Feature in Testing
This feature is currently in testing but will be available very soon.
Enabling a Course/Series Online
Go to Manager > Courses/Series, then search for and select the course/series you wish to sell online.
Next, scroll down and enable the Make course/series purchasable online setting, then click Save. Clients can now purchase this course/series online.
Link
Each course/series sold online has its own unique Link. This direct link can be copied and used to promote the offering through your website, social media, email or SMS campaigns, or sent directly to clients. When someone clicks the link, they’ll be taken straight to that specific course/series, making it quick and easy for them to view and purchase.
Online description
You have the option to add an online description. This is the text clients will see when viewing the course/series online, so it’s a great opportunity to explain what’s included, highlight key benefits, and make it more appealing to purchase. Keep it short, clear, and focused on the value to the client.
What Does it Look Like Online?
Once at least one course/series is available online, a Buy a course/series button will be displayed on your online booking homepage.
In this section, clients can view and purchase all of your available online Courses/Series.
Each one will display the total price, the services included, the description (if added), the minimum and maximum days between sessions (if set), and the expiry time.
Reporting on Sales
To report on the number of online course/series sales over a specific period, go to Manager > Reports, and select the Sales Transactions report under the Insights tab.
In the report filters, set the Item Type to Course/Series, then change Online Purchase to Yes to view only those sold online.
Booking a Course/Series Session Online
