how to mark preorder items in shopify

i am here to show you how you can use,shopify and set up a pre-sale in the,back end of your store,so that you can properly track your,orders some big advantages about,pre-sale as a business owner sometimes,you really just don't know what to,expect and what's going to happen going,the pre-sale route is a great option,even if you want,to launch new products down the pipe you,can have a pre-sale for anything,it gives you the finances to purchase,things it gets customers excited it,gives,your loyal customers a chance to,bite at what's new and what you're,offering so pre-sales are a way to go i,am going to walk through how to get that,set up in the back of the end of your,shopify store so what you want to do is,if you're familiar with shopify and go,to your products,and i am just going to choose one of my,candles here i'm just going to choose my,beautiful scent here,and so when you are entering products,into the backend of your store as you,prepare for your pre-sale,you're going to fill this product page,out this is what customers are going to,see,when they click on that particular scent,it's going to take them to this product,page,and so,of course you want to enter the title of,your scent or your candle,feel free to add a few images here,again this is what the customer will see,this is pretty much just setting up what,your product page will look like,what i advise is when you're doing a,pre-sale is to absolutely,make sure pre-order or pre-sale is as,visible as possible so that nobody is,confused right and so what i recommend,is definitely putting,pre-order,in the title,and make sure it's absolutely,noticeable,you don't want to give customers any,excuse to wonder where their order is,i also recommend one thing that i did,was when i was filling out my,description page i also did it here,and then below that i listed out or,explain the terms,orders,will,begin to ship,out on,say 4 28,and so that way you can bold it you,could do whatever whatever makes,it,something that customers it will stick,out to customers and so this is what i,did i gave them the time frame so that,that way they know exactly when the,pre-sell in and when they can begin to,expect their orders to ship out to begin,shipping out so on,april 28th for example that is when i,will be headed to the post office right,and from then the post office,will it will be based on the tracking,from there and so when it comes to doing,a pre-sale you definitely want to make,sure you lay out the terms and so that,number one customers are fully aware on,when it's going to happen,you know when it ends when they can,expect their order but also,make sure you are doing your best to,estimate,timing so make sure you,give a good window and when it comes to,pre-orders and pre-sales that's pretty,common and popular in the retail world,so,customers are not oblivious as to how,long things will take to come to them,it's a pre-sale it's your new business,so they're expecting to wait at you know,and take some time so,make sure you also throw some incentives,in there i know for me i i threw samples,i also threw a discount um card in there,so that way they can come back and have,10 off their next order i gave them some,extra goodies so that way you know they,it was worth the wait and so when it,comes to setting up your pre-sale,what you want to do is go ahead and set,your price,and so i sell my candles for 15,cost per item it's not required to enter,here but i like to enter it because it,just you know it just kind of gives me,an idea what my margin is and how much,i'm profiting off of each candle this,that in the third you want to make sure,you're charging tax,and you're collecting your sales taxes,you know in your state that is important,and then here this is where the pre-sale,glory happens right,and so not only do you want to have,check track quantity right you want to,be able to track how many of this,particular scent you're getting so that,way you know how many of that scent you,need to make but you also want to turn,this little baby on,continue selling without a went out of,stock and so what that is basically,telling shopify to do is although you,don't have any inventory you're getting,people to buy into you you're getting,people to buy into your product before,you even made it and so you don't have,any inventory you are technically not in,stock of anything so you're telling,shopify don't worry about that keep,selling and so what's going to happen is,when you begin to make sales you're,going to see negative numbers so let's,say during your pre-sale,time let's say 20 people purchase,actually say negative 20 because i don't,have anything in stock,so um shopify is looking at that as a,negative number because i chose to tell,it to continue to sell,although i don't have any in stock so,negative 20,when you go to,now see what you need to do and how many,you need to buy you know that,20 people purchase that is how you tell,shopify to do that,and then you finish on setting up the,rest of everything else this is a,physical product you put in the weight,and you set up the country and all of,that jazz that is probably one of the,easiest ways to do it and then once,you're pre-sell in i'm very old school,what i did is um,i just went in to my product page,and you know you go see how many orders,you have and you begin to track
