One of the most effective ways to drive customers into your store quickly is to create a sense of urgency in your marketing. Urgency is not necessarily just promoting a limited time or limited stock, but it is more about generating the sense of *need* from your customers.

In order to get customers to feel that they must urgently come to your business, you need to convince them that they need to come **right now**.

Here are some ways to build urgency within your marketing.

**1. Language:** Wording is essential when it comes to marketing. Using urgent words can motivate customers to visit your business right away. Urgent words include: “Don’t miss out,” “before it’s gone,” “last chance,” “now,” hurry,” and even “one time only.”

**2. What you are advertising is attractive:** If you are marketing a product that is not appealing to customers, it is harder to convince them to come in and see you. Remember that urgency is building the feeling of needing a product *now*, not creating a desire for the product.

**3. Numbers:** The use of numbers in marketing is more attention grabbing since customers will look to see what a cost or discount is. An example of this is “For 2 Days Only” or “20% off your purchase today only.” It is harder to ignore numbers when mixed into your advertising.

**4. Watch the colors:** Using the right colors can also build urgency for your customers. Cool colors, such as green and blue, are calming and will not build a kind of urgency to drive customers to you. Instead, warmer colors, such as red and orange, naturally will build impatience and anxiety to come to your store.

**5. Countdown timers:** For online marketing, you can have a countdown timer either on your landing page or even one that starts when a customer adds an item to an online shopping cart. The customer will then feel a sense of urgency and the need to close the sale immediately. To prepare for if the timer times out and the customer has yet to check out, use our [abandoned cart recovery tips](https://blog.gemfind.com/blog/abandon-cart-recovery-tips?hsLang=en-us) to encourage them to complete the purchase.
