What is a funnel?
Consider the user’s journey. A funnel
represents the series of steps a user takes
from becoming aware of a product or service
all the way to converting or becoming a paid
customer, and ideally, a loyal customer and
advocate.

Website – users can land on any page and interact as they please. Funnels are more linear – sequence of actions with a goal in mind. Do you need a website? YES! Can your site be a funnel? Sure. Use site & blog to funnel people into your sequences.
