Rethinking Funnels: From Connection to Conversion
Boldly Introverted
Rethink your sales funnel as an honest, trust-building invitation — not a manipulative machine. “False urgency, bait-and-switch webinars, overpromising freebies — these aren't just sleazy tactics. They’re trust killers. And once that trust is gone, your funnel can’t recover. Because people remember how you made them feel — not what you offered.” If funnels make you cringe, this episode is your permission slip to build something better.

“You don’t have to do everything. You just have to do what’s enough—for you, right now. That’s what sustainable looks like.”
Digital products and subscriptions get sold as the holy grails of online income—but what does it really take to make them work? In this episode, we unpack the realities of both models: the energy, the backend, the emotional labor, and the sustainability of it all.
If you’ve ever felt pulled in different directions—launch a product! build a membership! automate your funnel!—this is your permission to slow down and choose the path that actually fits you. We talk about what each model requires, how to align with your current season, and why yes, you can do both—if you do it intentionally.
HERE ARE THE KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:
Digital products require more than a good idea.
They need visibility, trust, and a basic funnel. If you’re not getting traction, it doesn’t mean your product is bad—it might just need time to circulate.
Subscriptions are about rhythm, not just revenue.
Recurring income sounds dreamy, but subscriptions are ongoing relationships. Make sure your energy and systems can support that kind of consistency.
Match your model to your capacity—not to a trend.
Burnout often starts by ignoring your season. The model that works is the one you can actually show up for, even when things get weird or slow.
Yes, you can do both—just not all at once.
Layer your offers instead of launching everything at the same time. Reuse systems. Let each piece support the next. That’s how you scale without the scramble.
INSPIRED ACTION (Optional):
Grab a blank sheet of paper and draw two columns: “Digital Products” and “Subscriptions.” Under each, list what excites you—and what drains you. What feels light? What feels heavy? Use this to decide your next move.
