What is a marketing funnel?
A marketing funnel is a journey that your prospects take with you from the time they become aware of your business till they turn into paying customers. Shaped like a funnel there are four main stages to a marketing funnel that narrow down with the last stage being satisfied customers that have paid for your product.
The funnel narrows towards the bottom because not every prospect gets converted into a customer. Every business aims to improve the efficiency of marketing (sales) funnel and to increase the ratio of conversion.
We will go through the basic tiers of a sales funnel.
Awareness
It is the first stage where you create awareness of your brand. You do this by creating SEO-optimised content, publishing white papers, and getting backlinks to get and increase traffic to your business site. Your efforts may also include social media, online ads, videos and direct email.
Interest
Once prospects show interest in your product or service, you have to engage them. You will be using targeted content, newsletters, classes, drip campaign emails, webinars, classes and more. You aim to educate the prospects, address their pains and offer them solutions with the products that you intend to sell.
Evaluation
It is during this stage that you have to be the best salesman. Highlight your value addition, give the prospects options. Let the prospects know what advantages your product or service has over the competition. Show them videos and product reviews. Give the customers demos and trials.
Conversion
This is where you convert a prospective customer into a buyer. Throw in your best offer. Offer free shipping that your competitors don’t give a complimentary product, a discount or a coupon. Make sure that your customers buy the product or service when they check out of your store.
Once you have sold your product, you have the obligation of offering after-sales service to the customers and retain their loyalty. Keep in touch with your customers and offer them regular discounts, update them on new offerings and try to convert them into repeat customers. For this, you will need to keep in touch through regular emails, video demonstrations and engaging them on social media.

What is ClickFunnels?
The brainchild of Russel Brunson, ClickFunnels was launched in October 2014. The first popular funnel building software, ClickFunnels helped novices build effective sales funnels with ease and in quick time.
It has helped many businesses build websites that convert. Without ClickFunnels these businesses would have to spend a fortune on app and sales funnel designers.
Having added more features over the years, the platform is now the most successful funnel building software around.
Along with an easy to use and a versatile landing page builder, ClickFunnels gives entrepreneurs the help needed to convert leads into sales.
It also offers the following packs to businesses in its comprehensive package.
- Affiliate Management System
- Webinar Hosting System
- Course Hosting System
- Email Marketing
- Shopping Cart and Checkout System
Over the past almost 16 years, ClickFunnels has built a huge community of more than 250,000 as of July 2020. The community can be quite helpful and along with an assorted collection of courses and tutorials on FunnelFix make life a lot easier for beginners trying to manoeuvre around ClickFunnels.
GrooveFunnels Vs ClickFunnels: Similar Features
Let us take a look at some of the similar features that both sales funnel building software offer. We will also highlight the differences between these similar functionalities across the two platforms.
Ease of Use
Both GrooveFunnels and ClickFunnels are pretty easy to use. You don’t need to have any coding skills to be able to create pages and sales funnels. Both platforms offer the drag and drop feature which ensures that even a beginner can easily get started in no time.
This ease of use lets you devote more time to improving the efficiency of your website and save you plenty of money which you would otherwise have to spend on web developers.
Funnel Templates
Both platforms have a wide variety of ready to use templates which you can use to build your web pages and funnel pages. Being fully customizable, you can modify these templates to suit your branding and business.
GrooveFunnels, as well as ClickFunnels, have marketplaces where you can share funnel templates with other users. While ClickFunnels allows you to share a clone of your funnel page, GrooveFunnels allows you to import funnel pages and hack them.
Creating Memberships
Both the platforms facilitate the creation of a membership portal or granting special access to members. GrooveFunnels even lets you set different levels of access for various members. This makes it easy to conduct online courses for paid members.
GrooveFunnels is scheduled to launch its Membership app, GroveMember, later this year. GrooveMember, a membership CMS (Content Management System) will have a lot of features and customisation options.
GrooveMembers will let you give your members different levels of access in the member’s area. You will also have the option of launching a drip marketing campaign.
Affiliate Management Tool
Affiliate marketing programs are important tools to rope in new customers and increase sales. How much you can get out of your affiliates depends on how effectively you manage them.
