You probably know you “should” be building your email list… especially in 2020, when socials are getting cray cray…

You might have even tried to put out a “newsletter” and encourage people sign up for it. However, here’s a hard hitting truth – people don’t want another newsletter (besides your mom).

Enter in, lead magnets.

A lead magnet, also known as an opt-in or freebie, is one of the best ways to add people to your email list.

For coaches and service providers, your lead magnet is typically a piece of valuable content that you give away to a prospect in exchange for their email address.

For that to happen, you have to think about what is important to your niche audience + a catchy title to make them want to download it.

Here are 10 specific examples you could use as a health coach;

• eBook
• Checklist or cheat sheet
• Guide
• Starter Kit
• Quiz
• Invitation to a webinar or event
• Recipes or a meal plan
• Healthy food list
• Videos
• Discount for products or services

What you offer is important, but so is how you describe what you’re offering.

Here are some tips to consider when naming your lead magnet

• Quantify it with a number, like 5 Things I Wish I Knew Before Ditching Sugar or Steal My 20-Minute Fat Burning Routine
• Reveal something valuable to your audience, like How to Sneak More Veggies into Your Kids’ Lunchbox or How to Survive Vacation Without Derailing Your Diet.
• Or it could be a teaser, with a title like Get a Sneak Peek of My First 2 Modules
