Why?&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because we think they are more valuable and we believe they will be unavailable to us, even if the verdict of scarcity is not there.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brands use the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.referralcandy.com\/blog\/scarcity-marketing-examples\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">scarcity principle<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to reduce browser abandonment and pursued customers to purchase from them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When OnePlus announced that its OnePlus One phone could only be brought through an invitation, sales automatically took off.

Hence a great persuasion strategy to reduce abandonment from visitors forgetting about the items they had saved in the cart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Customers will prefer your store because of the compliments and not wanting to be left out in the social media frenzy by associating with the people using your products.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Social Proof<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minimizing cart and browser abandonment demands that you do everything possible for the customer to checkout from the time they google your website.
