The IndieCommerce team recently added several new features to its premier e-commerce platform [6] and has scheduled a series of webinars to introduce each one, along with a live demonstration. “Managing Admin and Customer Roles” will be the third webinar in IndieCommerce’s live demo series.

On Thursday, April 18, from 2:00 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. EST, IndieCommerce staff will offer a live demonstration of how to manage staff and customer “roles” in the context of loyalty programs and frequent buyer clubs. The webinar will provide instruction for booksellers who want to extend the customer privileges that come with these loyalty programs to their store’s IndieCommerce site so that they apply to online orders, which can be done by assigning special “roles” for customers. 

The upcoming live demo will cover assigning and managing roles for store staff and for customers, including bulk upload of customer e-mails, sample use case, and step-by-step instructions for automatic discounting and free shipping for loyalty program customers. The webinar will be 45 minutes long with time for a Q&A period. 

Booksellers can sign up for the April 18 webinar now [7].

Booksellers are also encouraged to send their thoughts, questions, or suggestions via e-mail to IndieCommerce staff [8] at any time.
