Chicago AI Business Network

(PLEASE READ THE DISCLAIMER AT THE BOTTOM)

The exact AI sales funnel strategy we used to bring in 256 paying customers in 90 days, broken down step by step for solopreneurs and small business owners. No theory. The actual system, the actual numbers, and the AI tools that ran it.

Most owners hear "sales funnel" and picture a complicated tech stack they'll never have time to build. That was true in 2020. In 2026, AI writes the pages, the emails, the ads and the follow-up, and it does it in an afternoon. The question is no longer whether you can build a funnel. It's whether you know which one to build.

This session answers that.

What we cover:
• What a sales funnel actually is, explained in plain English, and why most small businesses are running one without knowing it
• The low-ticket funnel: why a small first purchase beats a free lead magnet in 2026, and how it pays for your ads while it fills your pipeline
• The 90-day breakdown: the offer we sold, the price we set, the traffic we used, the AI-written pages and emails, and how it turned into 256 customers
• Where AI does the heavy lifting now: copy, landing pages, follow-up sequences, ad variations and lead scoring, and which tools we actually use for each
• The three mistakes that kill low-ticket funnels, and how to spot them in your own numbers within a week
• A simple template you can copy to map your first funnel before the call ends

Who it's for: solopreneurs, freelancers, consultants, coaches, agency owners and small business owners who sell a product or service and want a predictable way to get customers. No marketing background needed. If you already run funnels, you'll leave with the AI workflow that cut our build time by 80 percent.
Bring: a notebook and one offer you sell, or want to sell, for under $100. Optional: your current numbers, so you can compare against what we show.

Where: online. The link appears here once you RSVP "Going." About 60 minutes including Q&A, no cost.

This is a Bridges Network event, hosted across all of our city groups at once. Because of the size of the audience, it runs as a one-to-many presentation with a Q&A session at the end. Attendee microphones will stay off; questions go through the chat and we answer as many as we can.

There will be an offer made at the end of the session for those who want to go deeper. You do not need to buy anything to get the full strategy. Everything described above is covered before the offer.

Getting attention is one thing. Turning it into paying clients is another. This session teaches you the system that connects the two.
Bridge Agency hosts an interactive learning session on sales funnels: what they are, why they matter, and how to build one that fits your business. We'll go stage by stage with real examples and a live exercise, so you leave with something you can use right away.
You'll learn how to:

• Map the path your clients take from stranger to customer
• Capture leads with a simple offer and landing page
• Follow up consistently so interested people don't slip away
• Run a structured sales conversation that feels natural
• Measure what's working using five simple numbers
• Use AI tools to draft follow-ups, summarize calls and spot warm leads

Who it's for: entrepreneurs, small business owners and professionals across Chicago who want a clearer, more reliable way to win clients. Beginners welcome.
Bring: your questions and one offer you'd like to sell more of.
