- Should your lead magnet be a quiz or a course? (We unpack why this doesn’t matter, and what to focus on instead.)
- Practical advice you can use when you don’t know what lead magnet you should have.
- If so-and-so’s free course has a dozen emails, does that mean yours should too? (We also unpack why this doesn’t matter, and what to focus on instead.)
- How to decide when you should outsource your email marketing.
- Replying to emails at 10pm? No problem! Chrissy and I respect different neruotypes in our businesses.
- Step-by-step: How to build your lead magnet if you want one, but don’t want to get overwhelmed or stuck.
- Why you shouldn’t be afraid of failure.
- Why it's good to study other people's lead magnets... but bad to get caught up in comparison.
- How owning your “past failings” or “revisions” can be your lead’s magnet superpower.
