Seven Simple Ways to Generate Leads and Create Results
So, you have a beautiful Lead Magnet that was intentionally created to serve your dream client… Now what?
Like most things on the interweb, you can’t just hit “post” and expect everyone to flood your inbox with leads. That would be amazingly wonderful, but that’s not typically how it works.
Your Lead Magnet is a powerful tool in your toolbox. It’s intentional in the way that it vets your potential leads into paying clients. Not to mention, it’s beautiful and completely interactive, so the second you get it in front of the right person, they’re bound to take action.
But how do you get it in front of the right person?
We recommend incorporating your Lead Magnet into your regular marketing efforts. Not exactly sure how to do that? Stick around! We’ll walk you through some ideas below.
An Important Note: When creating your Lead Magnet, you should have a specific goal being the primary action you’d like your dream client to take once they’ve worked through your Lead Magnet. For example, maybe you’d like them to schedule a Complimentary Call, join your Facebook Community, donate to a cause, or sign up for a program. Whatever it is for you, it’s important to know that goal and correlate it with your marketing strategy and efforts.
Now let’s get to those ideas!
Here are seven ways you can use your Lead Magnet to increase leads and, most importantly, get results.
-
Email Marketing
Do you have a juicy email marketing list of people waiting in the wings to get the next best thing from you? Share your Lead Magnet with them! Let them know that you have a Free Gift for them and entice them to take action. You can do this quarterly if appropriate for you. You could even create a detailed sequence that was dependent on whether or not they downloaded the Lead Magnet. Not everyone sees every email! It’s important to keep that in mind too.
-
Social Media
Whether you’re simply sharing it on social media, going live, or sharing a video about it, this is a great opportunity to share your lead magnet with your followers. We recommend sharing your lead page link in your social media bios so people can easily access it at any time! Share this multiple times in different ways. It’s a great piece of content to use monthly, bi-weekly, etc.
-
Networking
If you’re out and about networking, this is an easy gift to give to those you connect with. Create a marketing card with a QR code to your lead page (if you purchased our Irresistible Lead Magnet Package, it includes this!). Leave the marketing card with those you connect with so they can easily access your lead magnet. It’s a simple yet genius way to share this. Wahlah! Another lead coming your way!
-
Blog Posts
Write up a blog post related to your lead magnet. Whether it goes into depth or gives a little glimpse into one key topic included in it, the primary call to action will be to download your lead magnet. Share this blog post with your email list and/or your social media. This is another way to share your lead magnet by utilizing a different form of content. Maybe your dream client is a reader and loves sifting through valuable blogs.
-
Business Partnerships
Does your business pair well with someone else’s? Maybe you have aligned businesses, but you specialize in something different than them. Connect with them! You most likely already have, so why not have them share your lead magnet? You can determine how you’d like to do it (social media, email marketing, in person, etc.), you could even provide them the copy and have them simply share it with their audience. BOOM! A whole new slew of leads. You’ll notice some of these strategies start to intermingle, and that’s the beauty of it!
-
Podcasts + Speaking Events
Do you speak regularly at events? Do you get invited to be a guest on podcasts? Share your expertise, do your thing, then invite listeners to snag your free gift. So often opportunities are lost at these types of events. If it’s an in-person event, you could even leave your Marketing Card for everyone who attends. BOOM!
-
Workshops
By now you know you have a beautiful marketing piece that you can use to generate leads into your business. You can also use it as a workshop. Grab a small group of interested leads and work through the lead magnet together in workshop form. Once you work through the content, intentionally invite them to work with you further. This allows a more personal experience and has proven to be successful! Charge a low-ticket price for the workshop, provide them the value, and invite them for more.
These are just a few ideas to use and implement your lead magnet to get the most value out of it. This truly is a quality marketing piece that is ESSENTIAL to your marketing toolbox.
You can use it in every way that serves you, but the most important thing is to use it.
If you don’t tell them, they won’t know.
Work this into your marketing strategy and start to see the leads your lead magnet will generate for you. This is one powerful piece, and we’re so excited to see the success it brings to you and your business!
