How to Create a Collect Emails / Applications Product

What is a Collect Emails / Applications Product?

A Collect Emails & Applications product — also known as a Freebie or Lead Magnet — allows you to collect information from your audience, such as an email address or phone number, in exchange for a free offer. This product type is not intended for direct sale, so you won’t be able to add a price.

The item you offer must be accessible via a downloadable file or a direct link to an online page. Common examples include templates, guides, or short e-books — simple, valuable resources your audience can access instantly 🎉
