The Motley Fool starts with a lead magnet, rather than a newsletters subscribe page (such as ours), with an offer to be sent stocks that are down and could rebound.
Then after you put your email in, you get hit with a FOMO inducing welcome email with a link to get a stock report. This takes you to a landing page where you can pay for premium access.

we are literally sending someone to Aruba on an all expenses trip for 2
partner program → beach club
