    I think the best one to give as gift would be a course. Maybe not in a pdf style but something different, so that they wouldn't get bored of reading it. I'm actually making my blogging course right now. It'll be like 12 week course type of deal.

  • The best report is something original and unique and which fits the overall business model that you're promoting elsewhere on the same site. Make sure that you've branded yourself well in the report.

    I know of a few people now who are having success with using a video as the opt in bait rather than a report, so you could also test creating a video. Use the content of the report as the basis for the video. It doesn't need to be downloadable.

      A course with videos would be much better! Thanks for your suggestion...

    i suggest video.. has highest response rate, perceived value and actual value. Remember when you push the free line you don't want to give them more then they can consume because then they wont buy or take action this is why the mini course thing is kind of gone. give them a really kick ass PDF/video with a golden nugget they can quickly and easily consume.

    just my opinion and what i have done and i modeled after other's before me.

    Cheers,

    Luis

      If you want to get subscribers to your list forget about that FREE stuff. They want something of value or perceived value to use right now.

      On your squeeze page give then instant access to a video. But that is only half the battle. Some people will give you their personal information just to watch the video. However, the process goes further than just watching the video.

      Studies have proven that when you read you only remember a small amount of the information that you have read(about 10%)

      With a video they can retain about 50% of the information. (results my vary)

      Know this. Its important to make your visitors aware that this is one of the rules of your business. You will not allow them to view your information without sharing personal information about yourself so that you can contact them in the future.

      That is why they call it a squeeze page. Because I'm going to squeeze you for the information.

    Maybe it is just me but I think the hottest freebie you can give out is an ebook related to blogging. yeah, an e-course sounds nice but there are people who wants to take the info in one go. However, the decision is up to you.

    I give away a content packed video... Videos are valued pretty highly by most people.

    But not only that, but make sure the content is TRUE VALUE. Make that switch go off in their head so that you become the instant authority and trusted friend. Give them cool, free stuff at will that will help them RIGHT AWAY. People dont want stuff that will "work later"

    Give them something they can put into action NOW

      a how to step by step video would be a valuable freebie. something that majority wants to learn like 5 simple steps on an SEO topic for a blog. make it simple n easy to apply.

      or probably a video accompanied by a worksheet with checklists that way it is more goal oriented.

      cheers!
