You have read DotCom Secrets and understand the value ladder. You have read Expert Secrets and know how to craft your message.

That is exactly what the Funnel Hackers Cookbook provides. It is a visual blueprint guide containing 22 complete funnel plans, each showing the page sequence, the key elements on every page, and the purpose each page serves in the conversion process.

What Is the Funnel Hackers Cookbook?

Funnel Hackers Cookbook PDF

The Funnel Hackers Cookbook is a reference book by Russell Brunson structured like an actual cookbook. Instead of recipes for food, it contains "recipes" for sales funnels - step-by-step blueprints showing exactly how to build each funnel type.

The book is organised into three sections:

Ingredients - the individual page elements that make up a funnel. Headlines, opt-in forms, video players, order forms, countdown timers, testimonial blocks, bullet lists, guarantee badges, and more. This section explains what each element does and when to use it.

Recipes - 22 complete funnel blueprints. Each recipe shows the full page sequence (landing page → sales page → order form → upsell → thank you), which elements belong on each page, and how the pages connect. You can follow any recipe step by step.

Funnel Types - guidance on which recipe to use for your specific business model. Selling a book? Use the free-plus-shipping funnel. Selling a course? Use the webinar funnel. Generating leads? Use the squeeze page funnel.

The 22 Funnel Blueprints

The Cookbook includes blueprints for every major funnel type:

Lead Generation Funnels:

  • Squeeze page funnel
  • Survey funnel
  • Summit funnel
  • Lead magnet funnel

Sales Funnels:

  • Free-plus-shipping funnel (for books and physical products)
  • Self-liquidating offer funnel
  • Tripwire funnel
  • Sales letter funnel
  • Video sales letter funnel
  • Product launch funnel

Webinar Funnels:

  • Live webinar funnel
  • Automated webinar funnel
  • Webinar registration funnel

Membership and Continuity Funnels:

  • Membership funnel
  • Continuity funnel

High-Ticket Funnels:

  • Application funnel
  • Phone sales funnel

Other Funnels:

  • Affiliate bridge funnel
  • Homepage funnel
  • Thank-you page funnel
  • Cancellation funnel
  • Cart funnel

Each blueprint includes a visual diagram of the page flow, a list of required elements for each page, and notes on what makes each funnel type effective.

How It Compares to the Other Books

Book What It Teaches Format
DotCom Secrets Strategy - value ladders, traffic types, email sequences Theory + frameworks
Expert Secrets Messaging - storytelling, belief building, webinar scripts Persuasion + scripts
Funnel Hackers Cookbook Implementation - what each funnel looks like, page by page Visual blueprints
Traffic Secrets Traffic - how to drive visitors to your funnels Traffic strategies

The Cookbook is the practical companion to DotCom Secrets. Where DotCom Secrets explains why you need a value ladder and how funnels work conceptually, the Cookbook shows you what each funnel actually looks like when built.

If you read all four books in order - DotCom Secrets (strategy), Expert Secrets (messaging), Funnel Hackers Cookbook (implementation), Traffic Secrets (traffic) - you have the complete framework for building a funnel-based business.

Who Should Read This Book?

The Cookbook is right for you if:

  • You understand funnel concepts but are not sure what to actually build
  • You want a visual reference to follow while building in ClickFunnels or another funnel builder
  • You are an affiliate marketer and want to see what effective bridge funnels look like
  • You have read DotCom Secrets and want the implementation guide
  • You prefer visual diagrams over long-form text explanations

The Cookbook is less useful if:

  • You have not yet learned the fundamentals of sales funnels (start with DotCom Secrets first)
  • You are looking for copywriting and messaging advice (that is Expert Secrets)
  • You already have extensive experience building funnels and know your page structures

How to Get the Funnel Hackers Cookbook Free

The physical book is free - you pay shipping only ($7.95 in the US, varies internationally). You also get instant access to the digital PDF download and bonus training videos when you order.

Like Russell Brunson's other free books, this uses the "free-plus-shipping" funnel model - ironically, one of the 22 funnel types blueprinted inside the book itself.

Final Verdict

The Funnel Hackers Cookbook is the most practical book in Russell Brunson's collection. It does not teach theory - it shows you exactly what to build. If you are sitting down to create a funnel and need to know which pages to include, what elements to put on each page, and how to connect them, this is the reference guide you want open next to your laptop.

It is free, it takes an hour to read, and it will save you days of guessing about funnel structure. Combined with a ClickFunnels free trial and the templates included in the platform, you can go from blueprint to live funnel in a single afternoon.
