Hey,
I’ve been emphasizing a principle to everyone lately because I genuinely believe in its effectiveness:
“If you try to catch a cat, it will run away. However, if you have what the cat wants, it will come to you.”
This concept applies just as well to prospects! Chasing leads or prospects may drive them away, but offering them something that solves their problem will draw them towards you.
So, what should you offer them? I’ve compiled a list of 40 lead magnets you can use to attract high-quality leads for your business (for both B2B and B2C):
