Is this thing on? Hey, what's up, future funnel closers?

It's your boy hardcore closer.

Ryan Stewman, founder of funnel closer.

And man, I have a special guest with me today that I'll bring on in second and

introduce. But I've got some exciting news for you

know, there is a way to make seven figures as a funnel closer out there.

This business is huge.

It's not going anywhere for a long time.

And I brought somebody who's a shining example of that on with me on this

training today. So say, what's up to my good friend Matt

Ganzak? Yeah, what's up, man?

What's going on, man? Thanks for having me.

Well, first of all, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to hang

out with us for a few minutes here and kind of share your success stories.

So that it not so that me and you can brag about what's changed in your life or

what's changed in my life because through being a funnel closer, but so that you

can inspire others that get the opportunity with the same thing.

So if you would take a couple minutes and kind of just tell us a little bit about

yourself and your back story.

Yeah, for sure.

First of all, you know I love what you're doing.

Here it's definitely something that I've been thinking about for years because

there are so many small business owners out there and so many people who need

this thing. And I find myself, you know, sounding

like a broken record, telling small business owners whether it's a mechanic,

shop, a, you know, car lot, whatever.

These people are putting up these

websites and people aren't going to the websites.

They're not looking at all the pages and really at the end of the day, like it hit

the like hammer on the head of the nail when you said this is the future.

Building these funnels.

So when I saw this and saw what you were

doing, I was like, man, we need, we need to get on board with this because this is

the future.

And my back story is actually in sales.

I started in sales.

I was selling like weight, you know,

lifting equipment and treadmills and stuff like that back in the day.

And you know, just, you know, trying to hawk whatever.

Like I was even selling computers at one point because the computer rush was

actually, you know, something really cool and, you know, the late nineties and so

forth and. I've sold just about everything and you

know, I was even selling.

Nike Air basically when I was selling

radio and broadcasting and it got to the point that you know the future technology

and i told myself when I was doing radio and advertising, I was like, I will not

ever be a part of a dead and dying technology ever again.

What I need to do is get in front of the latest and greatest of what small

business owners want because I'm not going to go and keep pounding the

pavement selling radio or selling these.

Things that people don't actually use and

anymore. I mean i got Spotify on my phone.

I know you got Spotify too because you were sharing some stuff but people aren't

using radio like that.

So when you know, it was like, alright,

well I need to start figuring how to build websites, right?

So I started learning, started teaching myself this was like 12 years ago,

started learning how to build a WordPress site, put in online, do all this stuff,

you know, getting hacked and this and that and all the crazy things that go

along with, you know, building websites.

And then at the end of the day it was

like. All right.

I'm good at this.

Now let me go start selling.

So i'm i just want to say this though.

Yeah, you're right.

Back in the day when you had to upload WordPress and all that other stuff you

would get, I've had several my sites get hacked.

I forgot all about the golden days of sales for.

Matt it was funny.

So yeah, like, I would go out and sell

something and put it online and I'm all stocked.

The clients all stoked.

It goes online.

They're like, now, where's our traffic? Where's this?

Where's that? What's going on?

And I'm just like, man, fulfillment is a pain.

Like, you know, I need to be on one of the two sides.

I'm, you know, out selling the funnel.

I'm out selling the, you know, small

business. Then I'm coming back.

I'm doing the fulfillment.

I'm making sure our people get paid.

I'm doing the taxes and doing all this other stuff.

And I'm just like, this is completely nonsense.

So it got to the point where I was like somebody needs to be going out there and

selling funnels, just like people are out selling cars, just like people are out

selling houses. A funnel is basically a property.

It's just.

Like a house, you gotta build it from the

ground up.

You have to, you know, get started with

the framework, get started with, you know, writing the copy and getting things

on. But what the point, what's the point in

having a house? What's the point in having a property if

no one goes through it? So you got to build the traffic, you need

to build the roads and start bringing people in.

So when it got to the point that I was out there selling funnels, it would be,

you know, hey, I'm stoked.

I just sold it 5010 thousand twenty

thousand dollar. Funnel i'm excited.

I'm stoked.

I'm on top of the world.

It's like 4 years ago.

And then I would go out and sell another

one and try to sell another one.

And then the first one I sold, they come

back to me and they're like, hey, where's our funnel?

Where's our site? I'm like, ohh man, I need to get that

done. Like, I'm behind.

So I go and.

Through that same thing.

Same thing here.

Man, that's hilarious.

Man, you go out of sales mode.

Like when you're in sales mode, you're

just pumping and you know money's coming in.

Business is happy.
