Preparation before use
Get everything set up for a seamless experience. Learn how to manage markets, create marketing campaigns, customize checkout forms, and set up domain names to prepare your funnel for customers.

4. Create custom checkout forms: Design different checkout forms for each market. Assign a form to a specific funnel so customers see the appropriate checkout form based on their region.
5. Set up a domain: Each funnel requires a domain for proper access. The domain is automatically synced with your Shoplazza store admin. Select the desired domain while creating the funnel.

To edit an Advanced Widget, follow these steps to customize its layout and elements:
Select a container type:
1. You can choose from four container types: Layout, Tab, Carousel, and Accordion. The layout container offers six options, including 1-column, 2-column, 3-column, and 4-column structures.

Selecting a product
Select the product for your funnel by adding a single featured product directly to the Sales+Checkout page. Each funnel is designed to focus on one product.
Note
- Products can only be added to the Sales page, not other funnel pages.
- Each funnel supports only one product at a time.
- To feature different products, create a separate funnel for each product.
Selecting a Checkout form
Assign a checkout form based on your customers’ locations. To set up checkout forms for each country, go to the Settings tab within the funnel you’re working on, then navigate to Country and Checkout Form and click Edit Checkout Form. From here:
- Select a country and assign the appropriate checkout form.
- For example: Customers in the United States will use Checkout Form A, while customers in Germany will use Checkout Form B.
When customers visit from a specific country, the system will automatically display the assigned checkout form for their location.
Generating an advertising URL
Make your funnel accessible by creating a delivery URL. From here, follow these steps:
1. Choose a domain name and add UTM parameters (optional): Use the drop-down menu to select a domain name for the funnel. Multiple domain names are supported. If needed, include tracking parameters to monitor the funnel's performance.
The system will generate three types of URLs:
- Original URL: A basic URL generated by the domain name without UTM parameters. It can be accessed directly.
- Long URL: Includes UTM parameters for tracking, which is ideal for monitoring performance.
- Short URL: A simplified version of the long URL for easy sharing. It redirects to the long URL.
While all three URLs can be used, the long URL is recommended for its tracking capabilities.
Switching between pages
You can customize multiple pages in your funnel seamlessly by switching between them directly in the theme editor. This eliminates the need to return to the main funnel page, allowing you to design and maintain consistency across all pages efficiently.
Viewing funnel orders
Easily manage orders generated through your funnel by tracking those labeled as Sales Funnel - Order in the Shoplazza store admin. These labels let you streamline order tracking and use admin features like shipping and order management.
To filter and view these orders, follow these steps:
1. Log in to your Shoplazza admin > Orders. Enter Sales Funnel - Order in the search bar to display all orders generated through the sales funnel.
Viewing orders in the Sales Funnel App
To view orders generated by a specific funnel, follow these steps:
1. Open the Sales Funnel app.
2. Navigate to Funnel and locate the desired funnel.
3. Click Edit Funnel.
4. Go to the Order tab to view all orders associated with that funnel.
While you can view orders within the app, full order management is handled through the Shoplazza store admin Order Module.
Viewing single funnel data
Analyze detailed performance metrics for individual funnels, including total sales, conversion rates, order volume, visiting users, and detailed breakdowns of the conversion funnel, checkout form performance, and funnel page performance. These metrics align with the data available in the overall funnel data module, offering a comprehensive view of each funnel's performance.
Editing single funnel details
Edit the details of a single funnel to update settings like basic information, checkout forms, and delivery URLs. This allows for secondary adjustments to refine your funnel as needed.

Setting up a marketing campaign
Create targeted promotional campaigns to boost sales for your funnel. You can choose from various marketing methods, including offering discounts for multiple products or setting up combination purchases. First, navigate to the Sales Funnel App > Settings > Discount Activity and click Create Activity. Then, follow the steps below to set up your campaign effectively:
1. Select a Promotional strategy: Choose how you want to promote your products in the funnel store. If you choose not to apply any marketing effects, the product's original content will be used by default.
2. Use "Multiple SKUs purchased under a single SPU": If you want to offer a combination purchase, select this option. This allows you to set up discounts and purchase methods for multiple SKUs under a single product unit (SPU).
3. Select a single SPU to purchase multiple SKUs: In this mode, you can choose from two template effects. Pick the one that best suits your campaign's needs to apply the discount and purchasing method to the selected SKUs.
This setup helps you create effective promotional campaigns to drive sales through combination offers and discounts.
Setting the discount type
Choose a discount method for your funnel products, including percentage-based discounts, fixed amounts, or no discounts. Here's how each option works:
1. Discount: Select a percentage discount to apply to the product price. This discount will be reflected in all markets in your store’s admin. After setting the discount, the product will be sold at a reduced price.
2. Fixed Discount: Set a fixed discount amount for the product. The discount is based on the price in the main market, and in other markets, it is converted according to the exchange rate between the markets. The product will then be sold at a discounted price.
3. No Discount: If you choose this option, no discount is applied, and the product will be sold at the original price.
Template 1 vs. Template 2:
- Template 1 applies discounts and fixed reductions to individual products.
- Template 2 applies discounts and fixed reductions to the total price of the products in the cart.
Note
Template 1 and Template 2 calculate discounts slightly differently. Here’s how each template applies the discount pricing.
Template 1: Discount applied to a single product (SKU)
- What it does: The discount is applied to the lowest-priced product when a customer buys multiple units.
- Example:
- Product A has SKUs priced at $10, $15, and $20. You offer a $5 discount when purchasing 2 units.
- The calculation is: $10 x 2 = $20.
- After applying the $5 discount: $20 - $5 = $15.
- The price per unit is $15 ÷ 2 = $7.50.
- Final price: The customer pays $7.50 per unit, totaling $15.
Template 2: Discount applied to the total price of multiple SKUs
- What it does: The discount is applied to the total price of selected products.
- Example:
- Product A has SKUs priced at $10, $15, and $20. You offer a $5 discount for 2 units.
- The calculation is: $10 + $15 = $25.
- After applying the $5 discount: $25 - $5 = $20.
- The price per unit is $20 ÷ 2 = $10.
- Final price: The customer pays $10 per unit, totaling $20.
Key Difference:
- Template 1: The discount is applied per unit, resulting in a lower unit price.
- Template 2: The discount is applied to the total price, leading to a higher unit price.
Setting up the checkout form
To set up the checkout form, navigate to the Sales Funnel App > Funnel > Edit Funnel for the desired funnel. Then go to the Settings Tab and find the Country & Checkout Form section. Click Edit Checkout Form and follow the steps below:
1. Select the country: Choose which country or countries the checkout form will apply to. Multiple countries can be selected.
2. Add a checkout form: Add a checkout form to your store and set different forms for different countries. This helps you expand your global market reach.
3. Country data: The country options are based on your store's multi-market setup, and the checkout form is chosen from the list created in the previous step.
4. Selection limitations: While multiple countries can be selected, you can only assign one checkout form per country and the same form cannot be repeated.
This setup allows you to customize the checkout experience for different regions.
Data overview
