Yes, those "small wins" are great topics for blog posts, and the blog posts give you something to contact your list of subscribers about.
As for lead magnets, the list I am currently growing is not driven by a freebie offer at all! Well, there is no free ebook, just the promise that I will show people how to accumulate crypto for free. It seems to work, so maybe a freebie download is not as necessary as is often thought, if you have an enticing enough proposal to lead with.
Whether is a freebie or not, it can even be a group of posts or emails, as long as it gives quick wins people will come back for you for more.
Even the freebies aren't that free per see if you consider time a type of investment!
Either way, the goal is to keep your audience happy and hungry for more that we have to show :)
