A resource list is a great idea to use as a lead magnet. It is typically a list of articles, websites, tools and others that you want to add. Resource list acts as a huge help to the researchers where they can simply click on the link.
Remember not just to add the links, convert it to PDF and leave it as it is. Think of a unique way to create a resource so that your subscribers may feel that they’re receiving a high-quality lead magnet.

Using this lead magnet is useful to your blog subscribers since they can read your blogs after downloading the pdf without accessing the internet at any time.
3. Checklist
Creating a checklist is the easiest and quickest lead magnet, and it works for a lot of industries as well. For example, if you’re selling skin care products, you may create a blog about skin care and make a checklist which products are needed to be used to achieve healthy skin. The checklist that you prepared can be downloaded for free by signing up their emails.
The checklist is no fuss to use to most users. Once they downloaded it, they can use it right away.

The calendar can be easily downloaded to help the subscribers on achieving their fitness goals. For example, a diet meal plan or daily exercise routines associated with the timeline.
The calendar lead magnet can be used more creatively. For example, if you are selling stationery products, surely your target customers are for students and office personnel, you can create a calendar lead magnet with a study plan or add daily motivational quotes on the calendar to inspire the students while studying.
