Funnel strategies are a valuable tool in marketing promotion.  First, identify a target customer.  The top of the funnel is the awareness of the target customer.  The funnel then narrows as customers become interested, desire and then take action on the promotion resulting in a purchase.  This podcast discusses how to use the funnel strategy to improve the marketing results and return-on-investment.
