Online Membership Sales

Offering clients the ability to buy memberships online can benefit your business in many ways:

  • Increased Revenue: Online sales allow you to reach a wider audience beyond walk-in customers, driving more consistent revenue through recurring membership payments.
  • Convenience and Accessibility: Offering memberships online means your business can generate sales outside of regular operating hours. Plus, allowing clients to purchase memberships from the comfort of their homes can lead to more impulse purchases and higher sales.
  • Upselling Opportunities: Through your Online Membership Sales site, you can easily promote higher-tier memberships to increase overall transaction amounts.
  • Data Collection and Personalization: When selling memberships online, your businesses can collect valuable customer data that can be used in marketing efforts.

How does Online Membership Sales integrate with Meevo?

  • Client profiles: For a client to purchase a membership online, they must first log in themselves or create a profile, and they must also define who the membership is for by entering a name and email address. If the membership recipient's email address is not already in use, Meevo creates the client profile using the information provided. If the email is already being used in a profile, no changes are made to the profile, and the membership is linked to the existing client profile.
  • Cards on file: Clients must add a card on file through Online Membership Sales to purchase a membership. 
     
  • Notification opt-ins: Clients can define their appointment notification preferences (including opting into text messages) as well as opting into marketing communications:

 

How do Online Booking, Online Membership Sales, and eGift work together?

  • If your business uses Online Booking, Online Membership Sales, and/or eGift, a client who registers for one will automatically be registered for the others with the same username and password. It is important that you communicate this concept to clients. Otherwise, clients may run into issues if attempting to register with an email address that is already being used.
  • If a client updates their profile information (such as a home address) in Online Booking, Online Membership Sales, or eGift, the profile information will be updated across all platforms: Meevo, Online Booking, Online Membership Sales, and eGift.
  • Finally, all three Meevo online sale modules share the same Custom Branding settings, which means if you set up branding for one of the sale sites, you've already set it up for all three!

 

How do I route clients to my Online Membership Sales site?

You can embed the OMS site within your business webpage as an iframe, or set it up as a standalone page linked from your website (for example, with a button saying "Buy Memberships Here!").

Note: If your business has 5 locations (not counting Central Office) or more, clients will be able to utilize a ZIP Code Location Search feature, which returns your business locations that are within an "x" mile radius with x being chosen by the client.
