14 Blogging Tips to Get More Leads
IF you want to get more leads, the best way is blogging and here are my best blogging tips and tricks.
I’ve been sharing a lot of these blogging tips with my private blogging association and wanted to share with you too!
What Do I mean “Get More Leads?”
When I tell people that my blog gets over 3,000 leads per month some people ask what I consider a lead so let me help you out with that…
I consider a lead as someone who has voluntarily entered their name, email and possibly phone number into a form asking for more information. In my exact example it means that over 3,000 people per month enter their name and email in the upper right hand corner of this website to get my 29 sources of leads on audio.
In case you didn’t know, the entire point of blogging is to get more leads. Now, onto those blogging tips!
Should You Start a Blog?
In today’s environment, I simply think that every single serious business owner should have a blog. They don’t necessarily have to do it exactly the way I do it but blogging is the very best way to brand yourself, get repeat traffic, build relationships on a mass scale and it is very simple to do.
In the below blogging tips for beginners I share the big obstacles most people have that prevent them from starting a blog but they really shouldn’t let these things stop them as my entire business has really been built with my blogs. Yes, in the beginning I hustled to get 20 no’s per day via prospecting but that just isn’t needed anymore because of all the leads we generate now.

5 Blogging Tips for Beginners
1. Stop letting technology push you around. It is so inexpensive to get someone to handle your technology, stop trying to do everything yourself unless you absolutely love doing it. I used to let technology push me around but thank goodness I got over that. I still do this day have ZERO idea how to put together a blog site, create a capture page or program about anything. Let someone else that LOVES to do that handle it for you.
2. Stop waiting until you feel you are a guru to help others out. There are more people wanting education than people that provide education. Help someone already. Share what you are learning and stop thinking you have to be a guru to start your own blog. I was NOT a guru or even known at all in this space when I started blogging, my blog is what helped me create my brand and following.
3. Here are a few easy ideas for what to talk about on your blog or what we call “content creation”. 1. ILT. I have a book coming out soon that teaches in more depth how to do this but ILT stands for invest, learn, teach and this is where you simply blog about what you are learning that your target market might be interested in. There literally is never a time when I buy a course, read a book or attend an event that I don’t share at least some of what I learn with my tribe (those who follow my blog and are on my email list). In the last two years my wife and I have invested over $209,000 in our education and our tribe probably gets to learn a large chunk of that at no cost. My coaching clients and students certainly learn more but my estimate is the value for the education we put out for absolutely free is probably around $50,000 a year.
Another easy idea for content creation is simply ask questions to the people you are trying to attract more of. If you know the perfect person you would love to work with, ask them what questions they have about what you do or what your product or service offers and then blog about that.
4. The point of a blog is to get more leads, if you want to get more leads, you need to have a compelling giveaway. Notice my giveaway at the top right of this page, it isn’t “join my newsletter”, “Subscribe” or anything generic like that, it is specific. MOST bloggers don’t need more traffic, although they think they do, they need a better way to convert traffic into leads.
5. Speaking of traffic, the very best way to get more traffic is to be more consistent. This means more regularly creating content and blog posts AND emailing their ever-growing list that blog post.
