Can I offer a discount to businesses that have a standing order with me- say 10% (like buying in bulk) and, if so, when they order do I pay the difference 10% andhow do I do that on the order form? Thanks!:)
 
your business, your terms. :)Yes, you can give away the farm if you wanted.... anything you choose to do, it's your business.

When you enter the order into PP, under payment you choose Consultant's Gifts for the 10% difference you are giving.

It will ask you if you want to add this to your expense sheet, answer yes. How'd you get a company?

Hope this helps. :D

You can offer any extra incentive you want and yes you do pay the difference. (technically it's off your commission but you have to pay it with the order) You pay the difference by doing a drop down under payment and choosing "consultant gift".
 
10 %I have a customer who buys from me about 3-4 times a year and spends about $800 a time. I offer him a 10% discount and I also put my business card in with the products!

If that person buys $800 a time, they would have a show and therefore get their own discount number you can use each time, When it expires hopefully they would be ready to buy again. Don't take it out of your pocket if you don't have to!
Good for you for getting in on a great customer!!
 
So true ChefNic- I weighed that option but then I get all host benefits, etc. I can't afford to buy all the stuff I need and if I don't have a good month during an consultant promotion, This helps me! I usually give him something extra for his wife. Thanks though!

How do I set up a standing order?