GrooveFunnels offers you the entire affiliate management software for free. There is no limitation on access and you can use it along with GrooveSell even when you are on the Base Plan which is for free.
For the same feature, you will have to upgrade and pay $297 per month on ClickFunnels. Only then will you get access to BackPack which is the ClickFunnels’ Affiliate Management tool.
While GrooveFunnels use their own platform to handle all affiliates, ClickFunnel uses a third party platform called Tipalti.
An efficient built-in Affiliate Management System can be used to define commissions, monitor affiliates, supply materials and more. The very fact that GrooveFunnels offers the complete system and GrooveSell for free makes GrooveFunnels a very attractive start, particularly for beginners.
With GrooveFunnels rates, being the most competitive in the market, they can graduate to a pro account once their business picks up.
Email Marketing Platform
Email marketing is an important tool in creating awareness and in customer relations, and helps a business segment leads, create email and drip campaigns, schedule follow-ups and much more. GrooveFunnels will launch an Email Marketing Platform that will allow businesses to launch email marketing campaigns.
GrooveMail will be a fully functional Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system that will be based on the GrooveFunnels platform.
ClickFunnels offers a built-in feature called ‘follow-up funnels’. But you will only have access to this feature if you subscribe to the $297 per month plan. On ‘follow-up funnels’ you can engage your customers with emails or SMS messages.
However, since ClickFunnels is not an Email Service Provider, you will need an external Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) service provider to correspond with your customers.
Learning Curve
Both GrooveFunnels and ClickFunnels are as user friendly as sales building platforms can be. Businesses can easily set up a platform on which to run their businesses even from scratch without knowledge of coding.
But when it comes to making full use of the features on the platforms, the learning curve is quite steep. You will get better with a lot of practice and that will enable you to unlock the functionality of the features. So although the learning process is a bit slow, it is surmountable with the able support of the support teams of both the platforms and the communities.
ClickFunnels has a plethora of books and courses to help beginners create funnels and make full use of their features. GrooveFunnels, on the other hand, holds weekly live training sessions which you can access.
The communities of both platforms are very helpful in assisting and resolving problems. Both platforms are on par where the learning curve is concerned.
Sharing Funnels
You can share your funnel with others on ClickFunnels. When you want to share your copy with another user, ClickFunnels will give you an URL that will give any other user a cloned copy of your funnel.
GrooveFunnels, on the other hand, allows you to import any page on the web. You can then hack the design of the page and use it.
Sales Platform/Shopping Cart
There is no need for any third-party software for a shopping cart when using ClickFunnels. The software has a built-in shopping cart feature and a checkout system that you can safely use to sell your products online.
GrooveFunnels has the free GrooveSell app to help you in your transactions. Efficient sales and affiliate management apps facilitate safe and smooth payments. You can receive payments for digital and physical goods as well as services and subscriptions.
GrooveFunnels also allows you to create check out pages to your liking and with high conversion rates.
A/B Testing
A/B testing is the best way in which you can optimise your marketing campaign and sales funnel. You can launch two versions of the same funnel and compare the performance of both before zeroing on the better performing funnel.
GrooveFunnels, at launch, will not allow you to do the testing. The feature will be introduced a few months after the launch.
ClickFunnels, on the other hand, allows you to do A/B testing. You can split test your funnels and check which one performs better, helping you optimise your sales and marketing campaign.
Affiliate Program
Excellent affiliate programs on both platforms allow you to earn a substantial amount of money as soon as you sign in. You can earn money even as you are building your sales funnels.
You can earn 20% recurring commission on ClickFunnels for your referrals as long as they remain active customers. There are incentive programs like a chance to win a car in which you can participate.
If you can muster enough referrals your recurring commission can even rise to 40%. ClickFunnels, however, has stopped offering tier two commissions to affiliates.
GrooveFunnels’ GrooveSell app has an inbuilt affiliate program. In fact, GrooveFunnels has two affiliate programs separately for free members and paid customers.
Free members can earn 20% recurring commission for a tier one referral and 5% for a tier two referral.
Paid members can earn even more. They get a 40% recurring on tier one for a referral and 20% for a tier two referral. If you can get one of the influencers to introduce the platform to their thousands of followers, there is no saying how much money you can earn on the affiliate program.
