🎥 ▶️ How to Build Funnels in Zenler — Full Walkthrough 2026

⭐ Step 1 — Access the Zenler Funnel Builder

From your dashboard: 👉 Marketing → Funnels

Click: 👉 Create Funnel

You'll now choose your funnel type.

Zenler includes templates for:
✔ Lead Magnet Funnel
✔ Video Series Funnel
✔ Live Funnel
✔ Email Trigger Funnel
✔ Survey Funnel (with branching logic)

Each has a pre-designed structure so beginners never get lost.

⭐ Step 2 — Choose Your Funnel Type (Start With a Lead Magnet)

If this is your first funnel, start simple: 👉 Lead Magnet Funnel

This creates two pages straight away:

Opt-In Page
Thank You Page

You can then add extra steps to link into courses, a webinar registration, or a sales page — as easily as cloning or adding a new step.

⭐ Step 3 — Set Your Funnel Goal & Basic Info

Add:
✔ Funnel Name
✔ Description
✔ Product (if selling)
✔ Email sequence to attach (optional)

Naming example: "Instagram Cheat Sheet Funnel"

⭐ Step 4 — Build Your Funnel Pages

Inside the funnel editor, you'll see the funnel flow.

✔ Opt-in Page This is where visitors submit their email.
✔ Thank-You Page Confirms success + previews next steps.
✔ Sales Page (optional) For tripwires and upsells.
✔ Webinar Registration (for webinar funnels) Emails + reminders linked automatically.
✔ Checkout Page Sell your course, membership, or digital product.

Each page can be edited using Zenler's drag-and-drop builder.

⭐ Step 5 — Edit Your Opt-In Page (Your Funnel Entry)

The opt-in page should include:

✔ Clear headline — what problem you solve
✔ Benefit-driven subheadline — address the pain point, the value you're giving, and the transformation at the end
✔ Opt-in form — name and email
✔ Clean design — so people clearly know what you're giving them the moment they land

⭐ Step 6 — Edit Your Thank-You Page (Guide Their Next Step)

The thank-you page:
✔ Confirms the submission
✔ Sets expectations
✔ Previews the lead magnet
✔ Can offer a low-ticket tripwire — for example, a low-ticket digital download sent via a follow-up email

Example message: "Your guide is on the way! Check your email within 5 minutes."

Add a CTA like:

Join Facebook community
Watch a related video
Take the next step
View an introductory offer

⭐ Step 7 — Add Email Automation to Your Funnel

This is where Zenler shines.

Inside Funnels → Automation:

✔ Trigger: Opt-in form submitted
✔ Action: Send email delivering lead magnet
✔ Action: Add tag "Lead Magnet A"
✔ Action: Start email sequence "Welcome Series A"

The moment someone opts in:

They receive the lead magnet
They get nurtured
They move toward your offer

Zero manual work.

⭐ Step 8 — Create Your Lead Magnet Delivery Email

Inside your sequence:

Email 1 includes:
✔ Friendly greeting
✔ Immediate access link
✔ What to expect next
✔ Soft CTA

This email builds trust fast.

⭐ Step 9 — Connect Your Offer (Optional But Powerful)

A lead magnet funnel becomes a sales funnel when you add:

✔ Tripwire — a low-price product offered immediately
✔ Upsell — a mid-level product offered after checkout
✔ Order bump — an add-on product shown on the checkout page

Zenler includes all three — built in. This is where creators make automated revenue.

⭐ Step 10 — Add a Webinar Step (For Webinar Funnels)

If you're building a webinar funnel:

Zenler automates:
✔ Registration
✔ Reminder emails
✔ Replay access
✔ Upsell offers
✔ Follow-up sequences

Live classes integrate directly with Zoom.

No other course platform does this better.

⭐ Step 11 — Add Tracking & Analytics

Each funnel shows:
✔ Opt-in rate
✔ Conversion rate
✔ Sales
✔ Page views
✔ Email engagement

You INSTANTLY see what's working — use this data to improve your headlines, update your design, and refine your offers.

Funnels become better every week.

⭐ Step 12 — Publish Your Funnel

Once your funnel is ready: 👉 Set to Published

You'll receive:
✔ Funnel link
✔ Custom domain link
✔ Embedded form
✔ Social sharing options

Now you can drive traffic from YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, your blog, email, or ads.

Your funnel is LIVE.
