This app can be used to promote A Mini Session from your gallery through emails and banners.
You can choose between two set-up options to determine how your client will be able to purchase their Mini Session:
Create a Mini Session custom product through the app, which your client can purchase from the gallery store
Add a landing page instead of a custom product, so the Mini Session email and banner buttons redirect to a landing page outside of Pic-Time where your client can purchase and book their session.
Add Mini Session App
1. To get started, click Sales & Automation from the Main Dashboard.
2. Under the Automations tab select to add a new app and select the Mini Sessions. Then click to Install.
Mini Session Custom Product
3. Toggle to add a Mini Session Custom Product, and click to edit your product.
4. Add the product name, description, a tile to display in the storefront, and price. This information will be displayed in the gallery store.
Please Note: This item is considered "digital delivery" for tax purposes. This may have implications if you are selling to or in a region where tax is not collected on digitally delivered items. If you require tax to be collected on this item you will need to create a "Custom Tax" template. Always consult your tax consultant for tax inquiries.
Purchase Confirmation Email
5. You can modify the purchase confirmation email. First adjust the trigger, if you would like to delay the email.
Discount
6. Then, you can add a discount to offer for the Mini Session custom product.
7. You can define the type of discount, amount, the description displayed when the customer adds it to their cart and any minimum order requirement before the coupon can be applied. Type your coupon code or use this button to generate a random coupon code.
Campaign Duration
8. Now set the campaign duration. The Mini Session custom product, emails and banners will be displayed throughout the duration of the campaign. Once it expires, the custom product will be removed from the gallery.
Redirect to a Landing Page
9. If you do not want your clients to purchase the Mini Session through the gallery, and instead redirect them to a landing page to purchase and book their session, you can turn off the Custom product.
10. Then add an external link to redirect your client to a different landing page. This landing page will be linked from the Email & Banners button.
Emails
11. You can now modify the email portion of your campaign. Adjust the email send time if you would like to delay the announcement email and/or reminder emails. This will not delay the start of your campaign, only delay the email send time.
12. Now you can edit or delete any of the emails.
13. Editing emails is simple. Your announcement email will go out at the start of the campaign. You can also add email reminders before the expiration of the campaign. To start editing the email, begin by adjusting the banner image. Click Change Image.
14. You can upload your own image, choose to use the cover photo of the gallery, or choose one of the pre-made images provided by Pic-Time.
15. Once you choose your banner image, you can modify the email subject, message title, email message and button text. Once you have reviewed your text, click Apply to save your changes.
Banners
16. We can now begin customizing your banners. There are 5 types of banners: text banner, large banner, photo banner, product row, and store rotator. Each banner has various editable parameters. You can modify the design, text and style of the banners.
17. Once you are done setting up your app, click Save - now it’s ready to be assigned to your gallery.
Assigning the App to Galleries
1. After you have created your app, you can assign it to your galleries! To assign to one or more galleries, click on the app from the Sales Automation Dashboard. Click Assign to Galleries.
2. Click to select your Projects.
3. Checkmark your galleries, or Select All.
4. Choose your recipients. You can choose a recipient type (main client, photographer invited, client invited or guest) or you can search for specific emails of users in each project.
5. Set your app start date and click Apply. And that’s it! Your app actions will now apply automatically to your galleries.
