IN THIS ARTICLE, WE ARE GOING TO DO A DEEP DIVE IN THE FLEXIBLE OPTION OF COUPONS ON BRANABEE.
FOR CUSTOMERS, IT’S QUITE SIMPLE. LOCATE A COUPON CODE AND ENTER IT IN THE “HAVE A COUPON CODE?” AREA DURING THE CHECKOUT PROCESS TO GAIN THE BENEFITS OF THE COUPON.
FOR OUR SELLERS, ITS A BIT MORE COMPLEX AND LIKE WE SAID EARLIER, FLEXIBLE.
LETS START AT THE BEGINNING. LOG IN TO YOUR ACCOUNT AS A SELLER (BEST TO DO THIS ON A COMPUTER), AND CLICK THE MENU AT THE TOP TO SELECT “SELLER DASHBOARD.” NOT SEEING THE OPTION? YOU MIGHT NOT BE REGISTERED. DO THAT HERE.
YOU’LL BE REDIRECTED TO YOU SELLER DASHBOARD, WHERE YOU’LL NOTICE THE OPTION FOR ‘COUPONS’. CLICK THAT, AND YOU’LL BE TAKEN TO YOUR COUPON AREA.
LETS ADD A NEW ONE TO START. CLICK ‘ADD NEW COUPON.’ YOU’LL BE REDIRECTED TO CREATE IT.
NOTICE THE OPTIONS THAT APPEAR. LET’S START FROM THE TOP:
COUPON TITLE – YOU’VE LIKELY SEEN THESE ON OTHER WEBSITES; SOME CODE SUCH AS “COUPONOFFER” FOR EXAMPLE.
DESCRIPTION – DESCRIBE YOUR COUPON OFFER HERE. TELL BUYERS WHAT YOU’RE OFFERING.
DISCOUNT TYPE –
- PERCENTAGE DISCOUNT – A PERCENTAGE DISCOUNT REDUCES THE PRICE OF A PRODUCT OR SERVICE BY A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE. FOR EXAMPLE, IF A PRODUCT COSTS $100 AND A 10% DISCOUNT IS APPLIED, THE DISCOUNTED PRICE WOULD BE $90.
- FIXED PRODUCT DISCOUNT – A FIXED PRODUCT DISCOUNT APPLIES A FIXED AMOUNT AS A DISCOUNT TO A SPECIFIC PRODUCT OR SERVICE. FOR INSTANCE, IF A PRODUCT COSTS $100 AND A FIXED DISCOUNT OF $20 IS APPLIED, THE DISCOUNTED PRICE WOULD BE $80.
- BOOKING PERSON DISCOUNT (AMOUNT OFF PER PERSON) – THIS DISCOUNT TYPE IS SPECIFIC TO BOOKABLE PRODUCTS, WHERE THE DISCOUNT IS APPLIED TO EACH PERSON BOOKING A SERVICE. FOR INSTANCE, IF THE REGULAR PRICE FOR A TOUR IS $50 PER PERSON AND A BOOKING PERSON DISCOUNT OF $10 IS APPLIED, EACH PERSON WOULD PAY $40.
- SIGN UP FEE DISCOUNT – A SIGN-UP FEE DISCOUNT IS APPLIED TO THE INITIAL FEE CHARGED WHEN SIGNING UP FOR A SERVICE OR MEMBERSHIP. IT REDUCES THE COST OF JOINING A PLATFORM OR ACCESSING CERTAIN FEATURES. THE DISCOUNT CAN BE A FIXED AMOUNT OR A PERCENTAGE OF THE SIGN-UP FEE.
- SIGN UP FEE % DISCOUNT – SIMILAR TO THE SIGN-UP FEE DISCOUNT, THIS TYPE APPLIES A PERCENTAGE REDUCTION TO THE SIGN-UP FEE RATHER THAN A FIXED AMOUNT. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE SIGN-UP FEE IS $100 AND A 20% DISCOUNT IS APPLIED, THE DISCOUNTED SIGN-UP FEE WOULD BE $80.
- RECURRING PRODUCT DISCOUNT – A RECURRING PRODUCT DISCOUNT APPLIES A DISCOUNT TO A PRODUCT OR SERVICE THAT HAS A RECURRING BILLING CYCLE, SUCH AS A SUBSCRIPTION OR MEMBERSHIP. THIS DISCOUNT IS USUALLY APPLIED TO EACH BILLING PERIOD. FOR INSTANCE, IF A MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION COSTS $50 AND A RECURRING DISCOUNT OF $10 IS APPLIED, THE SUBSCRIBER WOULD PAY $40 PER MONTH.
- RECURRING PRODUCT % DISCOUNT – SIMILAR TO THE RECURRING PRODUCT DISCOUNT, THIS TYPE APPLIES A PERCENTAGE REDUCTION TO THE RECURRING COST OF A PRODUCT OR SERVICE. FOR EXAMPLE, IF A MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION COSTS $50 AND A RECURRING DISCOUNT OF 20% IS APPLIED, THE SUBSCRIBER WOULD PAY $40 PER MONTH.
THESE DIFFERENT DISCOUNT TYPES OFFER FLEXIBILITY IN PRICING STRATEGIES FOR VARIOUS SCENARIOS, ALLOWING BUSINESSES TO INCENTIVIZE PURCHASES, ATTRACT NEW CUSTOMERS, OR REWARD RECURRING CUSTOMERS.
