How to get quality traffic on a single page website that converts

The thoughts I am going to say here are outcome of a hard learning out of my personal life (details not needed) but this relates to business as well. Starting a business is first step but to take it to next level needs significant efforts. 3M = Money, Mind, Mass: you need to put in right proportion, at right time, at right places to keep it going. Often you succeed. However there is always a possibility of unknown. This unknown could be small, medium, big or giant to stop you. And unfortunately when everything is going fine and you are near to achieve your targets you meet this unknown, the giant: a situation when everything is going good but all of a sudden everything put on a halt with a massive jerk.