You don’t have to sign up for an affiliate program on GrooevFunnels. When you join as a member, you are automatically signed up for the affiliate program. All the promotional tools, marketing materials and links will be at your service and you only have to make good use of them.
What is impressive about the GrooveFunnels affiliate program is how it links you to your referral for life. Once someone that you have referred to GrooveFunnels has signed up, the person’s affiliate ID is hardcoded to your ID. This ties your referrals to you for life.
This means even if your referrals switch devices when upgrading, they can’t shake you off. You are assured of your commission with GrooveFunnels come what may.
Online Communities
The online communities of both platforms are extremely helpful and will give practical advice to anyone who seeks it. GrooveFunnels’ official Facebook page has more than 36.000 followers.
ClickFunnels has, over almost 16 years, amassed a following of almost 250,000. You can rely on online communities of both the platforms for advice on building funnels and using the platform.
Customer Support and Service
ClickFunnels provides fast and customer support via live chat and emails in any problem you may have. You may even get dedicated support and VIP phone assistance depending on which plan you subscribe to.
GrooveDesk is Groove Funnels dedicated support app which addresses all the concerns of the customers. The support team is prompt and very helpful. They have a robust ticket system and the live chat gives you great real-time assistance when you have a problem.
GrooveFunnels Vs ClickFunnels: Advantages and Comparison
Both GrooveFunnels and ClickFunnels have advantages over the other platform. We will checkout which platform has which advantages and compare them.
Video Hosting
GrooveFunnels will have its own video hosting solution, GrooveVideo, most probably introduced with its official launch in July 2020. It will be like having a built-in Wistia or Vimeo on the platform and that is what GrooveFunnels will be offering its users.
GrooveVideo software will give users many customisation options along with the ability to add tags and calls to action (CTA) with each video. Moreover, on GrooveVideo, users will get to do A/B testing. The software will also provide an in-depth analysis of each piece of content.
Video hosting is one important tool that ClickFunnels doesn’t have. That places it at a great disadvantage vis-a-vis the GrooveFunnels platform. The ClickFunnels platform cannot support video hosting by itself.
If you want to post a video on a ClikcFunnels sales funnel, you will have to use a third-party video platform like YouTube and then embed the link in your sales funnel.
FunnelFix
FunnelFix is ClickFunnels’ one big advantage in the funnel making software world. Russel Brunson has assembled a huge collection of courses and training sessions on online marketing. This collection, to which ClickFunnels subscribers gain access, is a source of great knowledge which benefits both newcomers and experienced marketers.
Known as the “Netflix of online marketing” the access of subscribers to FunnelFix is limited by the plan to which they subscribe. Only Platinum and Collective plan subscribers get to enjoy the full advantage of FunnelFix.
Calendar
ClickFunnels does not have a calendar feature. This puts users who want to book appointments with their clients in an easy and streamlined manner at a huge disadvantage. Integrating such a tool with their website will cost users additional money.
GrooveFunnels lets businesses schedule appointments with potential and existing customers with the GrooveCalendar tool. These appointments are seamlessly integrated into the businesses marketing funnels.
Help desk
GrooveFunnles will launch GrooveDesk soon after the official launch. This app will let users submit support tickets and access an in-depth knowledge base. It will also provide real-time assistance via live chat.
ClickFunnels does not have a help desk and it doesn’t look as though they intend to launch one any time soon. They rely on their FunnelFix courses to help users work their way around any problems that they encounter.
Blog Feature and SEO
GrooveFunnels’ website loads faster than or as fast as any other site on the web. That is because GrooveFunnels uses a progressive JavaScript called Vue.js. It also complies with Google’s mobile-first indexing requirements which help in SEO optimisation.
These features, SEO optimisation of pages and the preloading of the entire HTML structure ensure that GrooveFunnels site loads very fast. Loading times greatly affect search rankings of a website and matter when a customer launches a search
ClickFunnels use older technology which does not load fast enough. Another disadvantage that ClickFunnels’ subscribers have is that they can’t blog on the platform ClickFunnels can’t provide them with a blogging platform to blog on. Fresh content is an important factor that contributes to SEO optimisation and search rankings. The lack of a blogging platform places its users at a disadvantage vis a vis GrooveFunnels users.
