When you work online one of the most important tools you can use is a Lead Capture Page. Also known as a squeeze page, or a landing page, this is designed specifically to help you to build your list of contacts. It is usually used in conjunction with an autoresponder account which can be set up to send out pre-written emails to everyone on your contact list.
The whole point behind a lead capture page is to literally capture the contact details of your leads so you can email them again later. The addition of an autoresponder account is what allows you to set up automation that works for you while you spend your time as you choose.
If you have ever heard the saying “The Fortune is in the Follow Up” you will no doubt already understand the importance of being able to have regular contact with your leads. The truth is the majority of sales or new registrations happen after at least 5 – 10 follow up messages have been sent to a potential customer or team member. So if you have no way to contact them the chances are high they will not convert into paid customers.
Now you know how important it is to use a capture page, lets look at how to create one. There are many tools available that you can use, but personally I love using the free landing page creator tool available to everyone on Leadsleap.
You can begin building your list for free and can send a broacast to that list once or twice a month, but the upgrade offer is reduced if you upgrade with in the first week or so that will open up the ability to set up a followup list to continue to followup with your leads.
Once you join and verify your email look at the menu on the left side of the members page. Scroll down to Page Builder Page Builder…
Create Your Page
After clicking on Page Manager in the side menu you will be taken to a new page which looks like this:
Click on the blue Add a New Campaign button, and you will see a popup form asking you to name the campaign. This is so you can identify it in the Leadsleap back office. I suggest using a name that relates to the offer or business you want to promote. Something like Get New Leads on Autopilot or something similar…
Choose A Template
The Next Step you Click on the “Launch Editor” it will open up the Page Editor. It will be on the left of the Editor Page.
At the top, circled in red is the template choices you have several choices, there are several options and you can edit but for now pick one that fits your offer.
These templates are fully customizable – You can change every component to create your own unique page design.
When you click on a template it will open in the design screen. To the left and right are different menus which allow you to change everything on the page:
Simply click on any part of the visual image of the page in the middle, and the corresponding design menu will open to the right side. Here you can change the text, the size, the colour, the image etc.
The menu to the left allows you to add or remove rows and columns on the page. For example I could delete the image row (shown surrounded by dots in the design image), or add more rows etc.
A Little Tip after every step be sure to SAVE by hitting the Green Button in the Top right corner. if you need to undo you can also click the Undo button next to the Save and go back a couple steps if you need.
Connect to a List
The next step is to connect to a list. This will allow you to connect your Lead Capture page to your list.
To do that will take you to a small box titled ‘choose a list manager’. Here you can choose the manager provided by Leadsleap or by a 3rd party provider. I use the Leadsleap manager most of the time.
Next you need to link this Capture page to a specific email list. There is a link to list option and a create new list link:
I will assume you haven’t added a list yet, so you need to click on Add New List. A page similar to the new landing page one opens and you click on the blue add a new list button. You need to name this list (I suggest using the same name as the landing page.)
After creating a list you can go back to the Capture page creator page and click on the blue get list ID button. Now choose the list you have just created from the list.
You have now linked this Capture page to a specific email list.
Now What?
You now have a completed Lead Capture Page. You can now go to your Leads Leap Members page and scroll down the menu to the Page Manager. Find your New Capture Page…
Once you find your Capture page click on the use button (if you are a free member you will only have one choice) and use that link in your Traffic sources to drive Traffic and build your list.
Place your link in Safelist ads, Traffic Exchanges or paid Traffic site to get people to your page and start capturing leads.
