Now that you have chosen your technology and you have all the things in place you need to get started building your email list, it's time to design and create a compelling lead magnet that will attract subscribers.

• Choose the Buyer's Persona or Avatar You Want to Attract
• Know the Problem You Want to Solve for Them
• Name Your Freebie Using a Compelling Title
• Choose the Form the Lead Magnet Will Appear
• Create a Landing Page for Your Freebie
• Develop a Download Page for Your Lead Magnet
• Create the Lead Magnet or Hire Someone to Create It

Write a blog post about it and share it with everyone so that you'll get more people on your list. Whatever you do, don't keep it a secret.
