199. 2 Ways To Add Urgency and Increase Funnel Conversions by 50%

We are joined on the show today by a dynamic duo who we're lucky to also call friends, Annette Grant and Sarah Karakaian. These talented hosts are the voices behind the premier podcast in the short-term rental space, Thanks For Visiting, as well as the masterminds behind the Hosting Business Mastery Method.

In their case study, Annette and Sarah reveal two specific incentives they implemented to build urgency into their free workshop funnel, which led to a staggering 50% improvement in their conversion rate and 90% of their students opting to pay in full for their $2500 signature program.

Beyond the element of added urgency, Annette and Sarah also candidly share the other strategies they’ve tested to optimize their free workshop - both the flops and phenomenal successes you’ll want to steal. Tune in to hear what style of testimonials most resonated with viewers on both the live and evergreen versions of their workshop and the winning bonuses that proved to be powerful motivators for people to buy before the workshop even ended.
