It occured to me after seeing Andy's response that my replies were just me being opinionated and not even providing a solution...

Andy had some great feedback.

Let me state that I use exitsplash A LOT but the ways we use it is to tell them of an un-announced bonus. That bonus is something that they would have gotten anyways but we specifically leave it off the salespage so that we can use it as a final grab.

OR we introduce spilt pricing. The full price stays the same but 2 payments.

OR, we throw them to a squeeze page. If they didn't buy maybe we can at least get them to opt-in.

OR, finally, we take them to a shorter, more condensed pitch page with new testimonials.

Etc.

I'm not a fan of discounting either. But I wanted to clarify that I AM a fan of capturing exit traffic.
