Promotions:

 BluSynergy gives you the capability to set up Promotions or Specials. The promotion could be a percent or a flat amount. The term of the Promotion is flexible and could be set to suit your business. Multiple Promotions may be created.

 In order to set up a Promotion for your business:

1. From the Plans menu Fig 1, select “Promotions”

 Fig: 1 Select Promotions

 2. In the Promotions and Coupons page, click on “Create New Promotion”

    In the Edit Promotions page Fig 2 that opens, enter a “Name” for your promotion e.g. EB2013. or you could have the "promo code" automatically generated by the system by selecting the "Generate Promotion code".

    Enter the “Promotion Code”. This would be the code that you would enter when creating a new order for your customer. Select the “Type of promotion” you want. It could be a one time promotion, which would be applied to 1 invoice or it could be a recurring promotion that would be applied to all invoices generated for the customer for a specified period.

     Check the “Is Active” box to activate the Promotion.

     Enter “Amount” if it is a flat rate e.g. $19.99 per invoice. Or Enter percentage e.g. 5%.

     Enter “No. of periods”. This determines how long your promotion will remain active. So for e.g. if you enter the value 3 in the “no. of periods”, then the promotion will be applied for the first 3 invoices.So if you are invoicing your customer monthly, they will be charged for the first 3 months.
