What is a lead magnet.
Actually, the word says it all. A lead magnet. In other words, a piece of content that is valuable enough to attract your target audience and convince them to leave their details.

An example of a lead magnet
that might trigger your target audience. Imagine; you live in the Amsterdam area. You live in an apartment with your partner in the city center. Because you want to take the next step and expand your family, you start looking for a new house. Still in the city, but in a different neighborhood. What is relevant to you at this time?
Question: what budget do we need to buy a house in neighborhood X or Y?
Now imagine a broker who has the answer to this. In the form of a quarterly report that is automatically updated and sent out. Would you then leave your details for this?

At that point we come to the opt-in. We will tell you more about this in the next piece.
