The funnel we plan for every business, as a blueprint you fill in

A marketing funnel is the path a stranger takes to become a customer. This blueprint breaks that path into three stages, 14 building blocks and 61 checkpoints — what to set up, what to measure, and the order to build it in.

It is not a reading list. Every building block has tick boxes and its own Final Work, Date and Comment columns, and the funnel maths worksheet turns it into targets for your own business.

What is inside — the three stages

  1. TOFU — Get found — search engine optimization, organic content, content distribution, digital footprints, Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel
  2. MOFU — Capture and nurture — lead management, email marketing, Meta lead generation ads, call ads, WhatsApp marketing, retargeting and special offers
  3. BOFU — Close the sale — a sales pipeline with fixed stages, from new lead to won or lost

Why this one is different

  • Built around one goal. Every block exists to produce a sale, and each one says exactly what to measure.
  • Your numbers, not ours. The funnel maths worksheet works out your visitor-to-lead rate, cost per lead, cost per sale and return on spend from your own data.
  • An order to build it in. Measure, capture, talk to who you have, new traffic, content — so money is never spent before the funnel can catch what it buys.
  • 14 pages, no filler. Cover, how to use, the funnel at a glance, the three stages, the worksheet, the build order and notes.

Who it is for

  • Business owners who spend on marketing and want to see where leads are lost.
  • In-house marketers who need one plan that connects ads, content, email and sales.
  • Freelancers and agencies who want a funnel framework to plan every new client with.

How to use it

01

Read it top to bottom once

The three stages depend on each other. Traffic without capture leaks, and capture without follow-up wastes the lead.

02

Tick what is live

Every building block has checkpoints. Tick a box only when that piece is live and tested.

03

Fill in the worksheet

Put last month's real numbers into the funnel maths page and set a target for each line.

A 14-page PDF: the funnel at a glance, 14 building blocks with tick boxes, a sales pipeline table, a funnel maths worksheet, the build order and a notes page.

Top, middle and bottom of the funnel. TOFU gets you found, MOFU captures and nurtures leads, and BOFU turns conversations into sales.

No. The worksheet uses your own numbers - visitors, leads, sales and spend - because no industry average tells you where your own funnel is leaking.

Yes. Freelancers and agencies can use it to plan each client's funnel and to show the client which pieces are live.
