What are Dynamic Countdown Timers?
Dynamic Countdown Timers count down from a specific event, such as a transaction or action taken by a user.
Say that you have a 7 day trial for your product, and you want to let the user know that they have N days remaining. You can send them an email with a dynamic timer that will count down the time remaining specifically for that user. Perfect automation.
Why Use Dynamic Countdown timers?
- Improve trial to paid conversion rates.
- Get your users to take action.
- Add urgency and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) to your emails.
- Use for any type of transactional email.
- Ultimately, increase the value of your event or product launch.
How to Use Dynamic Countdown Timers
How to add a Dynamic Timer to your Transaction Email
- Create a new timer in your Sendtric dashboard and select the Dynamic type.
- Copy and paste the HTML code to your email service provider’s HTML block.
- Ensure you add the unix timestamp variable (a widely used timestamp normally used to record when a transaction action was done such as the ‘send time of an email’.
- Add the duration you want the timer to count down from to the code with a static number of seconds. For example, <UNIX_TIMESTAMP>+600 to countdown for 10 minutes (600 seconds) from the point of time at the specified timestamp.
- Watch your trial to paid conversion rate jump sky high!
