Hi guys, it’s Rhonda and in this video we are going to talk about creating our lead magnet or our freebie funnel, our opt-in form, whatever you want to call it, to entice people to sign up for our mailing list. Okay? You know, I preach how important it is to have a list because it is basically the only thing you truly truly own when it comes to your business. Um, if you’re selling on platforms like Etsy and you’re depending on maybe social media for your traffic and things like that, you know, Etsy can shut you down tomorrow. The algorithms can change and you know, then your posts on social media aren’t getting out like they used to. But if you are building a list, if you are building a mailing list, these are your people. The this is your audience. It’s yours 100%. You can export it and save it and it doesn’t matter what mailing list platform you’re using, what newsletter system you’re using, that list belongs to you no matter what. Okay? So, I figured today we would do a video showing you how to create uh your landing page. And uh I’m going to talk about what I’ve created for my freebie bundle. What you create is going to be completely different. It’s going to be based on the products you sell in your shop. I’m just using uh what I make as an example. Okay? You take what I give you and use it for um products that you think your customers would be interested in. Something that would entice them to give you their name and email in exchange for these free files or these free products. Okay. So, I’m starting out and I’m here inside of KD. And what I have done because I sell SVG files for laser engraving and cutting is I’ve created a bundle of five uh wildlife themed SVG designs. Okay. Now, I’ve already created them here. I’m not going to uh go through all that because like I said, what you create for your uh list for your customers is going to be completely different than what I’ve created for mine. Just know this part is 100% personal. You create what you think your customers are going to like. If you don’t know what to create, you can always go to Claude or Chat GPT and ask what you should create. you know, tell them what tell the uh LLM what it is you make, who your customers are, and ask it for ideas for freebies. So, I sell SVG cut files for laser engraving artists and crafters. I’m building a lead funnel. What are some ideas for freebies that I can offer in exchange for signing up for my list? Okay? And just ask it that. Tell it what you sell and ask. And I don’t know what in the tarnation is wrong with Claude tonight. It is just not working properly. So, I am going to use chat GPT this evening and we’ll go there. Okay. Let’s ask chatbt. I sell digital files for laser engraving crafters. Give me some ideas for freebies that I can give them in exchange for signing up for my mailing list. Okay, so that’s all I did. told it what I sell and asked Chad GPT for some ideas. So, right here it’s giving me mini laser cut file bundle. Perfect. That’s what I’m doing. I am doing five files, but it’s giving me other ideas, too. Laser file sizing guide, um, a cheat sheet with common product sizes for earrings, signs, tags, pricing calculator sheet, craft fair prep checklist, things like that. So, there’s a lot of different options here, but I am going with the first one, the mini laser cut file bundle. All right. And that’s what I’ve did. I’ve created five of these. So, all I’m going to do is select all five of these and I’m going to come over here to the right and I’m going to download. I’m going to turn these select SVG. Going to say remove background and optimize quality. Now, I don’t have to worry about DPI or size because these are SVGs. They’re scalable vector graphics, which means I can upsize them, downsize them, do whatever, and they’re not going to lose quality. So, I’m just going to export those. If you are creating PGs, you are going to want to make sure they are 300 dpi and you know the drill, right? So, I’m just going to save these in here. And I’m just going to call these wildlife bundle. And that’s that. Now, my next step [cough] [clears throat] is to take these images and make mockups so I can make an image that will go on my leadfunnel homepage. All right. And to do that, I’m going to use this platform called Render Studio. And I’m just going to sign in here quick. And let me get in here. All righty. And I am going to use the mockup generator in here. And I can upload up to 10 files at once. So I’m just going to come in here and I’m going to find my freebies. Okay. And I’m going to drag one. Whoops. Going to drag. Can I drop it in there? Nope. Okay. I have to grab them this way. And that’s okay. come in here and I’m going to grab three, four, five. Okay, I’m going to grab all five of these images and I am going to go in here to my templates and I’m going to select this wood coaster and I’m just going to click generate five mockups. And just that quickly, it generated all five of these. And I’m going to download them. One, two, three, four, five. Okay, so I wanted them all like this on this coaster. And now I’m going to come back to KD. And this may seem odd to you, but I am going to upload all five of those images again. Okay,
