I’m amazed at how often this simple idea is overlooked. This one, simple, fast way to consistently create lead gen.   

What is it? <Drum roll please! 🥁> 

The Giveaway Funnel.  It’s my personal favorite. 



You know the science behind a successful business. The Equation to grow is simple:  

Leads: You need new, high quality leads every day

 Sales: You must have a system in place to close those leads

 Referrals: These are Free Leads from happy clients

 Replication: Build systems you can duplicate and delegate to others

  Team: Build a team of all-stars around you 


What if we could put that entire Equation into one Formula? Your Giveaway Funnel! Here’s what it would look like: 

 Step 1 – Ad Click. Your ideal prospect sees your ad offering a chance to win a gift card! They click into your funnel.  

Step 2 – Enter Contest. They’ve landed in your funnel, and now enter the Giveaway Funnel contest. They enter their name, email & phone number for a chance to win your prize  

Step 3 – Qualifying Questions. After entering their contact info, they are taken to a page where they are asked a few “qualifying questions” that help you determine if they are a good fit (a hot lead).  

Step 4 – Thank You Page. After answering, the lead is taken to a thank-you page. Here, they can double their entry by sharing the contest on Facebook. Your calendar is directly embedded on the page, making it so easy for your prospects to schedule an appointment!  


That’s it!  


Then YOU become the wizard behind the curtain, letting the Giveaway Funnel System execute Email Automation and Lead Nurturing. 


Remember: the real gold of The Giveaway Funnel is LEADS. You now have as many leads as you have entries, and they all enter an automated 8-step email sequence we provide for you. 


Boom! You’ve now created the perfect scenario for the lead to get to know, like & trust you


 You’ve Hit the Marketing Gold Mine: Automation & Lead Gen! 


Automatic Leads:
Once someone enters your Giveaway, you will receive an automated email and text message with their contact information


Automatically Downloaded into Your CRM:
All of their information will be saved in your Agent CRM account (or the software of your choice). Inside of Agent CRM you’ll be able to see what emails they opened, what text messages were delivered, etc.


“Hot Transfer” Trigger to Call You:

You have the option of setting up a survey question as a trigger for us to call you and connect you with the lead using the “Hot Transfer”! 



Your Follow Up Process

• In addition to the 8-step email follow-up sequence, you have the opportunity to personally text and call your new leads

• We provide you with text and call scripts to use when following up 



Ideas for Your Niche – Get Creative with It! Think about WHO you want to target.

• You’re Targeting Homeowners? Give away a Home Depot gift card (because that draws in homeowners, not renters)
• You’re Selling Motorcycle Insurance: Give away a gift card to a local Harley Davidson or motorcycle shop
• You’re a Local Florist: Give away a local restaurant gift card combined with flowers from your shop
