How to Turn Your Flipbook into a Powerful Lead Magnet

Stop Just Sharing Content. Start Building Your Audience.

You've created a beautiful, engaging flipbook. You've shared the link. People are viewing it, but then what? If you're a business, marketer, or creator, just getting views isn't enough. The real goal is to turn those viewers into a dedicated audience you can connect with again and again.

This is where a lead magnet comes in. A lead magnet is a valuable piece of content you offer in exchange for a user's contact information, like their email address. And with Fflipp, your flipbook is the perfect lead magnet.

This guide will show you how to use one of our most powerful Business plan features: the Lead Capture Gate.

What is a Lead Capture Gate?

A Lead Capture Gate (also known as an email gate) is a simple form that appears before a user can view your flipbook. It requires them to enter their name and email address to unlock the content. Once they submit the form, they get immediate access, and you get a new, valuable lead for your email list.

It's a classic win-win: they get your amazing content, and you get a direct line to a potential customer or fan.

Why Should You Use It?

• Build Your Mailing List: It's the most direct way to grow your audience with people who are genuinely interested in what you have to offer.
• Qualify Your Leads: Anyone willing to provide their email to read your report or catalog is a highly qualified lead.
• Measure Your ROI: You can directly measure the success of your content by seeing how many leads it generates.

How to Set Up Your Lead Capture Gate in 3 Easy Steps

Setting this up in Fflipp is incredibly simple. You can have it running in under 3 minutes.

Step 1: Enable Lead Capture Mode

First, navigate to the Advanced Editor for the flipbook you want to use as a lead magnet. Go to the "Privacy & Access" tab. Here, you'll see several privacy options. Simply select the "Lead-Capture (Email Gate)" option and save.

Step 2: Customize Your Form

Once you've selected Lead Capture mode, a new editor will appear. This is where you can customize the form to match your brand and message:

• Gate Title: The main headline of the form (e.g., "Unlock Your Free Guide").
• Gate Description: A short paragraph explaining the value of what they're about to receive.
• Button Text: The text for the submit button (e.g., "Get Instant Access").
• Use Brand Logo: If you have a Brand Kit set up, you can choose to display your own logo on the form for a fully branded experience.

Step 3: View and Export Your Leads

That's it! Your email gate is now live. As people submit the form, their information will be collected in your dashboard.

To see your collected leads, go to the Advanced Editor and click on the "Leads" tab. You'll see a clean list of everyone who has signed up. From there, you can click the "Export as CSV" button to download the list and import it into your favorite email marketing service (like Mailchimp, ConvertKit, etc.).

⭐ Pro Tip: How to Test Your Form

The Lead Capture Gate is designed for your viewers, not for you (the creator). To see the form exactly as your audience will, you must either log out of your Fflipp account or open your flipbook link in a private/incognito browser window.
