The Funnel Builder is an add-on for Free Consumer Reports. It lets you turn your own PDFs into opt-in funnels that work exactly like the 400 report funnels: the same email list, the same offer links, the same stats, and a place on your Showcase page.
Use it for your own lead magnets, for PDFs you have the rights to share, or to add a niche that is not in the 8.
What every funnel gets:
- A squeeze page (the opt-in page) built from one of 9 templates.
- A download page with a button to your PDF.
- Your PDF, stored on your own site.
- A cover image, if you add one.
- Privacy Policy, Terms and Disclaimer pages, linked in the footer.
What you can do with it:
- Build one funnel at a time with a 6 step wizard. See Funnel Builder: The 6 Step Wizard.
- Build many funnels at once from a CSV file. See Funnel Builder: Importing Funnels From A CSV File.
- Add your own categories next to the 8 report niches, and change the emoji and badge colour of any of them. See Funnel Builder: Managing Categories.
- Choose from 9 page templates: Gradient, Clean Card, Dark Professional, Bold Vibrant, Minimal, Modern Glass, Neon Cyber, Warm Sunset and Corporate Blue.
Where to find it:
Once the add-on is active and its key is added, the Free Consumer Reports menu has four more items: Funnel Builder, CSV Import, My Custom Funnels and Categories. The plugin's tab bar shows Funnel Builder with a green ACTIVE badge on the right, which opens My Custom Funnels.
How custom funnels fit in:
Your custom funnels work like the report funnels. They use the same autoresponder, the same URL prefix, the same switch on the Funnels tab, the same Edit page, the same PDF Rebrander and the same Showcase page. See Funnel Builder: Report Funnels, Niches And Where Custom Funnels Appear.
A real example:
The owner of yoursite.com wrote three short guides for smart shoppers and one about decluttering. With the add-on they made a Smart Shopping category, built The Smart Shopper Checklist in the wizard with the Clean Card template, and added the other three the same way. The Funnels tab now shows Smart Shopping (3) next to the 8 niches, and all four funnels send leads to the same Mailchimp list as the reports.
Next steps:
- Install the add-on and add its key. See Funnel Builder: Install And Add Your Key.
- Build your first funnel. See Funnel Builder: The 6 Step Wizard.
- Share it with the Traffic Toolkit, like any report.
