What are the options of selling services?
Services can be sold as:
- a set component – for example, set of pens + engraving (service)
- a collection component – for example, notebook + Office + option of a software installation (service)
- product sold separately – for example, a device service or a logo design
How services differ from regular products?
Service has:
- simplified warehouse management – you only indicate if a service is available or not
- optimized checkout process – if a customer has only one or few types of service in a basket, delivery methods will be hidden and we will only display quick payment options what makes the purchase process even simpler
- a shop template is adjusted to legal requirements of service sales in online shops – your customer is informed that they ordered a service
Is a template update required in order to sell different types of service in a shop?
No, you do not have to update your layout, because service is presented just like a regular product.
