Hey guys and welcome back to my channel.
In today's video I'm going to be sharing with you how to add your freebie PDF to Wix for
download for your subscribers.
This freebie, also called an opt-in or lead magnet, such as my FREE Facebook groups spreadsheet
for bloggers, will be connected to a landing page or blog post on your site, in such a
way that when a visitor fills out the opt-in form, they automatically receive the freebie
in their email, without any extra work on your end.
So stay tuned until the end of this video to learn how to add your freebie PDF to Wix
for download for your subscribers, and to get a FREE how to create a freebie in Canva
guide to help you design your freebie if you haven't done so already, even if you're not
design-savvy.
Also, make sure to subscribe and hit the bell to be notified every time I post a new video.
With that said let's go ahead and jump right in.
We'll be using an email marketing software called ConvertKit to set up this automatic
system.
If you don’t have a ConvertKit account yet, just click on the link in the description
box below to set yours up.
They have a free plan, so you can get started today without paying a thing.
Once in your ConvertKit account, click on 'landing pages and forms', and then on the
red 'create new’ button.
You will be prompted with two options on how to gather subscribers: 'form' and 'landing
page'.
Click on ‘form’.
As for your form’s display format, which is the next question that pops up, click on
'inline', and as for your form template, click on 'choose' on the middle option in the top
row.
You can rename the form by clicking on the pencil icon next to where it says 'Clare form',
and changing that to your freebie's name.
You can edit the form’s text by clicking directly on the text and changing it from
the panel that appears on the right.
For a more detailed walkthrough on what you can do with ConvertKit forms, make sure to
watch my video on 'how to customize a ConvertKit opt-in form'.
The link to it is in the description box below.
Remember to click on ‘save’ up top once you have finished making your edits.
To edit the form’s incentive email that's sent out automatically after someone subscribes
to it, and add your freebie to said email, click on the ‘email’ icon.
Make sure that 'send incentive email' has a green checkmark next to it, and then click
on 'edit email contents'.
Add your email from address, and edit the email's subject line, as well as message.
You can even customize the text that appears on the button where your visitors will click
on to get your freebie.
Once you've finished editing the incentive email, click on the x in the top, right-hand
corner.
To link that button we just customized to your freebie, where it says 'after confirming
redirect to', click on 'download' instead of 'URL'.
Click on ‘choose a file’, select the freebie you created from your computer, and then click
on 'open'.
Again, remember to click on ‘save’ up top once you have finished making your edits.
To get the embed code of this form to add to your Wix website, click on ‘embed’
up top, then on ‘HTML’, and copy the entire piece of code that appears.
Back on your Wix website, either on your landing page or blog post, if you need help on how
to create a landing page in Wix, I already created a tutorial on 'How To Make A Beautiful
Landing Page In Wix That Converts' and on 'How To Build A FREE High Converting Landing
Page In Wix', I'll leave the links to those in the description box below, paste the HTML
code from ConvertKit.
For instance, click on a new line, then on the + icon that appears on the left, and select
the code icon.
Click on the pencil icon to add HTML code, paste your code from ConvertKit in the space
provided, and then click on 'update'.
Remember to click on 'publish changes' on the top, right hand corner to make these changes
active.
To see how this form with your freebie PDF works in action, open up the blog post you
just published, and fill out the form with your information.
When you open up your email, you'll notice that there's an email from you waiting for
you to take action.
Once you click on the button in the email, your freebie will automatically open up, which
you can download to your computer.
Now you know how to add your freebie PDF to Wix for download for your subscribers.
