Offering discounts for multiple drop-in class bookings can be a great way to encourage students to commit to more classes while rewarding them for their loyalty. Unlike course-style bookings, where discounts can be applied based on terms, the best approach for drop-in classes is to use packages. This guide explains how to create a multi-course discount for drop-in classes effectively.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Decide on the Discount
Before creating the package, determine the discount you want to offer. For example, if each class costs $25 and you’d like to offer the 5th class for free, the package would include 5 classes for $100 instead of $125.
2. Create a New Package
To set up the discount:
Navigate to Groovio > Manage Studio > Packages.
Click on Create New Package to begin.
Enter the package details, including the name (e.g., "5- Drop-In Discount Package") and price. In this example, the price would be $100 for 5 classes.
Specify the number of classes included in the package (e.g., 5).
Assign the package to the relevant tags for drop-in classes. Tags ensure that the package can only be used for the specific types of classes you want to include in the discount.
3. Configure Additional Details
Set the expiration for the package, if needed. For instance, you may want to ensure the 5 classes must be used within a specific timeframe, such as 3 months. Adjust these settings based on your studio’s policies.
4. Publish the Package
Once all details are configured, save and publish the package. It will now be available for students to purchase directly through the app or at checkout.
How the Discount Works for Students
When a student purchases the package, they’ll receive credits for the number of classes included (e.g., 5). These credits can then be applied to drop-in classes covered by the tags you selected during setup. The package streamlines the checkout process, as students won’t need to pay for each individual booking after purchasing the package.
By using packages to create multi-course discounts for drop-in classes, you can provide flexible, easy-to-understand options for your students. This approach helps simplify billing, increases class attendance, and adds value to your offerings. For further assistance or questions about configuring packages, reach out to Groovio support.
