  • Fixed date campaigns - This is the most simple option that allows you to start and end a simple campaign that will give users a discount, free resource or all the above for a limited time offer. 
  • Recurring campaigns - Recurring campaigns run on an frequent basis, depending on the dates and times set in the campaign.
    For example, if you're launching a course, you might want to initially open the course to new students during a short window of time. At a later date, you might want to open the course again during a specific times during the year to new students. This creates a sense of urgency because students are only able to access the course during certain times. 
    Use Thrive Ultimatum to set the dates in a recurring campaign that will run during the dates and times you would like to open the course for new students.  
  • Evergreen campaigns - These campaigns run all the time, and are trigged based on certain events. For example, if someone signs up to become a lead, or lands on a specific page, it can trigger an evergreen campaign that you have running in the background. 

Place Countdown Timers Virtually Anywhere

You have several drag and drop options for placing your countdown timers on any page on your site. You can create widgets to display at the top of the screen, as a top ribbon, on the bottom of the screen or elsewhere on the screen. You can also use a shortcode to place the timers virtually anywhere on a page.

You can customize how the timer looks, you can toggle between displaying the day, hour, minute or second for your display and you have the option to use an evergreen timer or set a specific cut off day and time. 

When It's Over, It's Over...

When you run offers for a limited time, you don't want users to have access to the deal once the sale is over. That defeats the purpose of having a limited deal. 

Thrive Ultimatum allows you to set up specific pages that the user will be directed to once the sale is over. When the countdown expired, you can lock it down so that customers no longer have access to the sale once it's over.
