    • Tutorials to solve any doubts about a product or service.
    • Audiovisual pills with infographics on data of interest to your audience.
    • Or even to summarise and highlight the most relevant information in the posts you publish on your website.
  • CONSIDERATION PHASE
    • You can take advantage of the interest shown by some users to show them trends, data, etc. and guide them so that they can move forward. Show them the latest news in your sector.
  • DECISION PHASE
    • what distinguishes you from the competition? Why can you solve the problems that your audience has? Tell them. They have the floor, so give them proof with testimonials, webinars... Show them whatever you feel like, but go straight to the heart. Your user already knows what their need or problem is.
  • LOYALTY PHASE
    • You know that we always leave the best for last. That's why we have landed on loyalty as the last phase that your customers reach. You have to see how much time you have invested in converting strange visitors into customers of your company. Now, you only have the final push left: make them loyal to it. Make them repeat their experience with you again and again.

And speaking of repeat business, the conversion funnel has evolved in recent years into the flywheel. For HubSpot, this is the transformation of the funnel itself. Its evolution. And it takes into account that the buying cycle is a continuous cycle and not a journey with an end.
