Lots of New Releases Today, Plus Ideas for Creating Lead Magnets

Happy Thursday!

I’m rushing to get this out early for you this morning, as I’m going to get my booster shot today. (As you can see, that didn’t exactly work out as planned since it’s about 5 p.m. now.) I wandered over to the pharmacy yesterday to ask if they were doing the shots, and could I make an appointment and my pharmacist told me to come back this morning and he would fit me in. I’ve been a customer there for over 20 years (which made me realize that in May it will be 20 years since my first heart attack), so I was really pleased when he said to me, “We take care of our own here.”

I think you don’t always realize the value of those relationships that build up over time until someone points them out to you. It’s very easy to take them for granted just because they’ve built up little by little.

On another note, I came across this quote this morning, and I think it really sums up how I’m feeling about business and life in general right now…

“If you are working on something that really excites you, you don’t have to be pushed. The vision pulls you.” ~ Steve Jobs

I’m excited about my blog. I’m excited about my KDP project. I’m excited about parts of my PLR store, and others not so much. I’m really excited about a couple of projects that are coming up, and that I’m not quite ready to share. And I can see what he means with those words… the things that are pulling at me are not the things that must be done right at this moment, and I’ll be honest with you… it’s hard to get excited about something that your heart’s not really invested in. And it’s hard to do the things that must be done because I really only want to work on what’s fun for me.

There’s a lot going on this week in our low-content and PLR world. It almost feels like everyone came out of hibernation after a long holiday break!

So, here’s what I have for you this morning, starting with today’s read…

Today’s Read: Five Lead Magnet Ideas for Growing Your List

One of the things I’m excited about for my blog is my new lead magnet. It’s not ready yet, and I will let you know when it is, but I thought for today I’d share with you a few tips on things  you can use to create useful and helpful lead magnets for your new subscribers.

We all know that the most common and powerful way to grow our email lists is through lead magnets. Essentially, every time you sign up to participate in a bundle, a giveaway, or another online event, you are taking one of your products and turning it into a lead magnet for the customers of that event.

But you should also have lead magnets – yes, more than one – on your blog or website in order to attract potential customers that might not be coming from other events. These should be free or low-cost items that attract your potential customer into your buyers’ journey or email marketing campaign.

Here are five lead magnet ideas for growing your list…

Idea #1 – How-To Guides or eBooks

Short guides or how-to eBooks are attractive options to many readers. Most people use the internet to ask questions to solve a common problem and gain more knowledge about their favorite things, which is why eBooks and how-to guides are so attractive. Understanding your audience and their struggles are key to creating an effective eBook or guide that piques their interest.

Idea #2 – Email Courses or Workbooks

Email courses and workbooks are a more direct approach to solving your customers’ problems than just handing them an ebook and expecting them to figure it out. Instead of downloading all the material at once, your readers will receive their course through weekly and timed emails. Keeping the audience engaged is the goal here, and regular emails will also help you build the relationship and enhance the know, like and trust process between you and your new subscribers.

Idea #3 – Templates and Checklists

Of course, as a low content publisher, this is my favorite type of lead magnet to create. Easy, downloadable, and printable material that is helpful to your subscribers is the goal here. And I don’t know about you, but I always have templates and things floating around the half-done file that could easily be turned into a lead magnet for my site. These also make a great funnel starter, but more on that later.

Idea #4 – Free Webinars and Trial Offers

If your primary product is training or services, sometimes inviting your audience to a webinar is a great incentive to get them on your list. If you have a membership, offering a free trial also works well so that they can see what they’re getting before they make the decision to subscribe to a monthly or other continuity offer.

Idea #5 – Contests, Giveaways, and Coupons

Incentivizing your list with things like contests, giveaways, and special coupons is another excellent way to entice people to subscribe to your list.

Does this give you any ideas for changing or adding new lead magnets to your site? I know it does for me… just the act of writing all this out has my mind spinning with ideas for how to add more value for subscribers to my list. I hope it does for you too!

And now, here are today’s deals…

And that’s it for me this afternoon. I’ve been sleeping off and on since I got home from the clinic this morning, and I think I’m just going to go and lie down again for awhile. Hoping that Shaun decides to bring dinner home tonight so I don’t have to cook anything.

Have an amazing day! Create what makes your heart happy!
