😨 Fear Powerwords
Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering buying stuff.

Fear emotions can inspire your customers to act out of fear of what might happen if they don’t.
Just don’t overdo it, provide an actionable solution to their problem.
