Top Marketing Tips

Every shop you create includes built-in marketing tools designed to help you promote the shop, drive early engagement, and support long-term client adoption. This guide outlines every tool available inside the platform and explains how to use them effectively.


Share Tools

These features make it simple to distribute your shop link and help clients begin using their shop immediately.

Direct Links

Each shop includes a unique URL you can copy and share with clients. Use this link in:

  • Emails

A built-in shortener is also available for cleaner sharing.

Social Share Buttons

With one click, you can share your shop link across social channels including:

This is useful when clients want to promote the shop to employees, members, or customers.

Shop QR Code

Each shop includes an auto-generated QR code:

  • Add it to printed materials, packaging inserts, posters, or displays

  • Use it in presentations

  • Keep it for quick access during events

Most users launch shops simply by scanning the code.


Engagement Tools

These features are designed to help shops gain traction from day one.

This ensures clients launch confidently, even if they are not experienced marketers.

Recommended Sales Strategies

These strategies help you use shops as proactive selling tools—not just ordering portals.

Present Shops Before Clients Ask

Create a sample shop (using their branding or placeholder assets) before a meeting. This positions you as:

  • Prepared

  • Strategic

  • Modern

  • Value-focused

Keep Shops Purpose-Driven

Shops perform best when curated around a clear use case:

  • Employee merch

  • Events

  • Fundraisers

  • Team gear

  • Onboarding kits

  • Holiday gifting

Clients respond more strongly to focused assortments than generic catalogs.

Use the Kick-Start Promotion During Launch Calls

When explaining the shop, highlight:
"Everyone gets a free tee during the first 14 days—just visit the shop and check out."

This reliably increases early engagement.

Keep the Shop Active as a Digital Catalog

Explain to clients that the shop:

  • Replaces outdated PDFs and one-sheets

  • Shows exactly what can be ordered

  • Allows orders at any time

  • Removes the need for “quote and wait” workflows

This reframing significantly increases long-term usage.

  • Drive early engagement

  • Increase order volume

  • Provide clients with clear, professional launch materials
