Here's Why Free Content Is A Bad Idea
Free content grows your warm audience but where's the fun without a contrarian twist?
Just a thought:
- providing too much content for free may make potential clients question the value of your paid offers
- prospects may wonder why they should pay for something when they can get it for free
- attracting only those who only want free resources
This is why having a large audience and/or a large number of likes does not equate growth.
Solution?
Strike a balance between free and paid:
- offer free samples
- tease premium content
- offer freemium models
- provide paid extras
- use gated content (such as those in paid communities)
