How to create and sell a physical product on systeme.io

On this page, you will learn the steps in order to create and sell a physical product on systeme.io

You will need:

a systeme.io account

Step 1: Create a physical product

1.1 Go to "Products/Sales" and click on "Products"

1.2 Click on "Create" and fill in the following information:

Name: give a name to the product you want to sell.
Description: the description you want to display to define your product.
SKU: stock keeping unit, is a unique code that is assigned to a product to identify it.
Product Tax: the VAT rate you want to charge your customers.
Currency: the currency in which you want to sell your product.
Price: put a specific price for your product.

You can also add images to illustrate your product, these will be displayed on the site where you sell your products.

1.3 Add the elements of your products

To create an option for your product, you just have to create its name and values.

Note: A physical product cannot have more than 3 options and 100 variants.

Here are some examples of options that a physical product can have:

Color (Blue, Black, Green, Brown)
Size (S, M, L, XL, XXL)

IMPORTANT: When the options and values of a product are filled in, systeme.io will automatically create all the variants of the product. All you have to do is add the price for each variant if the price is different from the initial price of the product.

Example :

The following are the variants created for the option "Size" with a specific color "Blue":

Blue/S
Blue/M
Blue/L
Blue/XL
Blue/XXL

The SKUs for each variant will also be created automatically, however, you can only edit them manually. You can also put appropriate images for each variant.

Note: You have the ability to delete variants or options, as well as modify them.

Step 2: Putting the product on sale

2.1 Create a funnel:

To create your funnel, go to the "Funnels" tab and click on "Create".

Since this concerns the sale of a product, choose "Sell". You may as well choose "Custom" if you want to create all the pages by yourself.

Name your funnel and then select the currency you are interested in.

Note: It is the currency selected on the funnel that will be taken into account for the sale of the physical product, even if you have configured a different currency in the parameters of your product.

For the sale of the products, you basically need a payment page and a thank-you page (by choosing the Sell funnel, you already have the two pages in the funnel). You can also add a squeeze page, a sales page, and even upsell and downsell pages, according to your requirements.

Note: You can consult this article to see how to create a funnel in a general way. As well as this article to see how to create a payment page.

2.2 Place the product in your funnel:

To begin, choose the template to present your product. These templates can be found in the interface, on the right of your payment page.

Once you have chosen your template, another interface of your payment page will appear, this time showing the step configuration, automation rules, and the editor to modify your page at your convenience.

We would like you to take a look at all the options to discover what you can do.

On this new interface, you will put the product you have created. To do so, you must choose between the two different types of offers on your order form. Choose "Physical product".

Then you have to select the product you want to sell through this funnel.

The list of physical products that will be displayed is those with the same currency as the funnel.

Note 1: It is important to connect a payment method to your systeme.io account first.

These articles will help you to connect your Stripe and PayPal accounts and to define your price afterward:

Note 2: Once everything is set up, don't forget to save your settings by clicking on the green button in the top right corner.

2.3 Edit your payment page:

On the same page, click on the small blue "wand" below the eye.

Once you are in the editor, you can organize the elements as you wish, but right now, we are interested to place your product on the payment page you are going to publish.

You will have to choose the location where you want to put your product.

Then, drag the "Product" element on the left side of the editor in the "Payment" section, and drop it in the location you have chosen.

All the information you added when you created your product will appear at the location of the "Product" section.

After you have set up your product on your payment page, it's time to add the pricing. Once again, you need to drag and drop the "Offer price" element, which is also found in the "Payment" section.

Your product is successfully placed and configured!

IMPORTANT: When you finish editing a page or made any other changes, you must save by clicking "Save" in the top right corner of the page. Please note that there is no auto-saving in the editor of your pages.

Finally, in your systeme.io account, you can find all the orders of your customers.

To do this, go to "Products/Sales" and then "Orders".

You will get an interface where you can find any order. You can search by date, type, or by choosing the status of the order or a particular product. You can use these settings individually or at the same time, of course.

If you have any concerns regarding the setup of your product, you can contact us at our support by clicking here.

Note: It's important to be precise about your email address, the one which you used to create your account, as well as all the information related to your problem, which could help us solve it ( name of the funnel, product...).

IMPORTANT: After payment, the customer will receive the physical product, which you must deliver outside, as this cannot be done at the systeme.io level.
