I could call this post “Infusionsoft Double Opt-Ins That Don’t Suck!”

Imagine this … You have put together the world’s most valuable lead magnet. You spent money on Facebook advertising to get a new contact to opt-in to your lead magnet. Then, being the good citizen that you are, you sent them a double opt-in request, and …

<Crickets!>

Frustrating, right?

You could be losing 80% – 90% of your opt-ins at the double opt-in step!

If you care about conversion, I am going to take you on a deep dive into an often overlooked – but costly – piece of our Infusionsoft marketing funnel … the double opt-in request.

You will learn four different ways to tweak a double opt-in request, including:

1) How-to get the stock Infusionsoft snippet to deliver content even if they don’t opt-in
2) How-to send reminders to double opt-in using the stock Infusionsoft snippet
3) How-to build a custom double opt-in process that gives you more control over the branding and message
4) How-to build a custom double opt-in that redirects to a page on your site instead of that ugly black box on an empty page!

Be sure to let me know what questions you have, either here or in my Facebook Group
