Picking winning products

for lead funnels

The right product-funnel match can transform browsers into loyal customers.

Some products naturally convert through funnels. Others fight against them. The key is knowing which is which — and why it matters.

Three characteristics that matter, here's what we think are the essential traits for a winning lead funnel product.

Target

Clear value proposition

The best funnel products solve one specific problem exceptionally well. Visitors understand the benefit immediately.

Avoid products that require extensive education or have complex value propositions that can't be communicated quickly.

Lightning Bolt

Immediate gratification

Products that deliver quick wins or instant value work best in funnels. Long-term benefits are harder to sell.

Think digital downloads, quick consultations, or tools that solve immediate pain points.

Presenting

Easy to demonstrate

Products that can be shown working — through videos, demos, or samples — perform exceptionally well.

If you can't easily show the product in action, reconsider whether it's right for a funnel approach.

What works (and what doesn't)

Not all products are created equal for funnels.

"The best funnel isn't built around what you want to sell. It's built around what your customers want to buy."
