Adding a Promotion
Promotions are a savvy shopper's best friend, posting your claimable promotions in NextPaw will turn any savvy shopper into a lifelong customer.
10% off cat food, $1 off dog treats, subscribe and save on monthly grooming packages, free brand samples - you name it, you can offer a claimable promotion for it. When a shopper claims your promotion, they'll get a link to pay for their order and you'll get cash in the bank plus a new mobile subscriber to market future deals to.
Adding a Promotion
- Click Marketing, then click Promotions.
- Click Add Promotion.
- Give your promotion a name.
- Click the Toggle to select the action(s) you want to take when a shopper claims your promotion.
The action options are:
Create order and send a payment request link: if enabled, add the product associated with the promotion, then select the quantity, discount, tax rate, and whether it’s a one time or recurring charge.
Send a custom text message: if enabled, a custom text and/or photo is sent to your customer when they claim the promotion.
Show a pop-up window with the offer on your website: if enabled, a pop-up window will appear on your website based on the parameters you set.
*Note: this option will only work if you have already installed the Webchat widget on your website.
- Click the toggle if your promotion runs for multiple days, then select the start and end date. If your promotion only runs for one day, select just the start date.
- Click the toggle if your promotion has a start and end time.
- Click the toggle to set a publish date for your promotion. This is helpful for adding promotions in bulk and scheduling to post when they apply.
