Do you have products in your center that you sell to your users before or after a class?
For example, mats, towels, reusable bottles, sportswear, energy bars, notebooks…
In this case, you probably do inventory management on a regular basis to keep track of the products you have left.
Do you do it on paper?
On a spreadsheet?
Do you still do it?
The TIMP Store: your products in the booking app
TIMP is not only an extraordinary tool to manage your customers’ reservations and streamline the daily processes of your business: it is also an online store where you can sell your products and manage your inventory without complications .
Its operation is simple: you only have to add in the section Store section of the app those items you want to sell.
Thus, your users will be able to select the items they want from their mobile device and make their purchase. The app will generate a QR code associated with the product or products they have purchased.
It is the easiest way to ensure the availability of the product you need for the day of your reservation.
Then they will only have to pick it up at the counter when they come back to your center by showing you that code with their smartphone.
Control your inventory with the TIMP app
In the beginning we were talking about inventory management on paper or using an excel sheet.
That is a thing of the past.
With TIMP Store, when a customer buys a product in the app, it appears as sold on your dashboard.
In addition, if you sell a product directly at the counter, you can scan its barcode so that the unit is discounted in the Store and the availability in the app is always real.
This makes it much easier to manage your inventory, and in a much more reliable way.
From now on, you can only worry about contacting your suppliers when your stock is getting close to its end.
How to set up your TIMP Store
Setting up your business store in the TIMP app is very easy.
From the section of your Shop panel, clicking on the Add tab you will see this window:
In it you will complete the following sections to add a product to the Store:
Name: enter the name of your product.
Name for customers: in the booking app this is the product name that your customers will see, as well as the name that will appear on invoices.
Select a category: here you will link your product to a specific category.
PVP: the final price of your product including VAT.
VAT: the percentage of this tax that is applied to the retail price.
It will appear in the breakdown of your invoices and receipts.
IRPF: its percentage will appear in your receipts and invoices.
In-app price: the price a product will have in the TIMP app.
You must enter a price in this section if you want the product to be available for purchase in the Store.
Current stock: product stock in real time.
Barcode: used to add the product to a sale using your barcode reader.
Description: briefly describe your product so that customers can read it in the application.
When you save this window your product will be added to the Store and you will be able to make it visible for your customers to buy it from the app.
And if you want it to have even more visibility, select Show as featured to give it a prominent place in the app.
As you can see, offering products to your customers in the booking app is a matter of minutes.
Remember that if you have the Pro+ plan you already have this module included in your features, and if you have any other plan you only have toactivate the Shop module from your control panel, as well as link your Stripe account to the in-app payments in case you haven’t used them yet.
Curl the curl of success and… sell your products directly in the app!
