📩 The Lead Magnet Rule YOU’re Probably Ignoring
|
Last year, I made a 50-page free guide. I thought it was amazing. Guess what? Almost no one downloaded it. Then I made a 1-page checklist that solved one specific problem, a simple social media basics checklist. That simple thing got more downloads in one week than the big guide didn’t get in months. That’s when I learned, a good lead magnet, yes I’m talking about the free resource offered in exchange for users’ email address, doesn’t have to be big, it just has to be useful right now. #1: Keep it simple Pick one problem your audience has and solve it fast. If you want a quick start, check my blog post here where I break down 9 ideas you can copy. You might find the one that gets your list growing. #2: Make it instantly usable Templates, checklists, or swipe files work because people can use them without extra steps. #3: Focus on one result Don’t try to cover everything. Promise one outcome and deliver it clearly. #4: Start small, then expand Test with a simple freebie first. If people love it, add more later. #5: Show, don’t just tell Add examples so people can see how to use what you give them. When your lead magnet feels like a quick win, people are happy to give you their email. And once they trust you, they’ll stick around for what’s next. You don’t need to overcomplicate this, just solve a real problem, keep it short, and make it easy to use. Stay curious, Minosh. ​ |

Newsletters aren’t just for sharing updates anymore. According to HubSpot, marketing experts say that in 2025, more newsletters...
Not long ago, someone on Pinterest commented, “do you think we can even grow a business without social media in 2025”. Just like that, my next blog post almost wrote itself. It reminded me that, sometimes your best content comes straight from your own audience. When you invite others to share their wins, struggles, or honest questions, things get way easier (and a lot more real). A recent research also found that 69% of people trust recommendations from creators, just like they trust advice...
Ever feel like Google is reading your mind these days? You search for something, and suddenly there’s a quick AI answer box, not a list of links. Most of the time, the answer you’re looking for nicely appears there, but not every time, yes, that’s the truth. But there is something happening, and you already know it: AI tools are changing the way people find info online. Well, that’s the users’ side, but when it comes to the website owners, creators, and businesses that benefit from Google?...
