Every new lead that comes into your work email does not mean that it is your client. To build long-term relationships with potential customers, you need to be able to attract those customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s important for every company to have a lead magnet \u2013 a way to attract your target audience that is most likely to use your services.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5393 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Snymok-ekrana-2022-03-29-v-13.56.46.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"2168\" height=\"1078\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Snymok-ekrana-2022-03-29-v-13.56.46.png 1920w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Snymok-ekrana-2022-03-29-v-13.56.46-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Snymok-ekrana-2022-03-29-v-13.56.46-768x382.png 768w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Snymok-ekrana-2022-03-29-v-13.56.46-1024x509.png 1024w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Snymok-ekrana-2022-03-29-v-13.56.46-600x298.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2168px) 100vw, 2168px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How does Lead Magnet work?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lead magnet is something your company can offer a customer in exchange for their contact information. It can be a free lecture, a webinar, a checklist, a book, or a discount on a product. Even if the customer isn&#8217;t completely interested in your services, they can fill out a small field of information, provide their contact information, and get what they want. After that, consider that you&#8217;ve got your potential customer&#8217;s information. Next, you can develop a relationship with him or her by fueling interest in your product or services with content or other content that interests him or her.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each new connection with your potential customer pushes them to work with you more and more, as well as developing your brand awareness. Marketers in many companies assert that the use of such lead magnets increases the possibility of closing a new deal and working with a new customer by 50%. The reason for this is simple \u2013 when a customer makes it clear that they are interested, this information can be taken over by the sales department and used to further communication with that customer. Thus, the chance of getting a new profitable deal doubles. This is the main reason why you should add a lead magnet to your strategy for attracting new customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What does a good Lead Magnet consist of?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simply giving your customers an opportunity to get something for free is unlikely to guarantee you a loyal customer. For a lead magnet to really interest a potential customer, it has to be of high quality and have certain characteristics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So before you launch a lead magnet, answer yourself the question whether it meets the following characteristics:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Useful<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For a lead magnet to work, it must be useful to the customer. If a potential customer sees value in what you offer, it will provoke them to click on the &#8220;Get\/Buy&#8221; button and fuel their interest in your company.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Credible<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The lead magnet you offer your customers should only be with verified information. Since this material should either enhance your company&#8217;s credibility or validate it. For example, as a company with great information resources and contacts, you can provide a checklist with tips on the work of leaders in your field.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Easy to distribute<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If the lead magnet is perfect, the customer may want to share it with friends or colleagues. To do this, you can:<br \/>\n<\/span>&#8211; Add a link to your social media magnet, so you can easily retweet it just by clicking a button;<br \/>\n&#8211; Add notes from experts you interviewed or information for the magnet;<br \/>\n&#8211; Ask your employees to add a lead magnet release to their social media accounts;<br \/>\n&#8211; Add a button to share information on the lead magnet&#8217;s home page. This item is especially important because sharing information on social media sites like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook can bring more recognition to your brand.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Strategic<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Do you have a plan for what to do after the customer does give you their contact information? Your team should have a clear plan for what to do after you receive a potential customer&#8217;s email. Will you do the same with clients who have left you their email and clients who choose not to? Create some system by which you can categorize your customers and give them the right attention.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10 examples of useful Lead Magnets\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have a collective brainstorming session to determine which type of lead magnet can do you the most good.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Review or infographic.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">E-books or large documents are great, but not all companies have the capacity to create them. If you have limitations when it comes to content, then consider an infographic or review. Put all the key points together into a little checklist or compilation of analytics with facts and attach it to a feedback button on your site. But before you start working on your short review, use Google Analytics to determine which content on your site users like best. Then use free apps or a designer to help you shape the information you get from the content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Free Consultation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another simple lead magnet option is a free consultation or video lesson. This kind of magnet is especially useful for online schools or sites with courses, as well as for companies that offer consulting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can record a video lesson and send it to all clients who have entered their details on the site or have already enrolled in your courses. Or you can personally coordinate with the client and find out what time for the consultation is appropriate for him, if you decide to consult each user personally. Such a magnet doesn&#8217;t only work in the IT industry, because in many gyms or schools the first session with a trainer\/teacher is free.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Surveys and tests<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even better when the lead magnet is not only useful, but also interactive. An example of such magnets could be a survey or a test. To start taking the test, the client has to enter their information and email or enter it at the end to get the results of the test.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The test itself should be on the topic of the services you offer. For example, when enrolling in an online school, the platform offers to find out your level of language proficiency. Once the client passes the test, based on the results, you can offer them an appropriate package of services or courses. In this way, you work with the client to find blockers first, and then offer solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Trial version\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Providing work platforms or software to your customers? Then think about using the trial version as a lead magnet as well. For the duration of the trial, you will be able to be in touch with the customer and interact directly with them. You will also get all the contacts you need to communicate with them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the trial issue is critical for you, then give your customers a discount on your services.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Private network<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have access to private social media groups, you can also use this as a lead magnet for your clients. For example, if you&#8217;re a marketing agency, you can add your clients to a chat with experts where they can get expert opinions firsthand. You can create the group itself in Slack, for example, and integrate it into Zendesk. That way you can easily interact with clients right in the group.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Courses<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Providing your customers with training in the form of courses? Create a free lesson, master class or lecture that users can watch at any time. Make them available or send them directly to your customers in the mail.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For large organizations, it&#8217;s no problem to provide a full free course that&#8217;s divided into blocks. But if you have limited capacity, you can provide just one or two lessons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Templates<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A worksheet with ready formulas for accounting, a template for a job, a sample resume along with a structure &#8211; everything that might be relevant in your field of work and everything that might be useful to your clients. To receive the template or unlock other templates, the user will be required to leave their contact information.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8. Tools<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another good option for attracting new clients is a free tool that can make your clients&#8217; jobs easier. For example, a tool for calculating indicators, or for detecting errors in the text. The choice of tool may depend on what services you provide.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9. Guide<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You could also call it a checklist or instruction manual. It can be a guide to a specific processor instruction for working with a platform or tool. Perhaps it can be an instruction manual with a detailed explanation of the topic your audience is most interested in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10. Product or service research\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We&#8217;re sure you know all the benefits of your product or service. But do your customers know about them?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can tell them about them simply by providing a presentation or detailed research. Send it out after customers register on your website or after they click the feedback button on the website.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t send your customers all of your research, or documents with explanations they won&#8217;t understand. Show your customer your product through your specialist&#8217;s eyes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In our recent guide about <a href=\"https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/en\/blog\/how-to-guide-gmail\/\">Gmail hacks<\/a>, we explored some clever tricks to make your email management a breeze.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turn new customers into loyal ones<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By creating a quality lead magnet, you work to pull every new customer into the sales funnel.
