You get:
- lead magnet email with no instructions (they don’t know how to use it)
- no follow-up to reinforce value
- subscribers who download and never engage again
- missed opportunity to build relationship
- low conversion to paid customers
But lead magnet delivery is not just a link.
It is the start of your relationship.
- Email 1: Delivery + quick win (immediate value)
- Email 2: How to use it effectively (onboarding)
- Email 3: Next steps (what to do after using it)
Without onboarding, your lead magnet is just a file.
