Description
CS-Cart Follow Vendor And Category-For a positive growth of a business, all the customers should depend directly and indirectly on goods and vendors. There should be a good relationship between customer and vendor. A vendor also needs to be loyal to the customers to maintain their relationship strong.
A positive customer-vendor relationship begins with the initiative of the vendor, where vendors understand customer requirements and serve them according to it. Due to this relationship, a customer always follows a vendor in order to get new updates. To allow a customer to follow a vendor and category, 'CS-Cart Follow Vendor And Category' add-on is developed.
Follow vendor And category addon is used to make a customer follow a 'Vendor' and 'Category'. When a customer follows a 'Vendor', then he will get a daily update about the vendor’s products like an update for a 'New product created' and when an old product is 'Back In Stock'.
When a customer follows a 'Category', then he will get a daily update about the products in a category like an update for a 'New product created' of a category and when an old product is 'Back In Stock' of a category. This add-on shows 'Follow Vendor' and 'Follow Category' at product detail page, vendor page, and category page. A customer can follow and unfollow a category and vendor to get the daily updates.
Note: Sending an email notification to the number of customers takes much time, it makes an admin to affect other activities. For this purpose, you might come across the need to create a scheduled task for your site for sending an email notification to the customers. You can use cron URL so that email will hit after any update.
