A free-to-paid funnel for a franchise licensing training provider
Insani Consulting teaches business owners how to build pre-franchise licensing systems. The concept is powerful but unfamiliar — the website had to educate, build authority, and move visitors from a free class to a paid RM 399 course.

The challenge
Pre-franchise licensing is a niche that most Malaysian business owners haven't heard of — even those who could benefit most from it. Insani Consulting's core offer (teaching founders how to legally structure and expand their business through a licensing model) is high-value, but it requires explanation before it can sell.
The old approach relied on social media posts that explained the concept but didn't anchor it to a credible brand. Without a website, prospects had no central place to validate the expertise, see pricing, or register — and qualified leads were dropping off before ever reaching the team.
What we built
- Dark navy authority design — a deep professional colour scheme signals credibility for a business-to-business training provider. This isn't a lifestyle brand; it's a serious advisory service, and the design reflects that.
- Concept-first hero section — the headline leads with the outcome ("Bina Francais Anda & Sini — Kelas Pembangunan Licensing") rather than features. Visitors immediately know what they're going to learn and why it matters.
- Visible free class as the entry point — the 45-minute free Intro Class is front and centre. Lowering the barrier to first contact is the fastest way to fill the funnel; the RM 399 Advance Class sells itself once the free session delivers value.
- Transparent pricing with context — RM 399 is shown with a clear discount callout alongside the potential revenue streams (consultation fees from RM 15,000, management fees from RM 15,000). Framing the price against the return removes sticker shock.
- Three audience segments — Business Owners/Founders, Managers/Executives, and Entrepreneurs each see themselves in the copy, reducing bounce from visitors who might otherwise think "this isn't for me."
- Free resource downloads — e-books on licensing, outlet management, and intellectual property serve dual purpose: they give value, and they position Insani Consulting as the authority on the subject before a single ringgit is spent.
- Testimonials and FAQ — social proof from past participants and a clear FAQ (booking, payment, refund policies) remove the final objections at the bottom of the page.
Design decisions worth noting
Light sites feel approachable; dark sites feel authoritative. For a business consulting brand selling high-stakes knowledge, authority wins. The navy + gold accent palette borrows from legal and financial services — fields Insani Consulting's clients aspire to operate like.
Asking for RM 399 cold is a hard sell for an unfamiliar concept. The free class converts at a much higher rate and pre-qualifies leads — attendees who don't see the value self-select out; those who do are primed to pay.
The result
Insani Consulting now has a standalone digital asset that educates, qualifies, and converts around the clock. The free class registration entry point keeps top-of-funnel volume high, while transparent pricing and strong testimonials do the heavy lifting for the paid upgrade. The site handles what used to require repeated DM conversations — explaining the concept, justifying the price, and getting a seat booked.
"Dulu kena explain panjang lebar dalam DM apa itu licensing. Sekarang orang dah faham bila diorang sampai WhatsApp kami — tinggal confirm slot je."
