showing products according with a profile

[jennifervdz]

Hi! I would like to know if it is possible to show certain products to different clients, I mean if I have 3 clients registered, I want to show different products to each one when they logged in.

Hi, @jennifervdz 

Before I recommend some apps, would you be able to provide some more context as to why you wish to accomplish this? Are you looking for a wholesale solution? 

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi again, what I am saying is if it is possible to create different profiles for each client, and according with those profiles give the permissions to see certain products, for example:

I have 3 clients: jhon, daniel and ryan, and I have 7 products: item1, item2, item3, item4, item5, item6, item7. What I need is when this clients visit my store they login and then they will be able in see in their profiles this:

jhon = item1, item3, item4;

daniel = item2

and show ryan = item5, item6, item7

Like something similar to favorites products, but they don't add those into favorites, I added for them and show them just those products.

They will still going to be able to see all the products if they click in a button or tab menu that says shows all.

What is the point of this, is to save time to the clients, because the store has thousands of products but the idea is they won't have to look for the products, is just according with the profile I am going to filter the products they need and show it to them.

This is thinking for a store with just a few clients (no more than 30) but with a lot of products and who buy constantly

Thanks for your detailed explanation, @jennifervdz 

I have a couple more questions for you: 

• Are these existing clients you are already working with, or are they new? 
• How will you be determining what products to show these clients?

Thanks again!

Hi, the store will be brand new, like is not for an existing store in
shopify, so the clients will be new, they will have to register or I can
create the profiles for them, it depends of what is the easiest thing to
do, and to determinate how to show the products would be by tags, or
collections, that's what I think is the easiest.

Thanks for clarifying, Jennifer!

What you currently in mind will take a high amount of effort for both you and the buyer. Ultimately, you should focus on making the buying process as easy as possible for your customers.

If you are going to have a large amount of products in your store, you can utilize digital marketing to get the right products to the right people at the right time.

but is it possible? I was thinking I could make it work with the favorites
tool

You could use wholesale apps such as Locksmith or Wholesaler to show specific products to specific customers. 

Hope this helps!
