How do I create hourly flash sales?

As an e-commerce business owner, I'm looking to create dynamic, time-sensitive promotions that create genuine urgency and drive immediate sales. I want to implement hourly flash sales that capture customer attention, encourage rapid decision-making, and boost my store's conversion rates. However, I'm unsure about the technical implementation, how to structure these sales, and how to ensure they're both exciting for customers and profitable for my business. What are the best strategies for designing and executing effective hourly flash sales that don't compromise my brand's value or margins?

Creating Hourly Flash Sales

Hourly flash sales (popularized by holiday shopping events) create a cadence of urgency that keeps customers returning throughout the day. Each new hour brings a new deal, driving repeat visits and sustained engagement.

Setup for Hourly Campaigns

  1. Create separate campaigns for each hourly slot
  2. Each campaign: different product or collection, 60-minute fixed timer
  3. Use Scheduled Campaigns to set precise start and end times
  4. Build all campaigns in advance before the event day
  5. Verify the campaign sequence in the Growth Suite calendar view
