If Phase 1 filled your pipeline…
And Phase 2 built trust and nurtured intent…
Phase 3 is where you get paid.

But here's the trap:
Most founders and teams stall here.
Not because they can’t sell—but because they don’t have a system to convert consistently.

This is where your Sales Conversion Layer becomes your secret weapon.

Let’s break it down.

🔄 Why You Need a Conversion System, Not Just Sales Skills

Even the best leads go cold without follow-up.
Even the most engaged prospects ghost when friction creeps in.

A real conversion system does 3 things:

1. Activates intent at the right time

2. Reduces friction in the buyer journey

3. Follows up relentlessly without feeling desperate

Sales becomes repeatable when it’s engineered — not winged.

🧩 The Sales Conversion Stack: Tools + Tactics

Here's how we structure it:

🔥 Your Sales Conversion Funnel (Phase 3 Blueprint)

✅ Step 1: Activate Intent

Use micro-CTAs to drive conversions from your nurture content:

• “Want the playbook? Let’s chat.”

• “I recorded a quick Loom explaining this for your industry…”

• “Here's what I’d do if I were you → [insert value bomb]”

🔥 Pro Tip: Embed links to a booking page in your newsletter, socials, or email nurture flows.

📞 Step 2: Book the Call — Fast

Speed matters. If they’re warm, strike now.

Set up:

• Automated Calendly availability with time zone awareness

• Routing logic (Chili Piper or HubSpot Pro) to assign calls to the right closer

• SMS/email reminders to cut no-show rates

💬 Step 3: Run Sales Calls with Structure

Stop winging it.
Start using a script or framework that covers:

1. Problem – What's blocking them from growth?

2. Vision – Where are they trying to go?

3. Bridge – How you help them get there

4. Proof – Who you’ve helped and results delivered

5. Close – “Want help with that?”

📌 Record everything. Tools like Grain or Fathom summarize action items and auto-sync to CRM.

📝 Step 4: Proposals That Close

Don’t send boring PDFs.
Send dynamic proposals with interactive elements, testimonials, pricing tiers, and videos.

📈 Tools like Better Proposals let you track open rates, time spent on each section, and nudge sign-off.

🔁 Step 5: Follow Up Like a Pro

No response? No problem.

Use a 3-touch follow-up system:

1. “Just checking if you saw the proposal”

2. “Wanted to see if you had any questions”

3. “Here’s a Loom with a quick summary — let me know your thoughts!”

Set reminders or automate it via Close.com or HubSpot sequences.

📈 Phase 3 Checklist

✔️ Embed a clear CTA in all nurture content
✔️ Optimize your booking system to remove friction
✔️ Use a repeatable call structure
✔️ Send tracked, dynamic proposals
✔️ Follow up 3–5x with value in every touch

💬 Ed’s Take

If your conversion layer is broken, you’ll forever rely on unicorn closers or founder-only selling.

But when it’s dialed in?
You scale. With confidence. With clarity. And with consistency.
