How to choose

An audit-style freebie naturally leads to "want me to look at yours?" Make the last page a simple invitation to book a review call.

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

What lead magnet works best for B2B consultants?

Checklists and templates that a client team can use internally tend to work, because they get shared inside the company.

Should I share my full framework for free?

Sharing the framework usually builds trust. Clients hire you to apply it to their situation, not to learn it exists.

How long should a lead magnet for marketing consultants be?

Short enough to use in one sitting: a one-page checklist or worksheet, or a short guide of roughly 5–15 pages.
