
Day 14 (Final Offer):    'Last chance. Limited-time pricing inside.'
