I want to show you a simple, effective way to get clients quickly, without spamming anyone or sending cold emails.   It’s called the hand-raise email, and it works at any stage of your sales funnel.   Here’s how it looks:   “Hey Mike! Next week, I’m putting together a beta group for five fitness coaches to help…

Why your failed funnels are a win

By Mike Killen | Oct 3, 2024
Posted in , , , , ,

I’ve had more failed funnels than successful ones, and here’s the truth: that’s exactly how it should be.   For every 10 funnels that fall flat, I’ll have one that delivers exponentially better results.   But what’s a failure, really?   For me, a failed funnel is one that doesn’t make the money I expected it to.   Nine…

Building an email list? Stop making this common mistake  

By Mike Killen | Oct 2, 2024
Posted in , , , , , , , , ,

The biggest mistake I see when people try to build an email list is creating loads of lead magnets.   It just doesn’t work.   In my experience, 80% of my leads come from just 20% of my lead magnets.   We’ve had one lead magnet alone bring in around 5,000 leads.   And while my books are now…

Why you need to sell before you build

By Mike Killen | Oct 1, 2024
Posted in , , , , , ,

Pre-selling is the key to validating any offer before you waste time, money, and energy building it.   Think about it—how many times have you been chatting with friends or family, sharing a business idea, and they say, “That’s a great idea!”?   Of course they’re going to say that—they’re there to support you.   But the real…

Want to land more clients? Start sharing case studies

Posted in , , , , , , , ,

Case studies are hands down the best way to prove you can deliver results.   If you know you’ve got the experience and can help people, but other businesses are overtaking you, it’s probably because you’re not showing off your case studies enough.   The good news? You don’t need tons of them.   Two or three solid…

Struggling to find clients? Here’s why your niche is the key

By Mike Killen | Sep 27, 2024
Posted in , , , , ,

When someone asks me, “How can I find more clients?” My first question is always the same: What type of clients do you want?   It’s like going to a travel agent—remember those?—and saying, “I want to go on holiday,” but when they ask where, you just shrug.   How can they plan anything if you don’t…

How I Balance Building Funnels and Living Life

Next week is our anniversary, and I’ll be taking even more time off to escape to a hidden spot in Cornwall. For me, work-life balance is key—especially while building funnels and running a business. I love my work, but I’ve realised it can easily creep into everyday life. In my experience, people who are workaholics…

Lately, I’ve been working hard on this exact issue with our YouTube channel.   We’ve been pushing ourselves to turn cold audiences into loyal clients, and I’ve realised something crucial along the way.   The key to success here is twofold.   First, stop focusing on the technical side of things.   Your audience doesn’t care about funnels, automation,…

The Journey from a $0 Funnel to a $25,000 Funnel

By Mike Killen | Sep 24, 2024
Posted in , , , , , , , , , ,

Here’s how I sold my first $25,000 marketing funnel. The first thing I did was make sure I knew exactly who I was targeting—insurance agents. I spent weeks doing deep research, joining forums, attending webinars, and diving into message boards. What I found was a goldmine: these companies had tons of traffic on their blog…

The one thing your sales funnel is missing

By Mike Killen | Sep 23, 2024
Posted in , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Have you ever thought that giving customers more options would increase your chances of a sale? It’s easy to think that providing lots of choices makes people feel more free, but in reality, the opposite is true. People want the feeling of choice, but when it comes to taking action, they don’t want complexity—they want…

These people inspired me to start my business

I suppose the person who truly inspired me to start my business was the person who fired me from my job. I don’t harbour any ill will or bad feelings towards her. I clearly wasn’t right for the role, and frankly, I probably made her life difficult. But that manager, who told me I didn’t…

Imposter Syndrome

By Mike Killen | Dec 12, 2023

If there’s one thing I see time and time again with my clients. It’s imposter syndrome. “I can’t charge higher prices because my clients won’t go for it.” “I’m not good enough to close people that fast.” “That won’t work for me. I’m not like you.” It’s a mixture of a lack of self belief,…

Secret double life kept from family

Without question, the single biggest change I’ve seen in my business in the last year is massively reducing the amount of social platforms I’m on. Maybe that doesn’t seem like a big deal (especially with how “easy” content repurposing is). But to me, it has literally changed my life. I’ve always been fascinated by people…

Felt like your client base was a sea of tiny, ill-suited fish, when all you wanted was a big, healthy adult fish?  You know, the kind that truly values your services and contributes significantly to your business growth.  I’ve been there, and I’ve discovered the perfect bait.

I’m furious it costs this much to live

By Mike Killen | Dec 7, 2023

Let’s get into it. The average business owner needs about $3000 a month just to keep the lights on. But that’s just survival, not flourishing. Here’s a question. Are you making enough to cover everything it takes to survive and run a business? Rent, food, bills, kids, savings, taxes, and, oh, paying a team. That’s…

I wish I knew this before running an agency

Imagine this, 9 out of 10 agencies are on the brink of collapse, and most of them don’t even see it coming.  They’re stuck in quicksand, panicking and throwing anything they can at the wall hoping it sticks, meanwhile a select few agencies are effortlessly snagging profitable and high paying clients.  What if I told…

Overwhelmed? Remember: One Pile At A Time

By Mike Killen | Dec 5, 2023
Posted in , ,

Imagine this scene for a moment.  An unruly, wild, and forgotten garden.  A space neglected for over 20 years, left to be swallowed up by time and nature.  A jigsaw of chaotic elements, each one competing for dominance. It was a playground for weeds, the fence posts glued, absurdly, to the neighbour’s wall.  Patio slabs…

Can you build a faceless business?

Why do we often grapple with the role of being the visible leader of our business? Let me share an observation from my experience with various agencies. They typically divide into two camps: the Faces and the Hands. Faces thrive on interaction, clinching deals, and adding value to their networks. Hands are the doers, focused…

Why do we often end up building businesses that exhaust rather than exhilarate us? Let me take you back to the end of 2022, a time when I was on the brink of giving up. I was utterly spent, not just physically but emotionally too. Instead of seeking another business guru, I turned to a…

Hey there, I'm Mike (:

Mike Killen

Back in 2016 I decided that I was going to help as many funnel builders as I could, sell more marketing funnels for higher prices.

I've now helped thousands of funnel builders sell their services for higher prices, define a niche and scale their business.

I know that my team and I can help, so please don't hesitate to reach out.

Have courage, commit and take action.
