How to Leverage FOMO Without Being Sleazy
Manage episode 480061253 series 3558204
When it comes to promotions, there’s one word that can either make you cringe... or cash in: FOMO. In this episode, I’m sharing why FOMO isn’t a dirty word — it’s actually your secret weapon for getting customers off the fence and into action, without sounding pushy, salesy, or desperate.
I’m telling you a story about one of the worst marketing decisions I ever made (spoiler: it involved a dusty TV screen and a golf club), and what it taught me about creating real urgency the right way. We’re diving deep into how to use urgency and scarcity ethically — with tips you can actually apply today, like:
How to create momentum even if your numbers are small
Why your first and last day emails matter more than anything else
How to leverage SMS and real-time tools to boost last-minute sales
Plus, how one of my accelerator members turned a personal birthday into a brilliant, heart-driven campaign (that her customers loved!)
If you’ve ever struggled with feeling “icky” about selling, or worried you were being annoying by sending that extra email…
This episode is for you.
Let’s reframe FOMO — from pushy to powerful — together.
See you inside,
Sal
