Presale Hype Countdown - Maximize Revenue From Sales and Promotions
The purpose of the Presale Hype Countdown bar is to make your customers aware of an upcoming sale or promotion and get them excited to come back for it. We recommend turning it on two to three days before the sale starts. This will help increase anticipation for the sale and get users hyped to make a purchase.
