Business

Full-stack direct-response funnel design. Maps entry through backend (lead-magnet, tripwire, core offer, backend continuity) with copy specs and a complete ascension ladder, validated against unit economics at every stage. Use when the user wants a structured, multi-step process to design a complete funnel architecture around an offer, from first-touch to lifetime value. Do NOT use for a single funnel stage in isolation or a question one atomic funnel skill can answer; use the dedicated single-stage skill instead.

Full Funnel Design

Estimated time: 30-40 minutes

This workflow designs a full-stack direct-response funnel: entry through backend, with the ascension ladder mapped and the math attached. A funnel is the SYSTEM for selling an offer, so the build starts from an offer at the top of mind and works outward through each stage. A funnel that does not pencil out at projected CAC is wishful thinking, so the agent surfaces economic assumptions early and lets the user fight them.

Steps

Step 1: Anchor the Offer (uses: funnels-offer)

Ask the user for the offer at the top of mind, in one sentence. If they do not have a primary offer yet, ask for the audience and back into one. A funnel without an offer at the top is infrastructure for nothing, so do not advance until there is a concrete offer or audience to design around.

Input: user's offer or audience description
Output: anchor offer (or audience to back an offer from)
Key focus: the funnel exists to sell THIS offer; name it first

Step 2: Infer the Target Audience (uses: sales-icp)

Infer the primary target audience from the anchor offer. Present the inferred target plus reasoning and ask the user to confirm or expand. This audience drives every stage that follows.

Input: anchor offer from Step 1
Output: confirmed primary target audience
Key focus: lock who the funnel is FOR before designing stages

Step 3: Infer the Traffic Mix (uses: market-funnel)

Infer the likely traffic mix for this funnel given the offer and audience. Present it with reasoning. Ask the user if they have an existing list, a pre-built audience, or a partner JV path, since any of those changes the architecture. Confirm or override.

Input: anchor offer, target audience
Output: confirmed traffic mix
Key focus: the real acquisition path, which dictates entry-stage design

Step 4: Infer the Unit Economics (uses: funnels-offer-pricing)

Infer the unit economics for the funnel design (target CAC, AOV, contribution margin, payback) from the offer and audience. Present the assumptions clearly and invite the user to override with real numbers. These numbers gate every stage decision downstream.

Input: anchor offer, target audience
Output: confirmed unit-economics assumptions
Key focus: a funnel that does not pencil out at projected CAC is wishful thinking

Step 5: Design the Entry Stage (Trust lock) (uses: funnels-lead-magnet)

Design the entry stage: the lead-magnet that breaks the Trust lock and earns first-touch opt-in. Use the offer, audience, and traffic mix. Show it to the user and ask whether to refine the entry stage or move on to the tripwire. Revise on feedback before advancing.

Input: anchor offer, audience, traffic mix
Output: entry-stage lead-magnet design
Key focus: break the Trust lock and capture the lead at first touch

Step 6: Design the Tripwire (Excuse lock) (uses: funnels-tripwire)

Design the tripwire: the low-risk first transaction that breaks the Excuse lock and converts a lead into a buyer. Use the offer, audience, traffic mix, and unit economics. Show it and ask whether to refine the tripwire or proceed to the core offer. Revise on feedback before advancing.

Input: anchor offer, audience, traffic mix, economics
Output: tripwire design
Key focus: the low-risk first transaction that turns leads into buyers

Step 7: Design the Core Offer (Want lock) (uses: funnels-offer)

Design the core offer: the primary transaction that breaks the Want lock. Use the offer, audience, the tripwire design, and unit economics. Show it and ask whether to refine the core offer or build the backend continuity. Revise on feedback before advancing.

Input: anchor offer, audience, tripwire design, economics
Output: core offer design
Key focus: the primary transaction the whole funnel is built to drive

Step 8: Design the Backend / Continuity (uses: funnels-continuity)

Design the backend continuity that drives lifetime value beyond the core transaction. Use the core offer, audience, and unit economics. This stage turns a one-time buyer into recurring revenue.

Input: core offer, audience, economics
Output: backend continuity design
Key focus: lifetime value, the part of the funnel that compounds

Step 9: Map the Ascension Ladder (uses: funnels-ascension-ladder)

Map the complete ascension ladder across entry, tripwire, core, and backend, with the math at each rung. Use all four stage designs plus the unit economics. Show the ladder to the user and ask whether to assemble the funnel architecture or refine the ladder and backend. Revise on feedback before advancing.

Input: entry, tripwire, core, backend designs, economics
Output: full ascension ladder with per-rung math
Key focus: how a buyer climbs from first touch to highest value, with the numbers

Step 10: Assemble the Funnel Architecture Document (uses: funnels-ascension-ladder)

Assemble the complete funnel architecture document. Open with target audience, traffic mix, and unit economics, then present each stage in order: entry (Trust lock), tripwire (Excuse lock), core offer (Want lock), backend continuity (lifetime value), and the full ascension ladder. Deliver it as the final artifact.

Input: all confirmed outputs from Steps 1 through 9
Output: complete funnel architecture document
Key focus: one coherent end-to-end architecture the user can build from
