Lead magnets at Cittago

The customer you lose today isn’t lost. They’re just not ready yet

Think about how you buy: you look, compare, leave and come back a few weeks later, if something reminds you. Your customers are no different.

Yet most websites give them only two doors: buy now, or disappear.

A lead magnet is the third door: something genuinely useful, such as a guide, a calculator or an honest price guide, offered in exchange for an email address. Then a few well-written messages, sent at the right moment, keep the conversation going until the person is ready. We’ve been building these quiet mechanisms since 2011, and they’re often the cheapest growth a business can buy.

What you get

What we build for you

A useful magnet, a single-purpose page and a follow-up that keeps the conversation going.

01

A magnet worth the swap

Something your customers genuinely want.

Something your customers genuinely want, not a brochure in disguise. If it isn’t worth an email address, we don’t ship it.

02

A single-purpose page

It offers the magnet and asks for nothing else.

A simple, good-looking page that offers the magnet and asks for nothing else: no menus, no noise, no dozens of buttons.

03

Follow-up written person to person

It helps first, and only then sells.

A short email series that helps first and only then sells, sent only to people who asked for it.

The email marketing page
04

Numbers you can act on

What a lead costs and what it’s worth.

You know what a lead costs and what it’s worth. When the maths works, we scale up; when it doesn’t, we change course.

05

Traffic that reaches the door

Ads bring people in; the magnet keeps them.

Google and Meta ads bring people to the door; the magnet opens it, and email shows them in.

The Google Ads page
06

Joined up end to end

From form to CRM, no copying and pasting.

The address goes straight into the right list and the CRM, and the follow-up starts without anyone pressing a button.

The automation page

Do you also need a website, SEO or email marketing? We are a full team: what we do not do directly, we deliver with trusted partners, to the same standard.

What it is not

What a lead magnet at Cittago is not

Four things you will not get from us.

  • A brochure in disguise

    The magnet has to be useful in its own right; otherwise it isn’t worth an email address.

  • Bought lists

    We only write to people who asked for the magnet, with their consent.

  • A page with ten offers

    One job per page: the magnet, and nothing else.

  • A hard sell from the first email

    We help first, then invite, at the person’s own pace.

How we work

How we build a lead magnet

It all starts with your visitors’ journey. Then, three stages.

It all starts with a conversation: we look at where your visitors come from and where they drop off, and sketch the magnet we’d build first. From there, our method has three stages.

  1. 01

    We find where people drop off

    Where visitors come from and where they leave.

    We follow the visitor journey, from the ad or search to the page they abandon.

  2. 02

    We build the magnet and the page

    Something useful, on a single-purpose page.

    We choose the magnet worth the swap and build the page that offers it, with nothing extra.

  3. 03

    We write the follow-up and measure

    Messages that help, then the numbers.

    We write the short email series and track what each lead costs and what it’s worth.

Boutique studio

What it means to work with a boutique studio

Four things you notice in the day-to-day collaboration.

01

Few clients, time for each

Few clients, so every account gets the time it needs.

We do not take on every project. We work with a small number of clients, so that every account gets the time and attention it needs.

02

The same person, from the first conversation

The strategist from the first conversation is the one who manages your campaigns.

The senior strategist you talk to at the first meeting is the one who manages your campaigns. We do not hand you over to someone else once we start.

03

Involved in your business

We look at the whole path to the sale, not just at the ads.

We are glad about every new customer we bring you. That is why we do not stop at the ads: we also look at the offer, the website and the message, so that the whole path to the sale works.

04

Relationships that last

Some clients have worked with us for over 10 years.

Some clients have worked with us for over 10 years. It is not us saying it: they wrote it themselves, in their Google reviews.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about lead magnets

Direct answers to what people ask us before the first conversation.

1What does the lead magnet and funnel service include?

Four things: a genuinely useful magnet (a guide, a calculator or an honest price guide), a single-purpose page that offers it in exchange for an email address, a short series of follow-up emails written by a person, and clear numbers on what each lead costs and what it’s worth.

2How is it different from ads that go straight to the website?

Ads bring visitors to the door, and most leave without buying. A lead magnet is the third door: it holds on to people who aren’t ready yet by offering something useful in exchange for their address, and the follow-up keeps the conversation going until the time is right.

3Is it right for a small business?

Yes. Lead magnets are often the cheapest growth a business can buy, so they suit smaller budgets too. We’re a boutique agency in Cluj-Napoca with a senior team, working in English, Romanian and Italian.

4What’s the first step, and what does it cost?

The first step is a free 30-minute conversation with a senior strategist: we look at where visitors drop off and sketch the first magnet we’d build, which is yours to keep either way. We agree the price afterwards, based on your goals.

Let's get acquainted

The first meeting is free and lasts 30 minutes: online, by phone or, if you are in Cluj, over a coffee. You tell us about your business, and we tell you honestly how we can help.

Prefer a message? You can reach us on WhatsApp, by email or by phone and we will reply directly.

No preparation and no follow-up pressure. If we are not a good fit, you leave with better questions to ask whoever comes next.
