Here are some quick tips for promoting your downloadable item:
- Create a hyperlink to the eBook and embed it in your email signature
- For in-person events such as trade shows, create a postcard with the eBook link and synopsis. Be sure to indicate it’s a “freebie.”
- Share on all your social media channels.
- Share with your partners, customers, the media (magazine editors or bloggers), and analysts.
- Create a landing page, microsite or blog post that will direct customers to your eBook
Prospective customers and clients are more likely to remember your business when you have a downloadable “freebie” such as a report or digital book. Downloable free items are also an excellent way to build your email list. Most eBooks can be created using .pdf apps such as Canva or Adobe Illustrator and then linked to your landing page or website.
