Creating content to capture interest
Lead generation isn’t just about cold calling or sales talk; remember that it is about capturing your target audience’s interest. Is there a better way to attract prospects than creating educational and informative content?
First, Present yourself or your company as experts or industry leaders in your field. Then, consistently publish compelling content. Lastly, optimize your call to action button.
Further, make sure to distribute your content to different social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and in your own mobile-friendly website to also target different demographics.
Ask for referrals
If your company has been consistently providing excellent products and services, you wouldn’t have a problem getting referrals from satisfied customers. Find the right timing to tap into your network and ask for people who might be interested in your offerings.

The plus side is, when you reach out to these referrals, you’re sure to get backed up by your satisfied customers’ words of praise. Hopefully, these will encourage referrals to convert into paying customers (and returning ones in the near future!).
Create scarcity
Creating scarcity is a psychological trick that has been proven effective over the past several years. Creating scarcity is making something appear limited, whether it be a discount on a membership, a book, bundle promos, etc. Making these offerings only available for a limited number of time or “until supplies last” will trick prospects into purchasing your product or services to see what the fuss was about.
