Designed to help you maximise revenue and build client loyalty, packages allow you to bundle services and offer exclusive deals. Creating custom packages help you grow your business, and gain valuable insights into what your clients love. When a package is sold, the value is correctly tracked as a business liability. It's only recognised as revenue in your reports when a service is redeemed, giving you a true picture of your finances. In this guide, you will learn workarounds for selling packages online. 


Selling Packages online is one area that many businesses use, to boost their revenue, keep their customers coming back and increasing their customer’s experience. We will teach you 2 ways that you can sell your packages online to your customers. In this guide, you will find workaround A.

 

 

Important note: this article is focused on our refreshed packages feature, and is different to legacy packages. See our help guide Frequently asked questions (FAQs): Legacy Packages for more information on what has changed.

 


Getting started:

Make sure you have first created the packages in Timely  that you wish to sell online. If you have yet to do this, see our help guide How to create a new package template before proceeding. You will also need: a Timely account, an online website/landing page, and an online payment method (such as PayPal, Stripe etc).

 

Important note: you can not use this workaround if you are using TimelyPay.

 

 

Workaround A

How to sell packages online using gift vouchers

1 Now that your packages are created in Timely you can start to setup gift vouchers. Follow the steps in our help guide How to set up gift vouchers to create a new fixed amount voucher.

 

2 When you have set up the gift voucher, you will then need to add the same details as the package, eg the same name and the amount. You don't need to worry about the expiry of the voucher so you can choose to set this to never if you prefer.

 

3 Once this is done you can then publish the link to sell these vouchers online to your website, add the link to your social media, Linktree etc.

 

4 When a client purchases a gift voucher package you will then need to redeem this against the package. To do this, go to the sales page, search for your client and select the package they have purchased a gift voucher for. Then you will click checkout.

 

5 Enter the voucher code that you need to redeem, and click use voucher.

 

6 Then on the next page click done. This has now exchanged the voucher that the client purchased for the package that they wanted and you can redeem each treatment from their package as normal when they attend their appointments.
