Tutorial on Using Promotion Coupons/Codes

I. Function Introduction

Promoters can promote the coupons and promo codes specified by the merchant. After the learners successfully claim them, they will be bound to the promoter as customers. When customers place orders using the coupons or promo codes to enjoy the discounts, the promoter can also receive corresponding commission rewards.

II. Purpose of Use

1. Provide promoters with a novel way to acquire new customers. Promoters can help merchants distribute coupons and promo codes to users with purchase intentions, thereby increasing the redemption rate of coupons and promo codes.

2. Customers can place orders at discounted prices, and promoters can receive commission rewards, achieving mutual benefits.

III. Usage Scenarios

1. Assist in new customer acquisition: Promoter A is a new promoter for the store and needs to quickly bind a group of customers in a short period. By distributing coupons/codes in the community or on the Moments, Promoter A can quickly bind the first batch of customers.

2. Promote conversion: Promoter A has been following up with Customer B for some time, but Customer B has not placed an order. Promoter A offers a discount to Customer B by promoting coupons/codes to encourage price - sensitive customers to make a purchase.

IV. Operation Path

(2) Distinguish different promotion teams based on attributes to ensure the privacy of team information (such as commission ratios).

III. Use Scenarios

Scenario 1: An educational institution hopes to set different ratios according to different types of promoters (such as course consultants, parents, and influencers). For example, for the same course, the promotion ratio for course consultants is 20%, and the promotion ratio for parents is 30%.

Scenario 2: A training institution has two types of promoters: channel partners and individual distributors. It only wants channel partners to promote Product A and does not want individual distributors to see it.

IV. Operation Path

Merchant side: Desktop management console → Marketing → Marketing strategies → Promoters

Student side: WeChat H5 store → Learning center → View data

V. Usage Tutorial

Step 1: Create a promoter group

1. Enter the desktop management background, click [Marketing] - [Promoters], and click to enter the promoter function. Then click [New group] on the left side of the promoter list.

2. Enter the group name and choose whether to reuse the existing group configuration as needed. It supports directly reusing the recruitment rules and commission settlement settings (including the reward distribution method and self - purchase commission settings).

**Note: Promotion products and tools do not support reuse for now. You need to add them separately after creating a new group.

Step 2: Configure group promotion products

1. Click [...], [Rule settings], or directly select a group and then click [Promotion products/tools] to enter the promotion product list. Click [Add products] to pop up the product selection window.

2. Merchants can select the created products as promotion products as needed. After selection, click [Next] to configure the corresponding product ratios.

**Note:The ratio settings need to follow the following rules: (The split - payment priority refers to the priority of WeChat Pay distributing the actual payment amount of an order to different accounts (merchants, subordinate promoters, and superior promoters).)

(1) When the promotion product is a virtual product and the price ≤ 200 yuan, the sum of the promotion reward ratio and the invitation reward ratio needs to be ≤ 100%. There will be a verification when setting the same group, and no verification will be done between different groups. The split - payment priority is: subordinate promoters → superior promoters → merchants.

If the superior and subordinate promoters are in different groups, and the sum of the promotion reward ratio of the subordinate promoter and the invitation reward ratio of the superior promoter > 100%, then the split - payment will be made according to the split - payment priority (subordinate promoters → superior promoters → merchants). In this case, there may not be enough remaining amount in the split - payment to distribute the invitation reward according to the superior promoter's invitation reward ratio (if there is a remaining amount, the system will still give the remaining amount to the superior promoter).

● Example: Promoter A is the superior promoter of Promoter B. A is in Group A, and B is in Group B. The invitation reward ratio of Group A is 40%, and the promotion reward ratio of Group B is 70%. When B's customer purchases a 100 - yuan promotion product, the system will first distribute a 70 - yuan commission to Promoter B according to the 70% ratio, leaving 30 yuan. Although it is not enough to pay Promoter A's invitation reward (100 * 40% = 40 yuan), 30 yuan will still be distributed to A, so A will get a 30 - yuan commission.

(2) When the promoted product is a virtual product and the price > 200 yuan, the sum of the promotion reward ratio and the invitation reward ratio must be ≤ 60%. There will be a verification when setting the same group, and no verification will be made between different groups. The profit-sharing priority is: Merchant → Subordinate promoter → Superior promoter.

If the superior and subordinate promoters are in different groups, and the sum of the subordinate's promotion reward ratio and the superior's invitation reward ratio > 60%, profit-sharing will be carried out according to the profit-sharing priority (Merchant → Subordinate promoter → Superior promoter). In this case, the remaining amount in the profit-sharing may be insufficient to pay the superior promoter's invitation reward (if there is a remaining amount, the system will still give the remaining amount to the superior promoter).

● Example: Promoter A is the superior promoter of Promoter B. A is in Group A, and B is in Group B. The invitation reward ratio of Group A is 20%, and the promotion reward ratio and invitation reward ratio of Group B are 50% and 10% respectively. After B's customer purchases a promoted product and actually pays 300 yuan, the system will first share the profit with the merchant according to the ratio of (1 - 50% - 10)%, that is, 120 yuan. Then, it will distribute the commission to Promoter B according to the promotion ratio of 50%, that is, B will receive 150 yuan. At this time, there is only 30 yuan left. Although it is insufficient to pay Promoter A's invitation reward (300 * 20% = 60 yuan), it will still be distributed to A, so A will receive a commission of 30 yuan.

