While creating a Price List to offer products for clients to purchase, one thing to consider is whether or not you want to offer Packages.
Packages are a great way to offer multiple products for the client to purchase under one set price. In most cases, because the client is purchasing multiple products together, the overall cost of the package would be slightly discounted from what the client would pay for each product individually. Packages are a great way to incentivize purchasing more products, which can ultimately result in increased profits.
Creating and Editing Packages
- In your Zenfolio account, click on the Selling icon on the left-hand side.

Adding Products to a Package

Adjusting Package Value and Selling Price
Once you've got your products added to the package, you can then edit how much a client will pay for their package by adjusting the Selling Price.
The Package Value can be used to show clients what kind of savings they're getting by purchasing in a package vs individual products. By default, the package value will use a markup of 100% over base product cost.
For example, let's say you have a package of 4 8x10 prints that you're selling for 15.00. With our default 100% over base cost markup, this package has an actual value of 19.20 – a savings of 4.20 when the client purchases the package of prints.
You can manually increase/decrease the Package Value amount, but this should always be more than actual Selling Price of the package. If you'd like the client to see how much they're saving with the package, check the Display savings in cart option.
When you've completed working on the package, click on Save.
