Summary
We're moving right along in the Your First 100 Leads challenge, and today I have the replay of Part 3 of the training I just did live! A lot of struggling entrepreneurs and online experts are assuming that because they have something available that's free, that people will automatically opt-in for it and consume it. WRONG! You have to sell effectively at every single stage of your funnel, even with your freebie/lead magnet in order to move people to take action, and in today's episode I show you how!
