How to choose
Life coaching is broad, so the most useful freebies are narrow. A scorecard works well because the reader leaves with a personal result, not just general advice, and the result gives you a natural reason to follow up by email.
Whichever idea you pick, keep it to one problem, make it short enough to finish in one sitting, and end with a clear next step toward your paid offer. See also how long a lead magnet should be and what an opt-in page needs.
Common follow-up questions
Should a life coach lead magnet be about my method or about the client?
About the client's problem. You can introduce your method inside it, but the title and first page should name the situation the reader is in.
Is a quiz better than a PDF for life coaches?
A quiz can feel more personal, but it needs a quiz tool and result pages. A printable scorecard PDF gives a similar "here is where I stand" moment with much less setup.
How long should a lead magnet for life coaches be?
Short enough to use in one sitting: a one-page checklist or worksheet, or a short guide of roughly 5–15 pages.
