Do you still have database data from last year's holiday season? Even though the Covid19 pandemic is still ongoing, the data can be used to create a Leads Conversion Strategy.
One of them is the Countdown strategy or displaying a countdown timer on a pop-up on your website. Set the countdown to the specified time and date when your special offer ends.
Why does this strategy almost always work?
Because there is Urgency!
The emergence of feelings of #FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) helps influence the psychology of buyers. And this FOMO increases even more during weekends or during holidays, because everyone is in a hurry to ensure that leisure products arrive on time, namely right before the weekend starts! And consumers will quickly hit the buy now or purchase button if they think they will miss the opportunity to buy when the offer ends.
In marketing, this FOMO strategy takes advantage of consumers' feelings of worry with the aim of getting them to make purchases more quickly. Because if they are not fast, they will lose the opportunity to buy the product. Be it a discounted product, a product sold in limited quantities or something else.
FOMO is actually nothing new in the world of marketing. Since before the explosion of digital waves and technology, many well-known brands have used the FOMO marketing strategy. However, with the advent of the Internet, this strategy has become easier and more efficient to carry out.
From Shopify 2020 data, the average #consumerengagement rate of the “Countdown” strategy is: 8.82% Average countdown conversion rate: 5.44%.
