How do I make an upsell offer feel exclusive and not pushy?

I'm struggling to create post-purchase upsell offers that feel genuine and valuable, not like a cheap sales tactic. My customers should feel like they're getting a special, limited opportunity, not being pressured into spending more money. I want to design an upsell strategy that feels personalized, timely, and truly beneficial to the customer's experience. How can I craft an approach that increases average order value without damaging customer trust or feeling manipulative?
