Can I create urgency in discount messaging?

As an e-commerce business owner, I'm struggling to create genuine urgency in my promotional messaging that actually motivates customers to make a purchase. I've tried generic 'limited time' language, but customers seem skeptical and don't feel compelled to act quickly. I want to understand the psychological triggers that make time-sensitive offers effective, and learn practical strategies for crafting discount messages that create real, believable urgency without feeling manipulative or spammy.
