You’ve got followers, you’re posting consistently, and people are engaging with your content. But here’s the million-dollar question: are those followers actually becoming paying clients?

I’m teaching you how to build an Instagram sales funnel that turns engagement into revenue. You’ll learn how to design a clear customer journey, use lead magnets to grow your email list, and set up automations that nurture your audience while you sleep.

Plus, I’m sharing my exact CRIT framework prompt that lets AI map out your funnel, from follower to paying client, so you never have to wonder what your next step should be.

Key Takeaways

  • Followers don’t pay your bills, clients do. Your funnel must move people beyond likes and follows.
  • Instagram is the entry point, but your funnel (lead magnets, email, DMs) is what drives conversions.
  • Lead magnets are essential for moving followers off Instagram and into your ecosystem.
  • DM automation tools like ManyChat can grow your list and generate leads 24/7.
  • AI is your strategic partner. Use the CRIT framework to design your sales funnel step by step.