let’s close that out. And I want to put all of these on one art board. And I could have done this before. I just forgot and I ended up deleting them. But I’m just going to upload all of these. Put them on the same artboard here. Make it a little bigger. Maybe doesn’t really matter what the size is. Okay. Now, here in KD, I’m going to select this artboard and I’m going to use a smart board here. And I’m going to tell it AI image board. And now what I want to do is I’m going to use Nano Banana 2. And I’m going to say create a life style mockup image of these SVG files. Put them on wooden coasters sitting on a coffee table in a cozy living room. Okay. I just want a mockup that shows all five of these images together. So, we’re going to give this a second to generate mockup. And that looks pretty cool. It is. Let me zoom in here for you. You see it took all those images, put it on like wooden coasters, and it’s sitting on a coffee table, which is exactly what I wanted. Okay. So, I am just going to delete that cuz I didn’t mean to duplicate it. I wanted to flatten it and turn it into an image by itself. So, let me zoom out here. And now I’m going to delete all of those plain images. I’m going to pop this right here on my artboard. And I’m going to zoom in. And now, you remember those little those five individual mockups I did. Now, I am going to upload those right in here. And I am going to line them up across the top of this. So, uh, when I put this on my landing page, people are going to be able to see all of these individually, as well as this big mockup of the designs. Okay. So, I’m just moving these up here to the top, putting them in a row, just like that. Now, I’m going to select all of them. I don’t want the background. I just want these five small images. What did I do? holding shift while selecting. Then I can resize all of them. Just like that. Okay. So now we have each individual one across the top. Plus we have that nice mockup of them on a coffee table. Okay. So this is a great image for my landing page. So now that I have this done, I’m going to download this. And this time I’m going to make it a JPEG. And I don’t want to remove the background. I’m just going to optimize the quality and I’m going to export this and I’m going to save this right here. And I’m going to call this my mockup image. All right. So now we have our files created. And what I’m going to do with those really quick is I’m going to come over here and my freebie and my wildlife bundle is right here. I am going to actually I don’t even have to do anything to this because my five images are right in here. I can view them right here. We have all five. So, I can leave them just the way they are or I could go in here and rename them, which is what I should do. So, we’re going to extract to wildlife bundle. I’m going to come in here and I should have named these while I was in KD, but I forgot. So, we’re just going to do it now. And we’re going to name it bison, owl, moose, mountain, lion, and wolf. And these are all SVGs. So, now that I have them renamed, I am going to zip them up once again. Turn this back into a zip file. And we’re going to name this Wildlife Bundle freebie. Okay, so now I have my files all ready to go. I have my mockups, my image ready to go for my landing page. So now it’s time to head over to NED and build our landing page. Okay, so I am logged into my NED account and the first thing I want to do is go to my student dashboard and come in here to the ENT funnel templates and I’m going to grab one of these. Okay. And you can pick whichever one you want. You can create your own. It’s completely up to you. I am just going to grab a ready-made one. And I’m going to use this one. I think the tan, the sand color is perfect for um the wildlife uh designs I’m doing. So, all I’m going to do is click install now. And that’s going to add this to my funnel list. Okay. And I’m going to refresh it quick. And you see it’s active and ready to use. The first thing I’m going to do is over here on the right I’m going to click on these three buttons. Select settings. And I’m going to rename this to my wildlife freebie bundle. All right. And then I’m going to choose my custom domain that I’ve already added to AntE. And you should have done that by now, too. And then I’m just going to save this. I don’t have to worry about currency or payments because this is a freebie funnel. We’re not asking them to buy anything. We’re asking them to give us their name and email address in exchange for some free files. So, I’m just going to hit save. Now, what I’m going to do is click on the name of my funnel. And in here, we can once again give the page a name. So, I’m going to do wildlife freebief funnel. And down here would be your URL path. So, I’m going to make this wildlife freebie. And then I can come in here and on the right click on edit page. Now this is what our page looks like. And what I’m going to do to make this super easy is I’m going to take a screenshot of this main part here. And I’m going to bring it over and I’m going to give that screenshot to chat GPT. And I’m going to tell it this is the template for my optin funnel. I’m giving away a set of five wildlife SVG files for laser engraving. A moose, owl, mountain lion, bison, and wolf. give me all the text for this optin