But do you know if there is any concern about false advertising here. With the FTC cracking down on everything it might be something to think of. If you say prices go up in 24 hours and they really don't, I wonder if they consider that deceptive? I guess technically u "could" of been planning on upping them but decided not to. It just so happens u do it every day. I guess that can cover u. Nice posts and I’ll def start using more urgency. But do you know if there is any concern about false advertising here.

I learned about the double-whammy of scarcity ("Only 22 hours left to buy") and exclusivity ("Only 7 spots left") when Smaxor of Ads4Dough fame suggested all affiliate marketers read "Cashvertising" by Drew Eric Whitman. It's a great, quick read. It's a jam-packed 200 pages of information that will give you selling and ad-writing techniques for years to come. We've personally experienced the power of scarcity and exclusivity in selling memberships to a site we own. We've learned that if a consumer can get the same deal tomorrow as today, they will put off buying until tomorrow. Also, people are possessive and vain, and having something others do not, makes them feel better about themselves. Telling them that only X people are allowed in to a certain program, and they can be one of them, makes them whip out their credit cards much faster than if the same deal is available to everyone. Keep up the great work, I look forward to each new post. As always, great post Finch.
