Generating Coupons for a Promotion
Coupons are generally alphanumeric codes that correspond to a promotion. With Conga Promotions, you can now create multiple coupon codes for potential customers to promote your business and specific products in your inventory.
After you identify potential end customers in a target market, you can use coupons to track how customers use incentives, how you can optimize your promotions, and how you can re-target your customers. You can generate multiple coupon codes to share the range with your marketing team.
You can generate coupons only if you defined Auto apply? = No on the Information page. If Auto apply? = Yes, the Generate Coupons button is disabled.
To generate coupon codes for a promotion that you have created,
- On the left work pane, click Coupons.
- In the Quantity field, enter the number of coupons you want to generate and click Generate Coupons.
- Enter values for the fields described in the following table:Note:
These fields act as filter criteria as well. For example, the coupon assign-to account or user needs to match the account field value that is specified on the quote or the logged-in user respectively. If the Account field value on the quote is missing, the coupon assign-to account needs to match the account linked to the opportunity.
