Step 2: Creating the lead magnet

This is exactly when lead magnets soon come into play. 🎭 Once a prospect reads one of our articles, they become a lead. cold. 🥶

Nevertheless, if you’ve been following along, our goal is for it to now become warm. 🥵

So we offered him a lead magnet. There are many different types, the main ones being :

• ✅ The checklist.
• 📧 The contact form.
• 📔 The e-book.
• 📊 Computer graphics.
• 📖 The white paper.
• 🎥 The webinar.

This lead magnet must comply with all the rules, such as thinking for the user, redirecting to another article, thinking about the user’s current search intention, and so on.

Which lead magnet do you think we used? 🤔

The e-book! That’s right, we created it using the Canva. Here’s a sneak preview 😉.

Step 3: Where to promote the Waalaxy lead magnet?

There are several ways to sell your lead magnet. For our part, we tested 4 different ways, here they are :

• A full-page pop-up that appears on the screen.
• A contact form at the end of the article.
• A link integrated directly into the header.
• A banner in an article that says “click to open pop-up and download”.
• A contact form on the home page.

Colas returns. 👇🏼

So, taking into account results we stuck to the full-page pop-up that appears on the screen. 🌞

Minute hack

As we love to spoil you, we are giving you a few little tips which we’ll be rolling out on the blog in the near future. ⬇️

Don’t hesitate to put the pop-up on the whole page, not just part of it, because by default it’s there, the user will close the content. Here, it will instinctively read thinking it’s a bug. 👀

In addition, don’t hesitate to replace the cross to close the pop-up with a more impactful message such as :

• 1️⃣ I don’t want the e-book.
• 2️⃣ I’m not interested.
• 3️⃣ No, I don’t want any.

Finally, to avoid bogging down your user with a pop-up that opens as soon as you open the article, you can set up a system that displays it only once. every two weeks. 📆

Step 4: Collect visitor contact details

It’s all well and good to create a lead magnet, but you’ve got to be able to send it somewhere. 🔎

That’s why you need to put a little contact form next to your e-book with a clear, strong and attractive message that makes your user want to download it. Here’s an example. 👇🏼

Step 5: Sending the lead magnet

Now that your pop-up is complete and your user has entered his or her contact details the magic can finally happen. 🪄

How do we make magic? 🤹🏼‍♂️

We use Mailchimp and have integrated a API. Okay, a few clarifications are in order:

• The API sends the user’s contact details directly to Mailchimp.
• They arrive with a tag according to their type of persona (freelancer, recruiter, company director, etc.).
• A mail sequence is created according to its typology.
• An initial e-mail is sent according to the lead magnet, with a clear, concise tone, including the e-book and a multi-step course related to the lead magnet.

Here’s a sneak preview of our API on Mailchimp 👀.

The “little hack” minute is back. ⏱️ Let’s hear from our very own Colas International.

Step 6: Lead nurturing

One of the most important steps in this stage is the lead nurturing.

What does this mean? 😎

Simply put, you’re going to give your prospect all kinds of information, training him on what interests him most, so that he has all the weapons 🪓 to succeed in what he wants to do, such as the prospecting.

We want him to know how to prospect and, above all, to use Waalaxy 👀.

In the end, he’s happy, and so are we! 🥳

How do I do it? 🤨

Chief Colas, the honor is all yours 🫡.

Then ask yourself the following questions:

What questions does your audience ask most? How do you compose your e-mails?

Then you’ll prioritize them according to which are the most important. important and create an e-mail that answers each of these questions.

💡 One mail = one question.

Shall we tell you how we did it at home? Come on, that’s what you’re here for after all 😇.

Example with Waalaxy

Okay, for this example, we’ll take “create a quality LinkedIn profile to convert”.

We have made a link to one of our articles on “how to make a LinkedIn profile quality”.

We want to turn and turn around the Waalaxy universe, with the sole ultimate goal that in the end, the prospect will be so overwhelmed by our product that he’ll want to download Waalaxy. 🛸

Then we added a few little elements to spice up our emails: 👇🏼

• 1️⃣ Mails are signed “Margaux” (a false identity we created), so that it’s a person in the box who’s writing and not the company.

• 2️⃣ The e-mail address, the profile is personalized under Margaux’s branding.

• 3️⃣ We ask the customer to send us an e-mail to let us know what they thought (and we often get feedback, here’s an example 🫣).

• 4️⃣ We sign the e-mail with Margaux’s photo (we made it up).

• 5️⃣ Finally, in the subject line, we put [1/6] and so on, because it makes you want to read the rest of the adventures. A bit like a story where if you want to know the beginning and the end, well, you need all the chapters. 🤩

Step 7: Analyze your data

To analyze our data, we built a dashboard, using Bubble in no code.

All in all? Link with Mailchimp and Zapier.

This is deconstructed in four parts:

• 🔵 S ales.
• 🔵 The e-book download over the last 28 days, with the option of viewing it on a weekly basis.
• 🔵 Audience growth.
• 🔵 Email data, filtered by language.

Our 6 KPIs to know

• 🔳 Click-through rate.
• 🔳 Sales.
• 🔳 Churn rate.
• 🔳 The number of payments this month.
• 🔳 Emailing open rate.

Frequently asked questions

Don’t be too hasty, we still have a few resources for you. send. 🫶🏼

Bonus: another little hack

With all these steps, we strongly recommend that you automate as many things as possible.

No one wants to have to write down every prospect’s contact details by hand on an Excel file every day…

That’s why, when someone enters their information in the form, we make sure that their information is automatically sent to the various Mailchimp APIs.

Last but not least, here are 3 more little tricks, as a gift: 🎁

• Send a promotional code in your first e-mail and, a few days later, send one again, mentioning “your promotional code only lasts 24 hours, so take advantage of it before it expires”.
• Turn your prospect into a newsletter reader(here’s what we say) ➡️ “We’re done with the prospecting training, but if you’d like to continue receiving information, don’t hesitate to subscribe to our Supernova newsletter“. ☄️
• As soon as someone replies to an e-mail sent by Margaux, it is forwarded directly to Intercom (the tool used by our support team to process customer requests).

And now you know all about the Waalaxy lead magnet. See you soon for new adventures. 👋🏼
