How to launch a course funnel in 30 minutes

A course funnel has five parts. Get them in this order and you can be live before your coffee goes cold.

1. Write the offer in one sentence

"A 6-lesson video course that gets you budgeting in a weekend, $49." If you can't say it in one line, the page won't either.

2. One page, one button

Your landing page needs a headline, three reasons, what's inside, the price and a buy button. That's it. Tell your AI the sentence above and it writes the first draft.

3. Checkout on the page, with a bump

The checkout should open on your page, not send people to another site. Before the card form, offer one small add-on: a workbook, a template, a cheat sheet. At around half its price. A good bump gets taken by a third to half of buyers.

4. One upsell after paying

Right after payment, offer the next step: a coaching call, the advanced course. One click, same card, no form. If they say no, offer something lighter.

5. Emails that do the follow-up

A free gift for an email address, a welcome series, and one reminder for people who opened checkout and left. That's where most of the money you'd otherwise lose comes back.

Funnelr ships all five already built. You hand the folder to Claude, describe the offer, and it shapes the whole thing around your product.
