Simple Ideas for a Lead Magnet

Using a Lead Magnet to Generate Leads for Your Business

Lead magnets are the key to generating leads for your business. You can turn your leads into customers by offering your visitors quality content in exchange for their contact information.

For me, the easiest way to create a lead magnet is to write a small ebook (like this one you are reading right now!). A small ebook can be as easy as writing three to

five and up to ten pages of content, which you can quickly turn into an ebook.

Now that you know your lead magnet and have seen the benefits and results you can get with it, you are ready to create a lead magnet. 

In my experience, the fastest and easiest way to create an ebook is to write the content of your ebook in Google docs. Next, you’ll want a Canva account - sign up for free! As a creator, I’d recommend a paid account because a Canva account is one of the best productivity tools you can use as an entrepreneur.

Design your ebook in Canva using their templates, which you can modify or start from scratch! Then, once you have your ebook finished, download it as a pdf. It’s that simple!

You can also create a mini-online course showing your potential customers how to DIY a product or service that you provide. Of course, people often won’t even finish the course, but now you can market to them via your email list! 

Using an Online Course for Your Lead Magnet Offer

Another way you can create a lead magnet is by making a simple and short online course that your guest could finish in one to three hours. Using a platform such as Kajabi or Teachable makes it easy to make an online class. In addition, you can teach a class by dropping videos and other content through Convertkit - an online email marketing platform that I (and many other creators) use. But you don’t have to be a creator to use Convertkit! I love it because it’s easy to use and economical. You can create products and services (such as an online course in which you give them content they can download in emails) to sell to your clients right inside the email marketing platform!

Once you know your lead magnet topic, create a sales page outlining how you can answer that question. Explain the types of answers you can give and how you can help them. This may encourage them to sign up for your list. The more people sign up to your list, the higher your conversion rate. Therefore, a well-visited website with a high conversion rate is a great way to attract leads.
