Apply My Product Recommendations | How To
With ShippingEasy's Customer Marketing add-on, you can include Product Recommendations on your Packing Slips, Shipment Notification Emails, and Automated Email Campaigns.
By default, three recommended products are displayed to the buyer. The products selected for recommendation are taken from a list of globally recommended products that the merchant prioritizes. This allows the merchant to easily highlight specific products.
Before you can activate your Product Recommendations, you will need to select which Products to recommend. If you have not already completed this step, learn more.
