When people become interested in your brand and your product, if they don't have a way to take the next step, you've kind of stunted the growth potential of your business. You can have this amazing PDF document or something that you're giving away – but if you don't have an easy way for people to find this option to download your amazing guide, or program, or recipe, it becomes cumbersome to receive it. It becomes like your best-kept secret. And we don't want your marketing to be in secret, we want your marketing to be something that everyone knows about and everyone is aware of. The way to do that is to make sure that you have multiple ways throughout your website that people can drop their name and email address in to access your materials to get on your email list.
