| I thought of this this morning.. How about a Promotions tab in the stores. This
would allow a store to advertise their special sales and promotions to the general
buyers.
ie. Spend so much and get a free lego please put lala in your order notes..
Right now the only place to announce these sales is on the forum but this of
course misses everyone that may come to the store that doesn't visit the forums...

| Hi. 33 orders per month (which I will assume from our totals is actually around
120 per month) vs. 179 orders per month (which is actually 720+ per month).
It is just time vs. return.
We are trying to grow our online business to get to around 200-300 per week average
year round.
We need coupons/promotions/specials/cheap product to accomplish this.
And yes, the economy in the USA is shot. That does not translate to better prices
on LEGO products (which I would love if it did).
Have a nice day.

Aren't there any other options? Like improved service, or lean&mean conditions?

Yes, this is bad indeed. I've seen a doc about LA, wow. High tops, deep falls.
The ec of USA seems like a jojo, going up and down all the time
You too.

True I use that as well but if you are running something date specific, or needing
additional info it doesn't always give enough room.. a Promotions page would
also give those offering contests and things like that to list them separate.
You could always list this stuff on your splash page I assume... A promotions
page would just be a standardizes location to find that stores deals.. You could
even mention single set sales on there. daily sales ect..
This way every buyer would know if you want to see if the store has any special
deals.. go to the promotions page..

There's already a "Sales" page, after clicking "Show All Items on Sale."

Why not add an extra page to your splash page and then in the store banner tell
people to see it for store promotions/sales and more info? Might work for your
needs though this does make a standard page for all stores.

True, however the suggestion is being made to have a more standardized option
that all stores can use to have special public offers.. That way buyers would
know that at any store they could look there to find deals if the store has any.

Its a buyers helper more so than a seller helper.
