Start-to-finish number count
Scarcity for maximum sales
Heat up the atmosphere for your visitors! Show them that your items get sold more and more right before their eyes, and the stock is only getting smaller. Create a feeling of limited availability of your offers to encourage purchasing. Set a number count that will show increasing number of sales or decreasing number of stock. Just set start and finish numbers and the count will go. To speed up the purchase, you can add a button next to the timer. It will take a user straight to the product page or any other you find suitable.