(3) When the promoted product is a physical product, the sum of the promotion reward ratio and the invitation reward ratio of the same group must be ≤ 60%. No verification will be made between different groups. The profit-sharing priority is: Merchant → Subordinate promoter → Superior promoter.

If the superior and subordinate promoters are in different groups, it is the same as (2).

● Example: See the example in (2).

Step 3: Configure group recruitment rules and commission settlement rules

After creating a group, you can set recruitment rules and commission settlement settings for the group.

1. Set recruitment rules

Merchants can choose whether to recruit promoters for this group as needed, and support two recruitment methods: self-application and inviting subordinates.

(1) Enable self-application: Users can select this group when applying.

(2) Enable inviting subordinates: Promoters in this group can invite subordinates.

2. Set commission settlement rules

(1) Reward distribution method: It only takes effect for promoters in the current group. You can set the promotion commission to be distributed immediately after the transaction is completed or N days after the transaction is completed (the maximum setting is 90 days).

(2) Commission for self-purchase by promoters: It only takes effect for promoters in the current group. You can set it to be distributed after the transaction is completed or N days after the transaction is completed. After enabling, promoters in this group can receive commissions for self-purchase.  

Step 4: Add promoters to the group

Method 1: Manually add/change groups(Management background)

1. Go to the promoter list page, click [More] - [Modify group] on the right side of the promoter to be grouped. 

2. Select the group to be assigned to.

Method 2: Users can independently select a group to join when applying(The group recruitment needs to be enabled)

When the merchant sets the group to enable "self-application", users can select this group to join when applying.

How are the rewards for promoters calculated?

The following points should be noted when settling rewards for promoters:

1. The actual rewards for promoters are calculated based on the actual payment amount of customers and according to the reward ratio set in the merchant's backend or the reward ratio automatically adjusted by the system.

2. elink order splitting depends on WeChat Pay. Due to the limitations of WeChat Pay, when the actual payment amount of an order is > 200 yuan, the splitting party (i.e., the account where the order revenue arrives) must receive at least 40% of the splitting amount.

3. The order of splitting for a single order is as follows (the actual revenue of each party needs to deduct the WeChat Pay handling fee additionally):

Ordinary products (i.e., products produced and sold by the content producer):

Direct promoter > Superior promoter > Content producer

4. There may be situations where the sum of the promotion reward ratio and the invitation reward ratio for promoters set in the management console exceeds the splittable ratio of the splitting party (merchant) (the splittable ratio refers to the remaining ratio of the splitting party after deducting the self - retained part restricted by WeChat Pay). For example, if the promoter and their superior promoter are not in the same group, the system cannot determine the over - limit situation when setting the ratio.

When the above over - limit situation occurs, during order settlement, the system will split the funds step by step according to the splitting order until the funds are fully split.

** For example, when the product amount is greater than or equal to 200 yuan or the product is a physical product, the splittable ratio of the splitting party (merchant) is 60%. Then the promotion reward ratio for the promoter is 40%, and the invitation reward ratio for the superior promoter is 30%. According to the splitting priority, the splittable ratio of the splitting party (merchant) can meet the promotion reward for the promoter, but the superior promoter can only receive the invitation reward at a ratio of 20%.

How to enable users to automatically become promoters after purchasing products?

Explanation of the self-pickup point capabilities for promoters

The self-pickup point capabilities for promoters have been fully upgraded.Self-pickup point stores are now operated on a team basis. Promoters need to join a team to use the 'Store Management' feature.

The new capabilities are as follows:

1. Operate stores in teams. Support B-side to add teams, import teams in batches, modify team names, and view team member lists.

2. Support store managers to invite clerks to join the store. Clerks can verify store orders and gift vouchers.

3. A new store verification code has been added, supporting customers to scan the code to verify store orders in batches.

4. Support the B-side 'Product Statistics' to implement the screening of 'Single store with multiple products'/'Multiple stores with a single product'.

5. Adapt to the scenarios of store staff leaving or transferring. Support changing the team leader and reassigning customers to the team leader when removing members.

6. The 'Order Statistics' in the Promotion Center supports searching by user nicknames.

What impact will it have on the existing store operations?

1. Promoters who have set up self-pickup points before the launch will automatically have teams created:

(1) Team leader (store manager): This promoter, and historical performance will be included in the team's initial performance.
(2) Team name (store name): By default, it is the name of the 'Self-pickup Point' set by this promoter.
2. Promoters can no longer edit the name of the self-pickup point. The self-pickup point name displayed during C-side orders will be directly synchronized with the team name.
3. The 'Store Management' entry will only be shown to promoters who have joined a team. To add a new store, you need to recruit a store manager as a promoter and then create a team.
4. 'Product Statistics' will be calculated on a team (store) basis.

Product statistics: Usually refers to the statistics of data such as the inventory, sales volume, and sales revenue of all products in the store to understand the sales and inventory status of products.

Order statistics: Focus more on the statistics of customers' purchasing behavior, including the number of orders, order amount, order source, etc.To analyze customers' purchasing habits and preferences.

Therefore, product statistics and order statistics differ in terms of focus and statistical content.
