You’ve got a great idea for a new piece of content. It’s not quite big enough to charge for it - but should it be a lead magnet? In this episode, I review the two key questions you need to ask yourself before you create (another) lead magnet - or if you need a lead magnet at all! 

Be sure to join in the conversation with the question of the week: Of the last 5 freebies or lead magnets that you signed up for, how many of them did you actually use?

In this episode, I breaks down the marketing tactic of using fear and blame to drive action. Fear-based marketing has been around since the days of snake oil - and likely even before that. Fear-based marketing leverages Maslow’s hierarchy of needs,. Instead of using positive statements to make customers feel like they’re going to fill a need with their purchase, the fear statements motivate by making the customers feel like they’re missing something.
