What is a Free Guide or Lead Generation Magnet?
A free guide or lead generation magnet document is a downloadable guide that your website visitors will receive in return for providing their contact details (email address/name).
The subject of the guide is normally focused around the type of business the website is associated with and it normally contains “How to…” content.
Here is an image of the How to Guide we offer on JStreet Creative as example:
The content of the guide must represent value to the website visitor to encourage them to provide their details.
A poor irrelevant guide is unlikely to encourage people to subscribe.
Business’ typical resources such as brochures and literature don’t represent attractive lead generation magnets, as visitors will expect to have access to this information without providing any contact information at all.
Typically the opportunity to receive the free guide will appear 10-30 seconds after someone has arrived on your website, or as they are about the exit:
Opportunities to sign up for the free guide would also appear in the sidebar, to maximise the opportunity for business’ to sign up.
The “How to Guide” is also a great document to promote via social media, email or even post to existing clients to ensure your business is in their decision making process.
