Internet Marketing – Countdown timers – do they help, or hinder your business?

Omar Martin (US):

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in

12 years as an affiliate its that 

IMPULSE is the key.

Nobody calls a family meeting to

decide whether or not they’re

going to buy your info product.

Nobody plans it in their calendar

either.

It’s not like they roll over

in bed and say “Honey, I sure

hope to get an email that sells

me something today.”

Your marketing interrupts the

natural flow of something they

were already doing like…

Checking their emails,

scrolling down their facebook feed,

reading memes etc. 

So it comes down to your ability to

RAISE IMPULSE. 

Getting their propensity to buy from

zero to PURCHASE as fast as possible.  

We do this with the 4 factors of impulse.

The F.I.G.S.

Fear of loss. 

(only x amount remaining

                                        at this price)

Indifference. 

(we are closing either way)

Greed. 

(look at mary – she bought one)

Sense of urgency. 

(time is running out)

Using one or 2 of these will increase

your sales.

Using all 4 will make you a super affiliate

on the clickbanks so be careful!

I believe urgency is the most powerful.

We demonstrate this with a

COUNTDOWN TIMER. 

Urgency is not scarcity.

Scarcity is when you are

running out of products.

Urgency is when you are

running out of time.

Stress to them that

they are going to miss out

on a huge saving/bonuses,

if they procrastinate!

THERE IS NO BETTER WAY TO

PORTRAY URGENCY THAN BY

EMBEDDING A TIMER

INSIDE YOUR EMAILS
