Overview

Track Customer Requests Effortlessly with Resell4.me

What Is a Consignment Wish List?

Resell4.me (Resell4.me) simplifies the process by offering an integrated wish list feature, making it easy to create, view, and manage customer requests for consignment items. Whether it's a particular piece of furniture, a designer handbag, or vintage clothing, the Resell4.me wish list feature helps store owners quickly match requests to incoming inventory.

How to Create a Wish List in Resell4.me

Creating a wish list entry in Resell4.me is straightforward. Follow these simple steps:

  • Navigate to the main toolbar in Resell4.me and click on "New Wish List Entry."
  • Fill in all necessary details for the requested item, including a thorough description, category, and any specific details (e.g., brand, size).
  • Enter the customer's contact information to ensure they can be notified if a matching item becomes available.
  • Once all information is entered, click "OK" to save the wish list entry.

The wish list feature is designed to be user-friendly, ensuring that all important details are recorded in a format that is easily searchable when new inventory arrives.

Viewing and Matching Wish List Requests

To view the wish list, click on the "View Wish List" button located on the main toolbar. The view window contains two tables:

  • Upper Table: Displays a complete list of all current wish list requests from customers. Each entry shows the requested item's details.
  • Lower Table: Shows potential inventory matches based on the selected criteria. You can switch between matching items by either category or by matching the description and details of the request.

This dual-table view makes it easy to check for items in stock that may fulfill a customer's wish list request. Simply click on a request to update the lower table with possible matches, ensuring that your customers never miss an opportunity to find what they are looking for.

Managing and Editing Wish List Entries

As store inventory changes, you may need to update or remove wish list entries. Resell4.me makes managing these entries a breeze. From the view window, you have the option to:

  • Edit a Request: Select a request and click "Edit" to modify any details, whether it's a description, customer contact information, or preferences.
  • Delete a Request: If an item is found or the customer no longer wishes to purchase the item, you can easily delete the entry from the list.

The Resell4.me wish list feature allows for seamless management of customer requests, making it simple to keep your list accurate and up to date.

Using the Wish List to Boost Sales

The wish list is not only a tool for tracking customer requests but also a powerful sales tool. When a match is found between a customer's wish list request and an item in your inventory, Resell4.me enables you to open a New Sale Screen directly from the wish list view. The customer's details are pre-filled, and the matching item is added to the sale. From there, the sale can be processed as you would any other transaction, making it easy to fulfill requests and generate revenue.

By proactively managing your wish list, you can increase customer satisfaction, provide a personalized shopping experience, and boost sales.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a consignment wish list and how does it benefit a shop?

A consignment wish list is a record of items customers have specifically requested but that are not currently in stock. When a matching item arrives in inventory, the shop can immediately notify the interested customer and close a sale that might otherwise be missed. Resell4.me includes a built-in wish list feature that makes this matching process fast and systematic.

How does Resell4.me match wish list requests to incoming inventory?

Resell4.me's wish list view displays all open customer requests in one table and automatically shows potential inventory matches in a second table below it. Matches can be filtered by category or by description keywords, making it easy to spot when a newly entered item satisfies a standing customer request.

Can I open a sale directly from the wish list in Resell4.me?

Yes. When a wish list match is found, Resell4.me allows you to open a new sale screen directly from the wish list view with the customer's details and the matching item pre-filled. This makes it possible to complete the transaction in seconds once you contact the customer β€” no re-entering of information needed.

How much does Resell4.me cost for shops that want wish list tracking?

Resell4.me starts at $49/month for the Essentials plan (or $1,470 one-time) and $89/month for the Professional plan (or $2,670 one-time). The wish list feature is included in the platform β€” there is no separate charge for this capability. Plans are cloud-based, work on any device, and require no long-term contract.

Can a single customer have multiple items on their wish list?

Yes. Multiple wish list entries can be created for a single customer, each tracking a different item they are seeking. This is useful for customers who collect specific categories like vintage clothing in particular sizes, specific furniture styles, or hard-to-find collectibles β€” Resell4.me keeps each request tracked independently.
