Ep 17How to market solar like a boss (Steve Larsen Interview)
Steve Larsen is a family guy in his late 20's who learned how to sell more by building sales funnels. During college he created his own business helping businesses with their sales funnels. There's nothing like the thrill of a converting sales funnel in full automation! He first got into internet sales funnels when I was selling door-to-door...yup! Pest control. As they’d drive out to our selling area he’d keep looking up at the billboards on the highway and think, "whoa, people call those asking to buy! There's gotta be a way for me to find people who are looking for pest control". So he starting putting little classified ads all over and his phone started blowing up with sales. Before he knew it he was selling ebooks, insurance, survival gear, water ionizers, and more all over the internet. Sales funnels became his self-taught obsession. This led him to become Russell Brunson’s right hand man for the next two years learning from him and some of the best internet marketers in the world. He then took what he taught into his own business and did a million dollars in the first 13 months of business.
