I use segmentation. In the segments I focus on, buyers tend to be experienced, patient and aware of market alternatives. I set my price to filter against price sensitive customers. My marketing is based around “service” and supported by purchase experience. I enjoy the process because of those decisions.
Marketing based on FOMO can work. When FOMO sales works it will define the relationship with the customer. Customer relationships are what defines a business culture.
But it is good to be skeptical.
OTOH you should probably be even more skeptical of marketing advice from someone who did not successfully apply marketing to sell their product.
