The ‘fear of missing out’? How to use FOMO in Social Media Marketing?

How many of us know about FOMO marketing? Let us share with you 6 worthy insights about FOMO and how they can excite your customers to make reactive purchases.

1. FOMO stands for ‘fear of missing out’. Missing out of what? It is a perception that other people have better things, more fun or better experience than you. Hence, create a feeling that you also want what other people are having now.

2. FOMO marketing creates a sense of urgency and scarcity. How? You can impart fear to your target audience to market your products and services. Let them feel, they are going to lose an amazing opportunity if they don’t take it now. For example, be the first 50 customers to get a special free gift. 

3. Set a time limit. Perhaps you should shout ‘Deals of the day!’ Your customers know that they only got 24 hours to get that big discount. Even open orders for food and beverages in limited time intrigue impulsive purchases. 

4. Share reviews and testimonials.  Happy customers’ reviews on your products will attract other customers wanting to buy and use your product. Great testimonials show that your existing customers enjoy your products and services. It gives additional score on your product values. FOMO marketing surely helps to boost sales.

5. Show countdown timer to show visitors they’re running out of time. Real time numbers would create FOMO in your audience. Example, 01:02:45 to countdown triggers customers to buy within the duration of 1 hour 2 minutes and 45 seconds before the deal ends. 

6. Create competition. You can share your product availability like what we see in hotel booking, ‘We have 3 rooms left’. It makes you to book faster, because you are afraid of fully booked scenario. With that and competitive price, it plants some frenzies in customers mind to get it immediately, or you’re going to miss it. 

Well, now you know about FOMO marketing, let’s apply in your marketing strategies today in multiple channels of your social media platforms. Remember, attract and engage your followers, convert them into customers and boost your sales!

Volunteer sekolah orang asli

 Pada 18 November yang lalu, saya menjadi sukarelawan di bawah sebuah organisasi bernama Bila Bila Odyssey, yang menganjurkan satu program di SK Bukit Bangkong (A), sebuah sekolah Orang Asli berhampiran Sungai Pelek, dalam kawasan komuniti Mah Meri. Sekolah tersebut mempunyai kurang daripada 120 orang murid dari Tahun 1 hingga Tahun 6. Program yang dijalankan berfokus kepada STEM, dan murid-murid dibahagikan kepada enam kelas. Saya ditugaskan untuk mengajar mereka cara membuat plastisin sebagai salah satu aktiviti pembelajaran. Setiap sesi dijalankan selama lebih kurang 15 minit. Saya sendiri sebenarnya turut belajar bersama kanak-kanak ini. Secara ringkas, cara membuat plastisin bermula dengan mencampurkan 10 sudu tepung dan 1 sudu garam, kemudian digaul rata. Dalam bekas lain, air dicampurkan dengan pewarna makanan dan untuk kelas ini kami menggunakan warna merah dan biru. . Air berwarna itu dituangkan sedikit demi sedikit ke dalam campuran tepung tadi, lalu diuli sehingga adunan...

Witty Game : Breakout at NU Sentral

 I recently went to Breakout at NU Sentral and played “The War for Rembrandt” with two friends. The game is recommended for beginners and has a 65% success rate. From the start, we purposely chose an easier game because we wanted a higher chance of winning, especially since the tickets weren’t cheap. Even the staff suggested we pick a simpler room. Before the game began, we were given a short briefing on the dos and don'ts. Only one person was allowed to bring a phone into the room, as we needed to download their app beforehand for in-game hints and assistance. All our belongings were stored in a provided locker. The game lasted about 50 minutes. Our first impression upon entering the first room was “wow”. It really felt like stepping into a different world. It was definitely a mental challenge. We asked for hints twice, yet still we didn’t make it through the final room in time. We really enjoyed it although we failed. Haha! Breakout is a themed real-life escape room venue located...

That Wānaka Tree

I was scrolling through my IG when one post caught my eye — a tree. Because the picture was so beautiful, I read the caption. It’s about a famous tree in NZ called the Wānaka Tree. So, I did some research, and here’s some interesting info. A willow tree grows at the edge of Lake Wanaka, on the South Island of New Zealand. It may just be a tree, but it gained popularity among tourists due to its photographic appeal, with a mountainous backdrop and its stunning reflection in the water. Its fame soared when photographer Dennis Radermacher won the New Zealand Geographic Photograph of the Year in 2014. It goes back to the 1930s when a farmer planted willow branches into the ground to make fence posts. It was meant to be just a fence post, part of a line to stop animals from wandering around the lake’s edge. But nature had other plans. That branch took root and grew into a tree. Against all odds, and unbelievably, it is now one of the most photographed sights in New Zealand tourism and has g...
