Today I’m working on Day 3 of the Funnel Builder Certification program. So far: • Badge 1 completed • Badge 2 completed • Starting Badge 3 Badge 2 was all about recreating a funnel, and I’m sharing the funnel I rebuilt below One big thing I learned today is the supply and demand for funnel builders — and how valuable this skill really is right now. The strategy I’m starting with is simple: • build community first • offer strategy sessions • sell strategy before anything else I’ve gone through the full process 2–3 times, and I can already feel myself getting smoother at modeling funnels. I’ve modeled multiple funnels, and it’s getting faster every time. I’m also setting up an application funnel for people who respond to my posts, so I can build a free funnel for them as practice. I’m learning so much — including faster ways to get things done that I didn’t even know existed before. Really grateful for this opportunity and excited to keep going. Certification in progress.

Let me save you from shipping something that quietly signals “amateur” to anyone who lands on it. Even seasoned funnel builders miss this stuff. And it costs you trust before the offer even has a chance. Here’s the thing most people don’t realize: Funnels don’t just convert with copy and offers. They convert with signals. Tiny details that tell the prospect, “This person knows what they’re doing.” Or… “This feels slapped together.” So before you publish your next funnel, do this quick sweep. First: the favicon. If I open your funnel and see the default ClickFunnels favicon in the browser tab, I already know you didn’t finish the job. Put your logo there. It takes two minutes. And it instantly upgrades perceived legitimacy. Second: the ClickFunnels badge. Bottom right corner. Unless you’re selling marketing services, that badge hurts you. To a normal prospect, it doesn’t say “built on ClickFunnels.” It says “template.” Toggle it off before you publish. Bonus points for removing it from your emails too. Third: the social sharing image. This one gets missed all the time. Go to your funnel settings. Create a simple graphic in Canva for that specific funnel. Because when someone pastes your link into Facebook, X, or anywhere else… that image is what represents your brand. No image = no control. Wrong image = wrong impression. None of this is advanced. But it is the difference between a funnel that feels intentional and one that feels half-baked. These are dumb mistakes. But dumb mistakes are the ones that kill trust fastest. So before you obsess over headlines and buttons, make sure you didn’t ship something that rolls eyes before it ever converts. 🚀 - James I'm launching software on Thursday that actually checks for these signals and more.
