i wish to implement
Do i need to raise the shirt price from 22 to 26? basically selling the shirt combined with the shipping {so it can seem that the customer is getting a “deal”
what’s the minimum % of profit margin to stay up float ex: sell at $X price (subtract) $3.99shipping = loss
vs $Y-3.99 = still making profit
Selling shirt at $22 Profit 12.59 margin 57% Cost $9.41 ship $3.99
Hi @DanielFlores
It is good practise to add shipping cost to product and offer free shipping, it is one of sale tactic
You have to add price in such a way that it doesn’t seem too costly to customers though
Thanks!