funnel. Okay? And it’s going to look at that screenshot and it’s going to tell me exactly what to put and where to put it. So, right here, left side headline, what you get. We’re going to copy that and we’re going to come in here and it says what you get. We’re going to leave that just the way it is. Left side description, get instant access, and we’re going to copy that. We’re going to come over here and right here. We’re going to paste that right in. Okay. And I’m going to give it some spacing in here. Just like that. All right, that looks pretty good. Then I’m going to come back over here. And now it says right side headline. And I’m going to copy the right side. And this is the right side headline. We’ll paste that right in there. And I think I may make that a little smaller so it fits on two lines and center it just like that. Okay. And then my bullet points. We’ll grab these. And in here is where we’ll paste that. And again, I’m going to give a little bit of spacing. And I think I’m going to make this text just a little bit smaller. Okay, that looks pretty good. Just like that. I might I think I’m going to adjust the line height a little so everything’s not sp spread out quite as much. All right, that looks pretty good there. And then we’ll come over here and of course you know your first name, email, button text, get my free SVG bundle. So now we’ll click on our button and then over here on the left you’ll scroll scroll till you find button text and replace it. Just like that. And then underneath the small text under button right here, we’ll paste that in and replace it with what chat GPT told us to. Okay. Now, you can do different things here. It has now optional thank you page, confirmation line, um, stuff like that. But once you fill in this basic stuff right here, you’re essentially done. If you want to have a countdown, you can fill in this part at the top. I’m not going to do that. I’m just going to get rid of that part. And I’m going to scroll down here. And I’m going to get rid of these lower areas. I don’t need them for this basic funnel. And then here, I’m going to click on the image. And over here on the left, I’m going to select upload. And I am going to grab my mockup, my image that I created in KD with all of my designs on it. And we’re going to put that right there. And I [clears throat] think I’m going to make it just a little smaller. Not much. And I’m going to come down and scroll down and give it a little bit more of a radius on the corners. And I’m also going to give it a little bit of a shadow just to give it a little bit of depth. Okay. So, now there is my funnel. It is pretty much complete. Down at the bottom here, you’ll want to change the text down here at the bottom. Put your own website or your name in there and go to settings. Scroll down and you can give your page a title. And I’m going to put free wildlife SVG files. Okay. And once it looks good, just click save. And now your funnel is built. Then we’ll hit exit. And the next step is your thank you page. We’ll click on that. And again, we’re going to name this wildlife bundle. Thank you. And down here, we’re going to change this wildlife. Thank you. And then we will edit this page. And in here, once again, I’m going to replace this with the mockup. And it’s already uploaded. So, I can just grab it right here. Pop that in. Over here on the left, I can adjust the size of this. And we can come over here to our uh conversion. And we can say copy and paste. And we can make these smaller. Just like that. And down here, you can change this to whatever you want. I’m going to put download your wildlife SVG bundle because I put them here. And I’m going to select this button. And over here on the left, it says action when button is clicked is download file. So now I’m going to upload that zip with my files in it. my wildlife bundle freebie zip file. Okay. And we are now have that linked to this button. When somebody clicks this button, when they get sent here after signing up, they will click that and they can download. And you can remove this. It’s just a placeholder image. Um, you can change anything on here that you want. It’s completely up to you. Again, at the bottom, you would change this to your brand name. And once you have it looking the way you want it to, just click save and exit. And now your freebie funnel is built. If we come back here to the main page, we can click here and select the button that says viewfunnel step. And it’ll open this up in a new window for us. And you can see exactly what it looks like. You can see exactly what people who are visiting this page see. This is exactly what they’re going to see. And so now you can start sharing this URL, the link to this page in your message to buyer, in any email signatures, you know, in on Pinterest, on Facebook, on Insta, wherever it is that you promote, you can start promoting this freebie funnel and people will know. They come here, they give you their name, they give you their email, and they get free files from you or a free guide or a free cheat sheet. Whatever it is you want to create, it doesn’t matter. Whatever you think your customers will like and use, you can create and give to them for free in exchange for their name and email on your list.
