Creating a sense of urgency with a downloadable product
I have a downloadable product, and want to create a sense of urgency for people to buy it. I HATE, (loathe, despise, etc) the following urgency tactics:
1) cheesy timers that say the offer expires in 5, 4, 3, 2 minutes.
2) limited supplies, (duh, it's downloadable. I'd like to think my audience is smarter than that)
3) the price goes up in 1, 2, 3, etc minutes
4) I'm taking it all offline at midnight tonight!
So does anyone have any suggestions on how I could create urgency and not feel like a sleazy IM-salesman?
One thing that I was thinking is saying I'm releasing a limited number of programs each month. The program is a 2-hour video, so bandwidth is a realistic concern, but explaining that may be too technical...
Thanks!
