Before Infusionsoft Different services for: -Email marketing - Prospect Tracking -E-commerce - Stats reporting No real process across locations. People driven, not System driven.

Before Infusionsoft We relied on staff to do everything manually. As we grew, we found all staff was not created equal. Training was not uniform. We needed systems to tie everything together and to provide a structure where all staff could excel. 15. With Infusionsoft Lead Generation Prospect Tracking Trial Class Purchasing & Scheduling Email marketing Pre-frame Upgrades Online store Analytics Its been a process of evolution 16. With Infusionsoft Before IS Online Trial Revenue 2012: $ 7,000 After IS Online Trial Revenue 2013: $ 17,400 Thats 148% Increase with Infusionsoft. Prospects paid us $17,400 to try out program. That alone more than pays for Infusionsoft. 17. Conversion Rate Lead to Prospect 2013: 28% Prospect to Member 2013: 61% Retention Rate: 72% 18. With Infusionsoft - Online Trial Purchase - Web Form - Westside - BJJ - Adult BJJ - Lost Lead - 2 Class - In Store Purchase - Web Form - Eastside - Kids - Little Champ - Current - 1 Class Grappling Gary Ninja NancyKarate Ken - Trial Reservation - Tribeca - Kickboxing - Adult Basic - Trial - 2 Class Basic level = Identification via Tags 3 different scenarios, instant snapshot: 19. In the beginning Web form opt-ins Wide angle approach Tested different magnets - Schedule & pricing - Free reports - Free videos 20. In the beginning Everyones first Campaign = Follow-up emails & phone prompts + Tags! 21. The Goal = Online Trial Purchase 2 classes for $29.99 establish value Infusionsoft: Legacy order forms Separate forms for each trial type: -Kids class trials -Adult kickboxing trials -BJJ trials 22. Opportunity Stages Immediately upon purchase: Back end: - Location ownership assigned - New Opportunity created - Program & Trial Tags applied Front end: - Instant human interaction! 23. New Opportunity Receipt + Personal Contact + What to Do Next 24. Opportunity Pipeline A prospect goes through through various checkpoints before they reach the member stage. Loss can happen at ANY of these points. Goal = Prevent the Loss 25. Opportunities Campaign We built a campaign solely for Opportunity Stages Begins at Online Purchase, with other drop in points (well get to that) Fully automated except for manual stage switches. Because it requires manual upkeep, we had to find a streamlined interface for our sales team (well get to that too) 26. 1st Class Scheduled Introductory email that answers common questions & orients the customer with what to expect before they even walk in the door Re-enforces information given over the phone when scheduling the customer 27. 1st Class Complete Goal = Get them to come back Staff pushes to accomplish this in-person, our automation is there as a safety net. Insurance policy. 28. 1st Class Complete Should the net fail. emails go off to the program director prompting attention at 1-week and 4-weeks after initial stage entry 29. Trial Complete Other stages are similarly programmed. Upon trial completion: Satisfaction Survey Purpose: Ensure our procedures are being followed Gauge customer experience Appear attentive to customers needs Gather testimonials 30. Trial Complete Membership upsell: For prospects that are thinking it over, we deliver an email series spanning a few weeks aimed at addressing concerns (most common hurdle? price & commitment) 31. End of the Road? Membership Purchased Tag: Current + Program Lost Lead Tag: Lost Lead Ok great but what about everyone else? Phone calls? Walk-ins? Referrals? 32. Where do Prospects come from? ONLINE Active: web form signup/trial purchase Passive: observation, maybe they call or walk in later PHONE phone inquiry reserving a trial class WALK-IN walking in for info walking in to sign up 33. Integration Problem In 2013, we sold 430 martial arts trial programs online, through Infusionsoft. Thats up from 250 trials sold in 2012. Thats great! But wait. How many trials did we sell total? 34. Integration Problem Online Tryouts 2013 430 Paid Trials $17,400 Total Tryouts 2013 1,568 Paid & Free 35. Next Step in Evolution In order for to integrate Offline prospects the same as Online prospects, we needed to: Automate Tag & Opportunity Creation Centralize input Merge existing web opt-ins with new data from person-to-person contact 36. Harnessing Campaign Power We accomplished all of this via Custom Fields and Internal Forms Dedicated Campaign 37. Every time someone calls to reserve a trial class, sales team must fill out Trial Reservation form. Basic info collection. Drops into First Class Scheduled 38. Every time someone new walks in and fills out a waiver, sales team must fill out Walk-In Tryout form. More detailed info. Drops into First Class Complete 39. Tracking Prospects Great, so the data has been input. But how do you keep track of when people actually come in? Needed a scheduler to tie into Infusionsoft. But no scheduler would fit our needs. Too many programs = too many parts. Goal was to simplify. 40. Making Life Easier IMAGINE THIS: Its 3PM, class of 4-year-olds and their strollers are trying to leave while a new class of 6- year-olds is starting. Both phones are ringing and you have a new walk-in lead asking for information at the desk, with two tryouts scheduled to come in the next hour. The least # of clicks it takes to get information, or to do a task, the better. 41. Challenge Clicks needed to change an Opportunitys stage and return to the dashboard: 7 Windows to change between: 2 42. Solution Calendar + IS Sidebar The Infusionsoft Sidebar plug-in allows us to keep all the information in one place, and perform actions from a single display. 43. Clicks needed to change an Opportunitys stage: 4 Windows to change between: 1 Calendar Always Visible 44. Direct Sales 1. Find prospect 2. Educate Prospect 3. Guide through sales process based our goals 4. Tell them what to do. Contact Point Action YOU want Website Visit Fill out form Email Purchase online trial Phone call Schedule intro class Trial class Buy membership 45.
