477. Why Your Freebie Isn't Converting (And What to Fix First)


Listen Later

If your freebie isn't turning into clients, the problem is probably not what you think.

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down why so many coaches assume they need to create a brand new freebie…when the real issue is usually somewhere else in the process.

Because I see this happen all the time.

A coach creates a freebie, promotes it for a little while, doesn't immediately get traction and then decides the answer is to create another one. And then another one. Until suddenly they have 10 freebies and still no consistent leads or clients.

But the truth is, your freebie doesn't exist in isolation.

There's an entire process that has to work around it—from people seeing it, understanding it, wanting it, downloading it, consuming it, and then actually taking the next step with you.

And if one part of that process breaks down, the whole thing feels like it's "not converting."

In this episode, I walk you through the full freebie funnel, the five biggest areas where things usually go wrong, and how to actually diagnose the problem before you throw your current freebie away and start over.
