A lead magnet is a great way to grow your email list. It’s a piece of content that you offer for free in exchange for an email address.

Squarespace makes it easy to add a lead magnet to your site. Here’s how:

    1. Create your lead magnet. This could be a PDF guide, an eBook, a video course, or anything else that would be valuable to your Target audience.

    2. Upload your lead magnet to Squarespace.
    You can do this by going to the File Manager in your Settings panel and uploading it there. Alternatively, you can host it on another site like Dropbox or Google Drive and paste the link into Squarespace.

    3. Create a signup form.
    You can do this using Squarespace’s Form Builder. Just create a new form and choose “Signup Form” as the type. Then add the fields you want, including the file upload field where people can select your lead magnet.

    4. Add the signup form to your site. You can do this by embedding the form code in a page or blog post, or by adding it to a sidebar widget.

That’s it! Just make sure you promote your lead magnet well so people know it’s there. You can add a call-to-action button or link to the signup form on relevant pages of your site, or even create a dedicated landing page for it.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that adding a lead magnet to your Squarespace site may result in decreased site performance and/or unexpected errors. We recommend only adding a lead magnet if you are confident in your ability to troubleshoot any potential issues.
