⚡ Elementor Pop-Up Setup Checklist

1. Create the pop-up: In Elementor, go to Templates → Popups → Add New. Choose a blank canvas.
2. Set the trigger: On Exit Intent (best for blog posts), or On Scroll (50–60% down the page). Avoid auto-display under 5 seconds — it interrupts before they've read anything.
3. Set the condition: Apply this pop-up only to blog posts that are topically relevant to the lead magnet. Do NOT apply site-wide unless the freebie is universal.
4. Connect your form: Use Elementor's Form widget and connect to your email platform (MailerLite, ConvertKit, FluentCRM, etc.) via integration or webhook.
5. Set the cookie: After dismiss or submission, suppress the pop-up for 30 days so returning readers aren't shown it again immediately.
6. Set the frequency: Show once per session. Don't repeat on every page load.
7. Mobile display: Test on mobile. In Elementor popup settings, you can disable pop-ups on mobile if they hurt UX — or create a separate slimmer mobile version.
8. Thank you state: Use the Form widget's "Success Message" or redirect to your Thank You page with the tripwire offer after form submission.

Remove this guide card before using the template in production. The pop-up template above is everything between the popup div tags.
