ProductCart Build To Order demo: selling printing services online
Build an online print shop with ProductCart Build To Order
This demo uses the Build To Order version of ProductCart (Details - Buy). ProductCart Build To Order can be used to sell custom printing services over the Internet. What kind of paper? How many colors? Front & back? You can prompt customers to choose from a variety of options, changing the price in real time as they do so. The built-in Help Desk will help you collect graphics and other information from the customer after the purchase, or upload a proof for the customer to look at.
Demo Notes
- Try placing an order for custom business cards. Note how the unit price for certain selectable options (e.g. type of paper, number of colors, etc.) changes dynamically as the purchased quantity is changed.
- In addition, note how the second step of the product configuration process consists of selecting items whose price does not change regardless of the quantity purchased. (e.g. film setup charge, rush order charge, etc.). These selectable options are not a function of the quantity ordered: they remain the same regardless of whether you order 500 or 5,000 business cards. This is one of the new, powerful features added to v2.6 of ProductCart Build To Order, and it gives you a tremendous amount of flexibility when setting up a configurable product or service.
- On the same demo store, try placing an order for the Deluxe Office Basket and notice how a quantity field is shown for some selectable items, but not others. Also notice how some items have a yellow discount icon next to them, indicating that certain quantity discounts apply to those items (click on the icon to view the discounts in a pop-up window). In addition, you will see that no default configuration has been set for the product, which forces customers to go through the configuration steps (i.e. the product cannot be purchased “as is”).
- Note that prices, product names, and product descriptions are completely fictitious on these stores, and that the number and type of demo stores featured on the Early Impact Web site may change over time. In addition, please note that although the databases behind these sample stores are reset on a regular basis, these demos are fully functional and therefore they are modified during the day by other existing or prospective ProductCart users who may change many of the store settings. Sometimes this results into the stores not functioning properly.
