00:00:00Hello and welcome to our third training video in our reseller training platform series
-
00:00:08In this video I'm going to be discussing managing products and how those work alongside plans
-
00:00:15In the previous video we discussed creating plans and the different modules and limitations of those plans
-
00:00:22As you remember we created this test plan too and we gave them the site maker the PWA proposals CRM and invoice with a trial of 30 days and after which they have to pay $20 per
-
00:00:35month
-
00:00:36So anybody that signs up to this plan will be able to access these modules for 30 days free and then have to sign up for this amount per month
-
00:00:44But let's say that I have users that want some additional tools but they don't want to switch plans completely and you don't want to have to modify plans just for a certain amount of users
-
00:00:56Well that's where products would come in handy
-
00:00:59Products will let you create items that users can purchase and add on to their plan that will unlock additional access depending on those products
-
00:01:08The manage products button is in the top right of the plans and products page so simply click manage products and then here you can see and create new products
-
00:01:18We have no products currently so let's go ahead and create one by clicking the create a new product button
-
00:01:25What this does is this takes us to that product creation page
-
00:01:30This is where you would fill out the name description of your product the price and you can activate it on specific plans if you want and even add a sales page
-
00:01:43Now if you know exactly what type of product you want to create you can just go down the list here fill out the information and then save the product
-
00:01:51You can explore the different products available in this bottom section here the items included and what this does is this will show you a drop -down of the different modules that we have available
-
00:02:02So in the site maker widgets these are all the widgets that you have available so if you want to make a plan with only some widgets available and sell the other widgets separately you can do
-
00:02:11so here
-
00:02:12We also have the templates that you can sell separately and the different platform modules and the parameters for those platforms
-
00:02:19So in the previous plan that we made we gave access to the website creator along with some other tools such as you know the proposals invoices and CRMs but we didn't give them the earnings calculator
-
00:02:32which is a neat fun little tool to do some calculations
-
00:02:37So if we want to give users access to this earnings calculator but we don't want to add it to the plan so everybody has access to it we can create it as a separate product
-
00:02:47So you simply select the item you wish to add and then click add these items to the product
-
00:02:53You can add multiple items to a product if you'd like and then you simply fill out the extra information
-
00:03:01So this is the earnings calculator and I want to set this let's say for only two dollars a month because this is kind of a small product and I don't want to charge too much for
-
00:03:18this
-
00:03:19So I want to set this at two dollars a month
-
00:03:21You would fill out any you know description you'd like here and then you'd enter your long description here then you fill out your pricing here
-
00:03:32You don't have to add a sales page you can you can do so if you have an external URL where they can purchase a product but all of our products are built into the platform so
-
00:03:41that's not necessary unless you have an external URL you would like to push it to
-
00:03:45Once you have added your product and set the price you want to then save that product and that will save that product
-
00:03:52Now before we get to detailed and into things let's create another product just for another example
-
00:04:01What we're actually going to do is the exact same thing
-
00:04:04Let's make another earnings calculator but we're going to switch it up a bit
-
00:04:08So we're going to add another earnings calculator to another product so that it's just an earnings calculator but instead of charging two dollars a month let's charge twenty dollars one time and then save this
-
00:04:20Now we have two products and what this does is this gives users a choice
-
00:04:28Whenever a user signs up for this test plan two they will have access to the site maker the PWA the proposals the CRM and the invoices automatically included in the plan but they won't have the
-
00:04:41earnings calculator
-
00:04:42They will be able to upgrade to the earnings calculator and they will see it in their platform
-
00:04:47When they click the earnings calculator they will be presented with a choice because we have two products with that earnings calculator
-
00:04:53One for two dollars a month indefinitely or one for twenty dollars one time
-
00:04:59This gives the users a choice in how they want to unlock their products or how they want to pay and it gives you a choice in how you wish to sell your products and gives you
-
00:05:07a lot more variety in the way you can do things
-
00:05:10So this might seem a bit overwhelming at first but I promise once you create a few test plans and a few test products and make some users to log in and see how those products and
-
00:05:21plans actually work in the platform
-
00:05:23This will all start to make a lot of sense and it's actually very easy and fast to create plans and products once you understand how it works
-
00:05:31Follow me in the next video as I go over how to create a user and how to actually access those plans and products that we have just created
