In this section, you will find the options for building your Scarcity Triggers tool. Follow along in your PlusThis app, or by viewing the numbered step in the screenshots.

1

Let PlusThis manage your scarcity tag

By default, this toggle is set to "No". If you would like PlusThis to manage your scarcity tag, you will want to switch the toggle to "Yes". This will lock several options in the tool configuration but will provide code for use on a webpage to display how many more people can take advantage of your offer.
2

Select Tag to Count

In the drop-down, select the tag that you would like to use to measure your scarcity. (ie. Which tag to count). 

If PlusThis is NOT Managing Your Scarcity

If the number of contacts with the counted tag is...

Select an operator to use for scarcity management. 
2

...this amount

Select the numerical value that you would like to use for the scarcity management. 
3

Then apply this tag

If PlusThis IS Managing your Scarcity

1

...this amount

Select how many people you would like to apply this tag to. PlusThis will apply the tag selected in the first section for the first X number of people who meet the criteria. 

Additional Options

1

Stop evaluating as soon as one of the above conditions is met

By default, this box is not checked. If you would like PlusThis to stop evaluating conditions as soon as one of the setup conditions has been met (from top to bottom), then check this box. 
2

Tool Name

Enter a name for your tool in this field. The name is solely for use inside of PlusThis, and will not be visible to customers.

"Need to Know" Items for Scarcity Triggers

You can also set up the tool to have PlusThis handle your scarcity tag. This will add a condition for applying the same tag selected in the "Tag to Count" option, as long as that number is less than a number you specify. This makes it so you don't have to handle applying the tag your are counting in your campaign.
