Most creators lose 90% of their audience because they rely on algorithms. The solution? Own your audience. Our new Newsletter and Form components turn your slnk.me page into a powerful lead generation engine.

The Newsletter Block

The NewsletterComponent is designed for friction-free signups. It's not just an input field; it's a conversion tool.

  • Custom CTA: Don't just say "Subscribe." Use the buttonLabel prop to say "Get My Free Guide" or "Join 5k+ Designers."
  • Success Messages: Configure a custom successMessage (e.g., "Check your inbox for the download link!") to provide instant gratification.
  • Zero Distraction: Unlike embedding a bulky Substack iframe, our native component matches your theme perfectly, ensuring higher conversion rates.

Custom Forms for Everything

Need more than just an email? The FormComponent is your Swiss Army knife.

  • Client Inquiries: Add text and textarea fields to create a "Work With Me" form directly on your bio page.
  • Feedback: Use a select dropdown to ask followers what content they want next (e.g., "Tutorials," "Vlogs," "Reviews").
  • Validation: We handle the boring stuff. Required fields are automatically checked so you don't get spam or empty submissions.

Placement Strategy

Where you put these forms matters.

  • Top of Page: For high-priority launches (e.g., "Waitlist for my course").
  • Footer: for passive newsletter growth.
  • Inside a Tab: Create a "Contact" tab to keep your main feed clean while still being accessible.
