#227 How to Use Gated Content and Forms Strategically with Liz Coralli

Unicorns Unite: The Freelance Digital Marketing Virtual Assistant Community

Funnel Series #3

We’re diving into two hot topics in the online business world: when to gate your content and how to make forms work for you. To help us nerd out, I’ve brought in Liz Coralli, the training manager at ActiveCampaign. I was at this training this past spring, where she mentioned she could chat about forms for an entire episode—so of course I had to have her on!

Liz runs Study Halls—multi-day, in-person workshops where she helps attendees dive deep into ActiveCampaign’s powerful features. She makes this tech feel approachable and fun. Based in Colorado, she loves exploring the Rocky Mountains but is also traveling the world with ActiveCampaign, leading workshops that I highly recommend for anyone looking to level up their skills by specializing in the tech that the higher-level entrepreneurs are using.
