Marketing- and Sales Funnel

One of the most important parts of the marketing process

The marketing funnel is an important part of the marketing process. It describes the most direct journey that customers could take on their decision-making process.

There is no universal version of the funnel but there are various explanations, including three, four or five or additionally more steps that consumers go through on their customer journey.

In theory the Marketing- and Sales Funnel is quite simply, it maps your customers' journey from prospect to customer, and combines this with the tools and processes you use to guide them elegantly through the process. From the initial contact with a company and the actual purchase, prospects move through different touchpoints that are often divided into the phases:  Awareness, Consideration and Decision.
