the challenge:

Melanie had a high-level vision for an evergreen funnel, but many of the strategic and technical pieces required to bring it to life were still missing.

While an initial strategy had been outlined, the customer journey required refinement, the technology stack had yet to be implemented, and the overall experience needed to function as one cohesive system rather than a collection of individual assets.

The project required more than execution. It needed strategic guidance, thoughtful decision-making, and end-to-end implementation to transform an idea into a scalable marketing engine.

I refined the existing strategy, challenged assumptions where appropriate, and translated the original concept into a complete evergreen customer acquisition system.

Beyond building individual assets, every decision was made with the entire customer journey in mind—from the first interaction through purchase and post-purchase experience. This included selecting the appropriate technology, designing the conversion path, developing branded customer resources, and implementing the automations needed to ensure the system could operate seamlessly once launched.

Within just two weeks, the complete ecosystem was built, tested, and launched, beginning to generate leads and sales automatically.

results:

The completed funnel gave Melanie more than a collection of marketing assets. It provided a fully integrated evergreen marketing system designed to consistently attract, nurture, and convert new leads.

Within the first six weeks following launch, the email list grew by 59%, with the lead magnet converting at 17.2% and the automated tripwire funnel converting 8.5% of new subscribers into paying customers. The email experience also demonstrated strong engagement, achieving an average 72.68% open rate across the lead magnet nurture sequence and 66.67% throughout the tripwire upsell sequence.

Beyond the early performance metrics, the business now has a scalable marketing foundation built for long-term growth. Every new lead is guided through a fully automated customer journey—from initial opt-in to purchase—supported by strategic messaging, branded assets, and marketing infrastructure designed to continue generating leads and sales as the business grows.
