Free webinars are often the front of the sales funnel. This helps in branding yourself as an authority.

When I think about what we give away for free to entice people to opt in, I think about the information, and tools as welcome cards. With the information I give I want to say, "Hi, My name is Rafael, this is what I have to offer." I like to combine that with my goals and my lifestyle so that I can help others and in the spirit of reciprocity, be helped at the same time. I guess what I am saying is that the free line goes deep into what your business is about on the internet. Best regards, Rafael Hi Rebecca,

Those free offers are a strategy many offline businesses use as well...think free samples. With blogs, as you pointed out so well, information of value is given freely and the higher the value, the more repeat visits, the more subscribers, etc. That was a great example of moving the free line! Thanks so much for sharing your information...... Sincerely, Robin Rebecca,

Harv Eker....inside the cover, you got 2 FREE tickets to a 3 day looooooong intensive workshop. For anyone who survived and experienced that were certainly well on their way down his funnel.

When teaching classes I get asked all the time “what would be a great offer?” All of your ideas and points are wonderful, thanks for sharing.

I think one other simple way to determine if a offer will produce any results is thinking if I went to a site with an offer like this would I take advantage of it? Obviously if the answer is “no” then the offer is probably not very good.

Awesome post! Have a wonderful day!
