I think they’re having a resurgence right now.” — Chenell Basilio It took 60 episodes. But we finally dedicated a full episode to lead magnets — what they are, what’s actually working right now, and what’s quietly a waste of time. In this episode, we break down the three lead magnet formats we see winning, why “quick win” matters more than length, and how tactics like comment-to-get and pop-up newsletters can create real growth flywheels. We also talk about when lead magnets don’t make sense (yes, that’s a thing) and the simple promotion step most creators skip that could double the impact of what they’ve already built.
