Add Physical Products, Digital Downloads, and Organize Inventory Efficiently
The LeadSpheres Commerce Module makes it easy to set up your online store — whether you’re selling physical products, digital downloads, or services. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the key steps to add products, manage categories, and track inventory effectively.
1. Adding Physical Products #
Physical products are items that need to be shipped or delivered to customers. You can add detailed product listings to attract buyers and manage stock seamlessly.
Steps to Add a Physical Product #
- Go to Commerce Dashboard → Products → Add New Product.
- Select Physical Product as the product type.
- Fill in the following details:
- Product Name → e.g., “Premium Cotton T-Shirt”
- Product Description → Add key features, specifications, and benefits.
- Product Images → Upload high-quality images from multiple angles.
- Pricing & Discounts → Set base price and add promotional discounts if needed.
- Stock & SKU Management → Assign a SKU, enable inventory tracking, and set available stock.
- Save & Publish the product to make it live on your store.
Tip: Use high-resolution images and clear product descriptions to increase conversions.
2. Adding Digital Products #
If you’re selling ebooks, templates, music, courses, or any downloadable content, LeadSpheres lets you deliver files securely.
Steps to Add a Digital Product #
- Navigate to Commerce Dashboard → Products → Add New Product.
- Choose Digital Product as the product type.
- Add key details:
- Product Name & Description → Explain what buyers will get.
- Product Thumbnail → Upload an attractive cover image.
- Pricing → Set a one-time or discounted price.
- Upload File → Attach the downloadable file (PDF, ZIP, MP3, etc.).
- Once the product is purchased, customers receive an auto-generated secure download link via email.
Note: Digital files are delivered instantly and securely — no manual intervention required.
3. Organizing Products by Categories & Collections #
A well-organized store improves user experience and sales performance. LeadSpheres lets you group products and services into categories and collections for smooth navigation.
How to Create Categories & Collections #
- Go to Commerce Dashboard → Categories.
- Click Add New Category.
- Enter the category name (e.g., “Men’s Fashion” or “Digital Templates”).
- Optionally, add a parent category to create nested structures.
- Save your category and assign products to it when adding or editing them.
Tip:
Use collections for seasonal offers, flash sales, or curated bundles to improve discoverability.
4. Managing Inventory & Stock #
Stay on top of your product availability and avoid overselling by using the built-in inventory management system.
Steps to Manage Inventory #
- Go to Commerce Dashboard → Products.
- Select the product you want to manage.
- Enable Stock Tracking to:
- Set initial stock levels
- Receive low-stock alerts
- Automatically mark products as out of stock when unavailable
- For products with variations (e.g., size or color), set stock per variation individually.
Pro Tip:
Enable real-time stock tracking for accurate availability and better customer experience.
