Subject: A Lesson In Human Behavior

Hi {Name}, 

Today, I'd like to start by asking you to think 
back to the last time you bought a house, car
or other big ticket item. 

If you remember correctly, I guarantee you will 
remember the realtor, or salesperson, at some
point cutting you short by asking you to think 
it over - and as an aside - they mentioned that 
they had to attend to other parties that also 
wanted to look at the particular house/car that
you were looking at. 

WHY DO THEY ALL DO THAT? 

I guarantee that the moment you heard 
someone else might be competing with 
you to own said house/car you immediately
felt compelled to make an offer - more quickly
and slightly higher, than what you felt was 
optimal. 

This is human nature: 

It's a fact: People are competitive in acquiring 
good deals, and they are also motivated to take 
action faster when they FEAR they may miss out! 

Sales people know this about human psychology 
and they have learned to use it to push us along
in making what they feel is the right decision. 

In fact, they sort of need to remind us of reasons
to act fast because...

A. We may truly miss out on something we want

B. They as sales people can't afford to spend entire 
days with you - if you are only a tire kicking 
daydreamer. 

It's even more important to use this sort of psychology
on web-surfers because the Internet is so huge - if 
buyers don't act immediately - they may never find 
the website that offered the great deal again! 

It's paramount to your success that you use any 
means at your disposal to encourage people to 
act immediately on your website. 

A happy customer is a repeat customer - but you need
to make them a customer first! 

The branch of marketing psychology that we are talking 
about here, is often called "The Scarcity Principle. 

Probably the best example of this online, is EBay.com

Do you remember their ads, "It's more fun to win it!" 

These EBay ads referred to the excitement of competition 
generated by the online auctions that made them a
household name and billions of dollars!
