Build your email list with a Whitepaper


Hello Reader,

Creating a whitepaper accomplishes two important goals:

  1. Positions yourself as an authority on a topic
  2. Builds your email list with a Lead Magnet

Making a whitepaper doesn't have to be hard. You already know a bunch of valuable information. All you have to do is package it up as a Lead Magnet:

This is the first trick of a good whitepaper: solve a problem of low difficulty, that requires a lot of expertise.

The second trick: close it with a compelling Call-to-Action. (You can use my CTA Worksheet if you need help.)

The third trick: set up your whitepaper as an opt-in incentive, so people receive it after subscribing to your email newsletter. (My online course, the Marketing Automation Planner, can help you set that up.)

If you have an idea for your next whitepaper, then you should come to my Whitepaper Workshop.

I'll be sharing with all attendees:

  • The simple outline found in all the best whitepapers
  • A fill-in-the-blank workbook template
  • My personal swipe folder with nearly 2 dozen great examples

Join me for this free, interactive workshop, and you will leave with an outline for your next whitepaper, and practical techniques for making it great.

You're already registered, so I'll see you there!

If you don't mind, please forward this email to someone you know who would benefit from attending.

They are better able to see through LLM errors and hallucinations; they are better judges of AI output in their area of interest; they are better able to instruct the AI to do the required job; and they have the opportunity for more trial and error. That lets them unlock the latent expertise within LLMs in ways that others could not.” – Ethan Mollick Hello Reader, The next time you don't like the results from your AI, use this Expert Feedback prompt: Review...

🧭 “The purpose of meetings is not to talk – the purpose of meetings is to arrive at ideas, solutions, plans, and decisions.” - Alexander Kjerulf Hello Reader, I have tried all the AI meeting notetakers over the past few years. Fireflies, Otter, Fathom, Monologue, and more have all had a turn in my systems. Traditionally, I give them a month or two, and get dissatisfied at some feature or annoying user friction - until six months ago. I found Granola. (Disclaimer: by clicking my affiliate...
