How much?


A couple of days back I caught some criticism for saying that free lead magnets just aren't good enough.

It was the usual spiel from me.

People who pay once will pay again. Low ticket offers build a more engaged list. Yada yada yada.

Well, someone took umbrage with and decided to message me about how wrong I was.

Which is cool. You have your opinions, I have mine. I'm not so precious that I can't hear and consider another viewpoint.

It doesn't bother me because I've seen how low-ticket offers build more engaged lists that are primed for buying higher-ticket, profit-driving offers.

And I'm not the only one who's seen it.

The day after I received Mr "Give it all away for free"s email, I received a message from someone in the GM Community.

They'd previously mentioned they get a much better response rate from people who had bought their $1 offer. So I asked, how much better...

They went away to check the stats, and then came back to me with this...

The % of people who bought their signature offer was 12X higher for people who had first bought a $1 product.

Once again, this is all proven with actual data.

People you attract with free stuff, want to take more free stuff.

People you attract with a low-cost offer will give you something back for your efforts.

So, if you're using free lead magnets and struggling to sell products to your list, consider switching those lead magnets to low-cost paid offers.

Even a single dollar can make the difference for you down the line.

And if you want help setting something like this up, check out the $1 Product Challenge here.

I'm a firm believer that things can always be done a little better. Even when your marketing strategy is working, there's probably a few tweaks you could make to help squeeze a little extra juice out of it. And that's been my focus for the last week. I've been tweaking the sales material, funnel, and approach for the $1 Product Challenge. Now I could leave all of those changes and the reasons behind them hidden away. Secreted behind the paywall for only the most serious "funnel hackers" who...

If the growth strategy for your business is to simply "get new leads", I want you to think about this. Cause there's likely an easy 5+ figures in your biz you're overlooking. This weekend, I'm heading to a nice little local restaurant with the Mrs for a Valentine's Day dinner. The restaurant's in a really weird place. It's on a side street that gets little foot traffic. The side of the road it's on has barely any sidewalk (it's about 1-foot across). And the entrance is just a door in an...

Hey! So later today I'm gonna be jumping on a Webinar to explain the full system we've been using to... Attract high intent customers at cost/minor profit Pre sell them on your HTO Automate 90ish% of the system You can register for that here if you haven't yet. But I wanted to take a second to talk about something I see a lot of people get wrong. A HUGE part of this system is to launch something small and unthreatening to identify the "nuyers". Generally speaking, people who buy once, will...
