Getting People to Buy Now!
by Mark Joyner
CEO, Aesop Marketing Corporation

It's absolutely essential that you give people a reason to buy your product *now*.

Look at your marketing and ask yourself: "if I were a customer, would I have a reason to buy this product today (as opposed to tomorrow)?"

If your answer is no, then you need to re-think your strategy.

Here are 3 ways to compel your prospect to buy now:

a. Time Limited Discount
Offer your product at a discounted price, but only for a limited time.

b. Time Limited Bonus
Offer an added bonus, but only for a limited time.

c.  Show Urgency and Immediate Benefit that Could be Lost
Is there something your product offers that would benefit someone now, but only if acted upon immediately?

As always, marketing is only effective if you test it. Test these ideas out and post your results to our forum!
