But your audience are humans and by nature fickle-minded. Some may take their sweet time to compare prices among competing online merchants while others will keep postponing their purchase decisions in the hopes of a better deal in the near future. The longer the customers take to make up their minds, the higher the chances that they may talk themselves out of making a purchase.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Give customers a nudge by incorporating a sense of urgency in your email<\/h2>\n<p>This is where psychology comes into play. We will appeal to their fear of missing out (FOMO) by having a deadline for purchasing the items which are on sale. Highlight the fact that after the deadline, the prices will be a lot higher. With an urgent call to action right in the email content, they can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t help but feel the pressure to make a decision quickly.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Make it more effective with a dynamic countdown clock<\/h2>\n<p>If you want to increase the urgency factor, throw in a dynamic countdown clock in your email. When they see the number of hours and minutes ticking down, their minds will be in a take action mode. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s akin to having time running out when you are back in school taking an exam. We have all been conditioned to act fact whenever there is a countdown going on.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Throw in a deal sweetener<\/h2>\n<p>You can make the deal sweeter by giving out free items with every purchase before the deadline. This is a common tactic to make the customers think that by buying now, they are getting even better value for their money. Let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s face it, who doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t love scoring a great deal and getting free stuff as well. That appeals to everyone\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s inner child for sure.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Offer free delivery<\/h2>\n<p>Considering the shipping costs that some online merchants charge for big or hefty items, being able to save on that can be a huge factor to make someone decide to finally splurge on that big-ticket item. Add that to the urgency equation and you will surely see a huge boost in your sales as customers rush to make their purchases before time runs out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2 class=\"m-bottom-5\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Get started with MailboxValidator<\/h2>\n<p class=\"m-bottom-5 is-size-20\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Improve your email deliverability and sender reputation in email marketing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"m-bottom-5 is-size-20\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Register today and clean your email lists for <strong>FREE<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"maxbutton-1 maxbutton maxbutton-sign-up-bulk-trial\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"No Setup Fee.
