00:00:01.353 --> 00:00:06.527
In this episode we make a promotion: a discount that applies by itself, or when a

2
00:00:06.527 --> 00:00:08.379
customer gives a coupon code.

3
00:00:09.989 --> 00:00:14.016
Open Promotions, in the Marketing group of the menu. The page says how many

4
00:00:14.016 --> 00:00:15.787
promotions are running right now.

5
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:23.326
Each card is one promotion. It shows its name, whether it is running, what it does,

6
00:00:23.326 --> 00:00:28.837
when it applies, and what it applies to. Here, twenty dollars off orders over two

7
00:00:28.837 --> 00:00:34.347
hundred, ten percent off with the code SAVE ten, twenty percent off tops, and buy

8
00:00:34.347 --> 00:00:36.592
two, get one free on inner tubes.

9
00:00:36.743 --> 00:00:41.938
The Active switch on each card turns a promotion on or off without deleting it. Edit

10
00:00:41.938 --> 00:00:45.711
changes it. Show paused lists the ones that are switched off.

11
00:00:46.226 --> 00:00:48.554
Let's make one. Click New promotion.

12
00:00:50.003 --> 00:00:54.429
Start with a name your staff will recognise. Weekend gear, fifteen percent off.

13
00:00:56.429 --> 00:01:02.035
Now the type. There are five. Percent off takes a percentage off. Amount off each

14
00:01:02.035 --> 00:01:07.779
takes a fixed amount off every item. Fixed price sets the price. Buy X, get Y gives

15
00:01:07.779 --> 00:01:13.316
some items free. And Spend and save takes money off a whole order over a certain

16
00:01:13.316 --> 00:01:17.192
size. Click Amount off each to see how the form changes.

17
00:01:17.342 --> 00:01:21.820
We want a percentage, so we stay on Percent off, and type fifteen. The line under

18
00:01:21.820 --> 00:01:23.921
the box spells out what you have made.

19
00:01:25.925 --> 00:01:31.379
A coupon code is optional. Without one, the promotion applies by itself whenever its

20
00:01:31.379 --> 00:01:36.638
rules match. With one, the cashier has to enter the code at the register. We will

21
00:01:36.638 --> 00:01:37.937
use G E A R fifteen.

22
00:01:39.253 --> 00:01:44.510
Usage limits stop a coupon being used forever. Total uses is the number of sales

23
00:01:44.510 --> 00:01:50.031
that may use it across all customers. We allow one hundred. Uses per customer is how

24
00:01:50.031 --> 00:01:55.288
many times one customer can use it. We choose one, and then the sale must have a

25
00:01:55.288 --> 00:01:56.471
customer attached.

26
00:01:56.621 --> 00:02:01.331
Scroll down to Schedule and rules. Starts and Ends are dates. Leave them empty and

27
00:02:01.331 --> 00:02:05.755
the promotion runs all the time. Fill them in for a sale that runs only for a

28
00:02:05.755 --> 00:02:08.282
weekend. You choose them with a date picker.

29
00:02:09.787 --> 00:02:14.950
Priority decides which promotion is applied first when several match. Stackable says

30
00:02:14.950 --> 00:02:19.007
whether this one can be combined with others. We leave both alone.

31
00:02:20.367 --> 00:02:26.135
Applies to narrows it down. Leave everything on Any and the promotion applies to the

32
00:02:26.135 --> 00:02:31.560
whole store. Or pick categories, products, specific variants or brands. We will

33
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.718
choose a category. Click Add under categories.

34
00:02:34.952 --> 00:02:39.040
Tick Tops, under Apparel and accessories, and press Select.

35
00:02:39.886 --> 00:02:44.506
Below that, Who and where can limit the promotion to some customer groups or some

36
00:02:44.506 --> 00:02:48.956
outlets. At the bottom, a minimum quantity or minimum order total can make the

37
00:02:48.956 --> 00:02:50.610
customer buy more to qualify.

38
00:02:50.760 --> 00:02:51.526
Press Create.

39
00:02:54.822 --> 00:02:59.818
The new promotion is now at the end of the list, running, with its code and the

40
00:02:59.818 --> 00:03:04.940
category it applies to. Cashiers do not have to do anything. At the register, the

41
00:03:04.940 --> 00:03:10.126
discount appears on its own, or when they enter the code. Season three shows it in

42
00:03:10.126 --> 00:03:10.379
use.

43
00:03:10.529 --> 00:03:15.884
That finishes the catalogue season. You can add products, organise them, import

44
00:03:15.884 --> 00:03:21.103
them, label them, price them, and promote them. In season three, we go to the

45
00:03:21.103 --> 00:03:22.323
register and sell.
