Creating Store-Wide Promotions:

  1. Go to Products and Services > Products
  2. Click Price field for target products
  3. Toggle "On sale"
  4. Set promotional prices

Important Notes:

  • Digital products cannot have promotional prices (use discount codes instead)
  • Subscription promotional prices apply to all recurring payments
  • Create a Promotions category to help customers find sale items
  • Use Email Campaigns to notify customers about promotions

Promotional prices can be combined with other marketing strategies like discount codes and category-wide promotions for maximum impact.

For better organization, consider creating dedicated promotion sections or seasonal sale categories to enhance customer navigation and discovery of promotional items.
