A report preview traded for an email address
A report preview traded for an email address
Build a gated content block with Tailwind CSS in two columns. The left column shows the asset: a rounded-xl bordered card angled slightly with a transform, containing a mock report cover — a small publisher line, a bold title over three lines, a thin rule, and a footer with a page count and year — with a second card peeking from behind it to suggest depth. The right column carries a small "Free report" label, a heading, a paragraph on what is inside, a bulleted list of four findings with check glyphs, an email field with a dark "Send me the report" button beneath it, and a two-line consent note in small text explaining exactly what the email will be used for and offering an alternative link to read it in the browser without giving an address. Keep the tone honest — the alternative link should be genuinely prominent, not hidden. <section class="mx-auto max-w-5xl px-6 py-16">
