"last day promotion.. tomorrow no more"
thats the common sales gimmick that you find everywhere.
like the title i use here.. some online news site use such titles to attract clicks.
and why do they use such trick?
because they know that it works for 80% of their target customers.
by creating sense of urgency, they 'help' you to make decision that you may never make otherwise.
sometimes it is for your own good.. because humans tend to procastinate.
sometimes it is not.
i don't use such trick and i hate it when someone use that to me.
i didn't join California Fitness simply because the sales girl used too much of her sales trick on me.
but honestly.. if the stuff is something that i know i really want..
i would end up listening to them.
and i am not blaming these people,
because they are not pointing their knives at me.
i made my own decision.
i have myself to blame because i am not any better or any wiser than the 80% of the society.
