Sales Funnels & Conversion Rate Optimisation

Turn visitors into customers.

Most of your website visitors leave without doing anything. A sales funnel captures their interest, builds trust, and converts them when they're ready.

TL;DR

  • Most visitors leave your website without doing anything — that's a conversion problem, not a traffic problem.
  • A funnel captures their email, nurtures them with useful content, and makes the sale when they're ready.
  • Every step is deliberate: landing page, lead magnet, email sequence, offer.
  • It works while you sleep — no more hoping someone picks up the phone.

A note from Louis

Co-Founder, King Tide

You're paying for traffic that disappears.

You run ads. People click. They land on your website, have a look around, and leave. You never hear from them again. That's not a traffic problem - it's a conversion problem.

Keep reading

A sales funnel gives you a system. Instead of hoping someone picks up the phone, you capture their email, nurture them with useful content, and make the sale when they're ready. It works while you sleep.

Stop paying for traffic that disappears. Build the path that turns it into customers.

What You Get

A system, not a homepage.

Funnel strategy

We map out the journey from stranger to customer. Where do leads come in? What convinces them to buy? What happens if they don't? Every step is intentional.

Landing pages

Focused pages built to convert - not distract. One offer, one action, no navigation menus pulling people away. We build them fast-loading, mobile-first, and tested.

Lead magnets

Free guides, checklists, calculators, or tools that give people a reason to hand over their email. Valuable enough that they'd pay for it.

Email sequences

Automated follow-up that nurtures leads until they're ready to buy. Not spammy blasts - strategic sequences that build trust and move people toward a decision.

Conversion rate optimisation

We track what's working and what isn't. Click rates, conversion rates, drop-off points. Then we fix the bottlenecks so more leads become customers.

CRM integration

Your funnel connects to your existing tools - whether that's HubSpot, Mailchimp, or whatever you're using. Leads flow straight into your system, tagged and ready to work.

Proof — Smart Housing Solutions

The funnel that filtered out the tyre-kickers.

Smart Housing Solutions were getting around 10 enquiries a week - and most went nowhere. We built a qualifying quiz that asks budget, timeline, and needs before an enquiry ever reaches the inbox, added starting-from pricing so buyers self-select, and set up an AI-assisted follow-up system so no lead goes cold. Fewer enquiries come through now - and that's the point. Two weeks after it went live, six of them signed.

"Forms are working well! Definitely noticed a shift in the tyre kicker contacts."

Common questions.

What is a sales funnel?

A sales funnel is the path someone takes from first hearing about you to becoming a customer. It's the landing page they arrive on, the lead magnet they download, the emails they receive, and the offer they eventually buy. We build that path deliberately instead of leaving it to chance.

How much does a sales funnel cost?

A basic funnel - landing page, lead magnet, and email sequence - starts at around $2,000. More complex funnels with multiple entry points, segmentation, and ongoing optimisation will be more. We'll scope it out and give you a fixed price.

How long does it take to build?

Most funnels are live within 1-2 weeks. A simple landing page and email sequence can be done in days. Multi-step funnels with custom lead magnets take longer. We'll give you a timeline upfront.

Do I need a sales funnel?

If you're spending money on ads or content and not capturing leads, yes. If people visit your website and leave without doing anything, yes. A funnel gives you a way to stay in touch with people who aren't ready to buy yet - and convert them later.

What tools do you use?

We're not locked into any one platform. We've built funnels on HubSpot, Mailchimp, ConvertKit, and custom-built solutions. We'll recommend what fits your business and budget.

Can you fix my existing funnel?

Yes. If you've got a funnel that isn't converting, we'll audit it, find the bottlenecks, and fix them. Sometimes a few tweaks make a bigger difference than starting over.
