Finally Worked Out My Funnel Problem - This Proper Had Me Dragging My Heels!

I think it was last month when I posted my question to other Wealthy Affiliate members.
Does anyone know a free way I can give away ebooks with a redirect after download to my lead capture?

I got a few answers such as try PayHip, Gumroad and MailerLite

I mean I suppose they were fair suggestions but really I was still banging my head against the wall over this.

Even to the point that I didn't blog for days because how much this was frustrating me BUT I am now pleased to say I figured out how to do this with my current Starter Plan with Systeme.io

I thought that I couldn't do this with my current limitations - I can only use 10 automation rules which I've nearly used up but what I have found out is there is a workaround.

So - my idea just to clear this up was that I wanted to make category specific opt ins (Blood Pressure, Blood Sugar etc.) with a free ebook as the incentive BUT I wanted to set this up so this goes to a thank you page that leads to my main lead capture.

Now, so I was looking at other options besides Systeme.io because I didn't think I could do this here but after messaging their support team - they told me I still had plenty of my funnel step allowance (you get 50 and I still had about 40 left).

It has took me some going back and forth but now I have a 5 step funnel that I am very happy with and even better the 1st step I can keep making different variations of for my different categories - 8-10 I'll use and hopefully this can be a good set up for collecting more leads.

I've still got a long way to go but this is a big achievement for me and will see how this all goes.
