PAPARAZZI PREMIERE - REPLY TO BUY

One of the best ways to sell things online is via Facebook Live video. Here is a step-by-step guide of proven best practices to get you started and ready for success. Let’s get started!

1. Get ready:

• Select and lay out the jewelry or product you want to sell, in the order you want to show them 
• Make sure all of the items are uploaded to your inventory in the app with the quantities you have on hand.
• Take one item of each product out of the package so its ready to show
• Select Claim Keyword – SOLD (pre-populated) is most popular
• Assign Claim Codes under Reply To Buy™
  • These will be the numbers you assign to the selected jewelry/product for the live show.
  • Keep in mind:
    • 6 numeric characters
    • No leading 0s
    • Cannot reuse claim codes
  • Use Auto Assign for simpler assignment
  • Suggestions to keep track of claim codes:
    • Dot stickers with the number written on it
    • Spools of preprinted numbers
    • Sticker guns
• Number hanging tags cannot be reused in short periods of time. The numbers selected are good for seven days after the live ends. 
• Post a teaser video