GrooveFunnels will have GrooveBlog – a fully functional platform that will be launched by early 2021. GroovrFunnels also make sure that their pages are SEO optimised. Fast loading times with blogging features ensure that GrooveFunnels pages will perform a lot better where SEO is concerned, than that of ClickFunnels.
Utility to Marketers
ClickFunnels is a very useful platform for marketers to get a feel about sales funnels, building and using them. The tools on the platform let you familiarise yourself with the intricacies of effective web design.
Many businesses benefited from the ClickFunnels and made the fullest use of the platform to further their business interest and to market their wares.
Today ClickFunnels is probably the most popular sales funnel building software in the world. But ClickFunnels is just that. It helps you build great sales funnels. It does not let you market entirely on its platform. You will have to tap a few of the apps that you require from other platforms and that mean additional costs.
GrooveFunnels has come up with a complete package where businesses can run their whole marketing operation on one platform. There is nothing that marketers could want for once they subscribe to GrooveFunnels Platinum Plan.
The same flexibility of designing websites and funnel pages as thst of ClickFunnels, GrroveEmail, GrooveVideo and GrooveBlog give GrroveFunnels a clear advantage over ClickFunnels. Given the pricing, GrooveFunnels is going to be the go-to platform marketing platform (not funnel building alone) for businesses and marketers before long.
GrooveFunnels Vs Clickfunnels: Handicaps
Both GrooveFunnels and ClickFunnels have handicaps. But GrooveFunnels is in a position to address those disadvantages while ClickFunnels will find it very difficult to overcome them.
ClickFunnels Handicaps
While ClickFunnels has been the favourite and leading platform for funnel building, it has several shortcomings that give Groovefunnels a clear advantage. Let us look at some of the flaws that ClickFunnels has.
Restrictive Basic Plan
The number of funnels, pages and visitors that subscribers for the Basic Plan are allowed to have is very limited. Plus they don’t have access to important marketing tools like affiliate management tools and email automation.
Any business wanting access to these tools has to upgrade to the $297 pan, effectively making this the basic plan.
No Video Hosting
Not being able to host videos on its own platform is another drawback that ClickFunnels has. A user has to use external platforms like Vimeo or Facebook to post the video and then provide a link on the ClickFunnels platform.
GrooveFunnels, on the other hand, has the GrooveVodeo tool which will allow users to upload a video directly to the GrooveFunnels platform.
No Calendar and Helpdesk
Calendar and Helpdesk features are extremely useful tools in marketing. ClickFunnels does not provide either of these.
GrooveFummels, on the other hand, provides both these essential tools which will be a big help to subscribers.
Weak SEO and No Blogging Tool
ClickFunnels has neglected SEO optimisation of its pages. SEO optimisation is more important now than ever before if your pages have to rank higher in searches. The lack of a blogging tool means that there is no fresh content. This gives users no chance to post fresh content and improve their SEO optimisation.
GrooveFunnels uses a progressive Java script that helps in search rankings as its loading speed is faster and it confirms to Google’s mobile-first indexing criteria. Its blogging tool GrooveBlog allows users to post fresh content thereby helping in SEO optimisation.
GrooveFunnels Handicaps
Even though it is still in beta, GrooveFunnels uses a superior technology than ClickFunnels. GrooveFunnels has also given considerable thought about all the tools that will be needed in a marketing platform. The rollout though will be spread over a while.
Still in Beta
GrooveFunnels is still in Beta and will officially launch somewhere in July 2020. No fixed date has been cited but the launch will be sooner rather than later.
Even after it has launched, all the platform’s tools will not be available to users. The road map for the delivery of various tools extends well into 2021.
However, GrooveFunnels team has shown that they are flexible and willing to pay heed to community requests. In fact, on the request of the community, GrooveFunnels pushed back the development of GrooveWebinars and released GrooveVideo and GrooveMember.
Integrated Sales Pipeline
GrooveFunnels decided they will not create a sales pipeline on their platform. They reasoned that PipeDrive’s performance has been exceptional. Hence although the sales pipeline will not be based on their platform they will integrate with PipeDrive. That is the only app that GrooveFunnels will not be hosting on its platform.
