If you’re late sending the Classic Holiday Sale app to your clients, don’t worry. We’ve gathered all the information you may need to still give your clients a smooth and easy holiday shopping experience.

Note About the App
Set your timezone settings.
If you are using a preset to update your store pricing, you will still need to manually update the prices for any custom products, self-fulfilled products, product packages, and photo downloads.
The discounts in the apps are limited to built-in Pic-Time products only (lab-fulfilled and self-fulfilled). If you have custom products, product packages, photo downloads, or products from other apps such as the digital gift card, you can edit the discount so it is not limited to specific products.
Quick Install
Because the app is completely designed for you already, you can easily install and assign it to your galleries right away using our Holiday Setup Tool! From your Main Dashboard, click on the Holiday Setup, and simply follow the instructions. It is already updated for any late Classic Holiday Sale, and will ensure the easiest setup!
If you're doing a full setup
You can follow the general instructions here. We'll go over some details you'll want to keep in mind for any late sales.
Campaign Start Date
Do not change the Campaign Start Date, as changing it at this late stage may cause issues. Instead, the app will send out the first email when you assign the app to your galleries.
Reminder Emails
Any irrelevant reminder emails will be automatically removed if you are installing a new version of the app. This way, the Announcement email will still be the first email your clients receive telling them of the sale. For example, if it's November 30th, The 25-Nov and 28-Nov Reminder emails will already be deleted. Then when you assign the app to your galleries, the Announcement email will be sent immediately.
Black Friday Campaign and Extension
If you are installing the app after November 28th, the Black Friday Campaign will be automatically toggled off, allowing you to create a Holiday sale for your clients instead.
After Dec 11th
The Holiday phase begins on Dec 11th. If you are wanting to add a sale beyond this date, we highly recommend first checking out the Holiday Shipping Deadlines to see if your lab will ship the products in time for the Holidays. Otherwise, you will need to leave a disclaimer for clients in the Announcement and Reminder Email that their orders will not arrive in time for Christmas.
Alternatively, we suggest creating a General Coupon instead to promote New Years sales, such as a Calendar sale.
