Episode Transcript

SPEAKER_00 (00:34):
Welcome to TinyMarketing Podcast.
I'm Sarah No L Block.
This show is made for soloconsultants who want to get
booked out without burning out.
If you've ever thought, I justwant this to feel easier, you're
not alone.
Around here, we focus on simple,sustainable growth that actually
fits into your life so growthfeels doable instead of
overwhelming.

(00:56):
Hello, hello.
I'm Sarah Nawablock, and todayis a bonus episode for you.
Because yesterday we had ourconsultant's mastermind, and a
question came up that I've beenseeing a lot lately.
It's also come up inside my DMsinside of the Booked Out in Six

(01:17):
program.
And I wanted to address it, andI just so happened to have done
a workshop called Pop-Up Offers,How to Validate Your Offer and
Get Fast Cash.
And in it, I just went on alittle tangent where I talked
about the offer structure andwhere lead magnets fall into

(01:40):
that, and active lead generatorsand microoffers.
And that really answers aquestion that so many of you
have.

(02:17):
So that is the goal of a leadmagnet.
One, you're getting cold leads.
So it's super, super rare to beable to convert cold leads
immediately.
The goal of a lead magnet is toget people on your list so you
can nurture them.
So those are the people thatyou're sending emails to.
Those are the people that youwant to connect with on

(02:38):
LinkedIn.
So one, get that in your mind.
Lead magnets bring in coldleads.
They take time to nurture beforethey convert.
I've had people on my list foryears before they convert to a
client when they come in cold.
So there's that.

(02:59):
And the second thing that I wantto really emphasize about a lead
magnet is you have to meet yourprospects where they're at.
That early in the process, inthe sales process, all they're
feeling are the symptoms oftheir challenge.
They might not even know whatproblem is causing those

(03:19):
symptoms.
They just know how they feel.
So your lead magnet shouldaddress that.
It should help them understandtheir problem, and that is its
sole job.
From there, you're nurturing andyou're moving them through the
rest of the offer funnel basedoff of stages and problem

(03:40):
awareness.
So that is what this clip isabout.
If you want to watch the videobecause there's a little graphic
that goes with it, go to YouTubeor go to Spotify.
And let me know in the commentswherever you're listening to
this if you have any questionsthat came up from this.

(04:00):
Thank you.
So lead magnets.
Where do lead magnets fit in?
It brings in cold leads and ithelps prospects understand their
problem.
So a lot of people they don'tmake lead magnets like that, but
that is how you should be makinglead magnets.
It should help them understandtheir problem and it's a list

(04:20):
builder.
So these would be the coldestprospects coming in through lead
magnets.
Active lead generators bring inwarm leads.
Quick recap of what an activelead generator is.
It is usually like atime-sensitive lead generator,
like a workshop or a webinar ora challenge that needs to be

(04:46):
completed in a set amount oftime.
So it should help prospectsunderstand the solution to their
problems.
That's the purpose of an activelead generator.
A micro offer brings in hotleads.
So they are almost ready to workwith you.
And it should help them achieveone goal.
So an example of a micro offerwould be like this, like a paid

(05:07):
workshop.
A gateway offer brings in fireleads.
They are ready to buy.
And it helps them choose a pathto the best solution.
What offer would make the mostsense from your service of
offers?
Now let's just insert pop-upoffers here.
Because it's something Iinvented after making many

(05:29):
mistakes.
So a pop-up offer validates yourmain offer idea, it provides
quick cash and it does it fast.
So this should happen before youdevelop the main offer.
If you are considering adding ona new offer that would be longer

(05:50):
term, do the pop-up offer firstbecause this will save you a lot
of time and money to validate ifpeople actually want it.
And then at the bottom, you haveyour main offer.
This main offer solves theproblem your ideal customer is
going through.
So it provides the desiredtransformation they need.

(06:11):
And I recommend breaking it downinto milestones so you have an
easier selling path.
Usually, when you sell theentire transformation, it's a
little bit harder to sell all ofthat.
So instead of that, I recommendyou break it down into
milestones so they're achievingone goal.

(06:32):
You're closing that loop.
And then accomplishing that onegoal opens up a new loop.
So then you have to sell thatnext one.
So that's an easier way to sellif you're getting hit with
objections on cost or time.
Which I've I've seen a lot thisyear.
If this episode made things feela little more doable, I'd love

(06:52):
to help you take the next stepwith the booked out blueprint.
It's a practical, low pressuresession to clarify your offers,
your marketing, and whatactually moves the needle.
You can book yours through thelink in the show notes.
You don't have to figure it outalone.
