Offering your clients the option to order their Promotional Products from an online store often requires capabilities that go beyond what a retail eCommerce solution can provide. That’s why we’ve dedicated the latest round of Bright Sites features to make ordering promo products much easier for both you and your clients.
What have we been working on? Drumroll, please….
*Order Grid
The new order grid on the product page allows you to mix and match product options (think sizes and colors) to meet product minimums and pull from the same inventory. 50 medium red shirts, 50 large red shirts, 50 medium orange shirts, 50 large orange shirts….and so on and so forth. Multiple options, one product page, one order – done.
Shipping Methods Added to Group Permissions
Now you can use permissions to allow or deny groups shipping options. This is extremely helpful for granting certain users access to pricier shipping options. For example, you might not want to give all user groups in your store the ability to use overnight shipping, but it could be absolutely critical for a select few have that option.
*Custom User Fields Added to Storefront Account Registration
Allowing users the option to self-register and create an account on their own is a big time saver for store administers when managing a large Company Store program. Now when a new user registers for an account on the storefront, admins can collect the exact data they need for reporting such as employee number, department, or job title.
Tiered Pricing
Now you can create multiple pricing options based on the user’s group level. For example, maybe your store offers a shirt available to the public for $19.99, but when employees log into the store, they can purchase that same shirt for $11.99. With Tiered Pricing, you can have one product with multiple price levels and pull from the same inventory.
OCI Punchout Integration
Open Catalog Interface punchout functionality added for allowing continuous communication between your store and your client’s procurement system.
Anything Else?
