How can my client view a pricelist for their gallery?

spider-t · April 18, 2009

I might be missing something.

I logged out and pretending to be my client. They can see all the products when they click on change product, but I can't find a place where they can see the products with the corresponding prices that I've set. They only seem to show up after they've added them to the shopping cart.

Am I missing something?

thanks,
Trish

No, you're not missing anything. When they click buy --> This Photo they're taken to a catalog type page. They can then browse the different size prints, downloads, or merchandise items you offer and they'll see the price for each item. After they've clicked how items of a particular picture they want they can either "checkout" (button on the right) or go "Back to Photos" (button on the left) to add more photos to their cart.

Here's a way to design a list that is just a gallery in journal style with some customization -

Or, though it's a bit more labor intensive you can borrow this page and edit the prices to that they're your prices and then upload it to your gallery.

I've also seen people that have copied the amounts into excel and made a spreadsheet, or files saved to .pdf and then converted to jpg and uploaded as an image.

For now, you gotta be a little creative, as Phxyius suggests.

Sorcerer Bigwebguy has plans to offer some automated ways to generate client-facing price lists from your pricing, in the future. It's still on the drawing board though, and sits behind some other key features we need to release first.

But we'll get there.

Any news on the price list matter? I'd like to offer potential customers a list where they can see how much the prints and image downloads will be when they hire me.

Phxyius, this is exactly what I have been trying to do but how exactly do I borrow the page (http://www.smugmug.com/prints/catalog/ABP), change the pricing and upload that to my gallery? I feel like I should know this and feel pretty stupid for asking but I have been going at this for a while and my brain doesn't seem to be working anymore.

I'd appreciate the help so I can move on and finish my site.
Thanks,
Mary