Community
GrooveFunnels are still in beta and their community is not very large but is substantial. ClickFunnels has built a very large community of over 250,000 over more than 15 years.
GrooveFunnels already has more than 75,000 users. At the rate that they are progressing, it won’t be long before they cross 100.000 users.
GrooveFunnels Vs ClickFunnels: Plans and Pricing
GrooveFunnels easily wins the race in the pricing war, in particular, considering the functionalities that they are offering compared to ClickFunnels.
GrooveFunnels: Plans and Costs
GrooveFunnels offers four plans to its users. They are the Base, Silver, Gold and Platinum Plans.
Base Plan
Base Plan is free for all comers. No need to check again. It’s free alright! The plan includes GroovePages Lite, GrooveSell and GrooveAffiliate. As soon as you register you are automatically registered for the affiliate program where you will get a 20% recurring commission per referral.

This life membership plan is open for only a limited time and GrooveFunnels could withdraw the offer sooner rather than later. It is believed that the offer will be withdrawn with the official launch of the platform.
After the official launch, GrooveFunnels Platinum plan will cost $299 per month. That means you will get a lifetime membership for far less than half of what it will cost you for a year after the launch.
ClickFunnels: Plans and Costs
ClickFunnels lets you use their platform free for 14 days before you have to choose a package and start paying. This 14-day trial gives you a great opportunity to try out all the functionalities of the platform and decide which package you want to subscribe for.

Is GrooveFunnels an alternative to ClickFunnels?
GrooveFunnels is much more than just an alternative to ClickFunnels.
ClickFunnels is a training and coaching platform on which businesses get good experience in funnel building and their use. It has a good landing page builder with some functionality that allows you to sell online courses.
GrooveFunnels, on the other hand, is a complete online marketing platform on which you can fully promote and market your business. GrooveFunnels will do all of what ClickFunnels does and better, and still have functionalities which ClickFunnels cannot provide.
Is GrooveFunnels cheaper than ClickFunnels?
Definitely yes! And you get a lot more than you get on ClickFunnels at a much lesser cost.
GrooveFunnels offers a free Basic Plan for a start.
To really compare the costs, we eill have to compare the access to all the options on the two platforms. That means we compare the cost of GrooveFunnels Platinum Plan vs ClickFunnels Collective Plan.
As we have seen in Plans and Costs, even after launching, GrooveFunnels Platinum Plan will cost you $299 per month ($3588 per year). You will have to pay more than that in only 3 months if you subscribe to the ClickFunnels Collective Plan.
The current offer from GrooveFunnels for a lifetime Platinum Plan subscription comes to $2256 if you pay 12 instalments over a year. That is the option that will cost you the maximum for lifetime use of the platform.
This amount is less than what you will pay ClickFunnels for 2 months if you opt for the Collective Plan.
It is therefore clear that GrooveFunnels is a lot cheaper than ClickFunnels.
Is GrooveFunnels Better than ClickFunnels?
The overall idea behind the GrooveFunnels venture is to provide businesses with a comprehensive marketing platform to promote and sell their products. Whereas ClickFunnels’ aim is to help businesses build sales funnels and learn to use them.
For the pricing and the sheer number of tools that GrooveFunnels places at your disposal, GrooveFunnels is a far better marketing platform than ClickFunnels on all counts and more.
GrooveFunnels Vs ClickFunnels: The Conclusion
GrooveFunnels is a complete marketing platform whereas ClickFunnels is a platform that teaches businesses to build funnels and helps them learn to improve their sales online.
GrooveFunnels, like ClickFunnels, also has a redoubtable landing page building tool in GroovePages. It also has a very good app in GrooveSell. In-platform GrooveMail, GrooveVideo and GrooveBlog give you tools that ClickFunnels cannot even give.
Add to that the numerous other tools that you have at your disposal and GrooveFunnels excellent SEO advantage because of its fast download speed and mobile-first indexing and GrooveBlog.
There is no doubt that GrooveFunnels is a far better platform than ClickFunnels is. We think you should take advantage of the lifetime Platinum Plan offer at the earliest before the offer is withdrawn.
