8. Step #1:
Create A Resource Guide Landing Page

12. Why This Is The Best-Performing Evergreen Landing Page We’ve Ever
Used
• It doesn’t require someone to process too much information (like a 3 minute video
or a page of copy) in order to make a decision
• Everyone wants to know the tools that you're using

18. LOG IN WITH GOOGLE
Start Your Free KISSmetrics Trial

21. Why This Is The Best-Performing Evergreen Landing Page We’ve Ever
Used
• It outperforms a free report because a lot of folks are experiencing information
overload and don’t want something else to read
• It outperforms video lead magnets because the perceived value of video lead
magnets has gone down a lot lately due to the proliferation of launches and lack
of time
• It outperforms opt-ins for free coaching sessions — greater value does not
necessarily equal higher conversion rate.
• The amount of time you spend creating your lead magnet does not equal your
conversion rate

• If you’re a real estate agent: “Resource Guide: The Top 5 Safest Credit Boosting
Home Loans Of This Year”
• If you’re a dentist: “Buyers Guide: The Top 5 Electric Toothbrushes Of This Year
(Including The One That I Use)”
• If you’re a life coach: “App Guide: The Top 4 iPhone Apps For Increasing Your
Productivity (Including The One That I Use Every Day)”
• Marketing Agency: “The Top 5 Digital Marketing Tools For Local Businesses (Hint:
The 3 Best Ones Are Free)”
• Jewelry store: “Fashion Guide: The Top 3 Accessories To Look Hot In 2015
(Including 2 Under $100)”
• Fitness experts: “The Only 3 Pieces Of Exercise Equipment You Need In Your
Home (Hint: They All Weigh Less Than 5 Pounds)”

23. Results
”LeadPages took my opt-in rate from 8.6% to 23%
IN A SINGLE DAY.”
— Brian Swichkow

24. More Results
”These are giving me 3x-4x conversions against the
ones I was using before. A couple of tweaks and
my biz will make at least 2x the money I was
making.”
— Teramis

25. Step #2:
Utilize Your Thank You Page

26. The Path To Your Thank You Page
• Among BILLIONS of webpages, someone finds you (whether via SEO, your ads, social media, links,
whatever)
• Then, a small percentage of them actually like your stuff enough to read a blog post or your About Me
page.
• THEN, they enter their email address. (The average site-wide opt-in rate is between 0.5% and 2%)
• With all of these “filters” for someone to finally get to opt in, where do we take them?

28. Instead…
Use this as an opportunity to grow your list and keep your brand consistent with
your Thank You Page.

29. But people are scared of doing webinars.
I’ll share with you an incredible way to gather market research, create a be er
connection with your audience, find topics for future content marketing, and grow
your list… without creating content for webinars in advance.

30. A Quick Bonus: Why Webinars?
• 10 of the top 12 highest converting pages on our website are webinar registration
pages
• Webinars are not dead
• They’ve made us more money than anything we’ve ever done (in terms of event
based marketing)
• The majority of successful Fortune 500 so ware companies, mediapreneurs,
coaches, SaaS companies, affiliate marketers, eCommerce store owners etc — are
all doing webinars.

31. Why Webinars?
• Quality traffic
• High conversion
• Partnerships
• Quick product creation (both paid and free products)
They provide:

32. So… how about that webinar tactic I mentioned?
A great way to rock a webinar is to do a Q&A webinar.

33. Want A Different Thank
You Page Option?

35. ”All we did was add a ‘thank you’ page a er people
register for our webinars and we’ve seen a 342%
increase in Facebook likes. Thanks @LeadPages!”
— Amanda Holmes, CEO of Chet Holmes International

36. Step #3:
Create Content Upgrades

37. We started this webinar by discussing the Resource Guide Lead
Magnet, which is a fantastic lead magnet.
But in 2015, one single lead magnet isn’t enough.
Most folks put the same lead magnet at the bo om of every blog
post…

38. … but if someone’s interested in THAT blog post, shouldn’t we be
offering a lead magnet that’s specific to it?
That’s called a Content Upgrade. It “upgrades” the value of the blog
post.

39. • Checklists (PDF)
• Downloadable PDF of blog post/transcript of podcast or video
• Worksheets
• Recipes
• Resource Guides
• ETC
Content Upgrade Ideas

40. • okdork.com/2014/09/09/linkedin-publishing-success/
• www.backlinko.com/google-ranking-factors
• www.conversioncast.com
These all use LeadBoxes (a 2-step opt-in) because they average a 30% increase in
conversion rate over the standard, one-step opt-in.
Content Upgrade Examples:

41. • …they make your page a “giving page” instead of a “taking page”
• …they force your visitors to make a decision
• …they create “behavioral inertia”
2-Step Opt-Ins work because…

42. More Results
”Used LeadBoxes for my online hypnosis classes…
signups increased 30% just using the link for the
mailing list.”
— hypnotistentertainment.com

43. More Results
”The LeadBox I’m using on my homepage (critical
to my list growth) is converting at 45%. This will
dramatically increase my revenue this year.”
— Greg Hickman, founder of Mobile Mixed
