Schedule a Live Sale

Planning upcoming promotions and events? Now you can schedule your live sales in advance to stay organized and promote them to your shoppers!

With Videeo’s scheduling feature, you can plan out your upcoming live sales days, weeks, and months in advance!

Live Scheduler gives you the flexibility to plan out your calendar–think loose dates, times, and themes–and keep those events internal, or publish a future live sale event so you can promote it on your social media accounts, link to it in email newsletters, and more. Publishing an upcoming live sale also gives your shoppers the opportunity to add it to their calendar. You can learn more about advertising upcoming live sale events here.

Note: You and/or your team will still need to press Go Live when it’s time to start a scheduled live sale. Scheduled sales will not automatically start at the designated date and time.

  1. Head to the Go Live page of your Videeo Live Shopping by CS app.
  2. In the Set Up Your Live Information section, locate the Schedule Live For Later and select the toggle on the right side of the page.
  3. Enter details for the sale you’re scheduling:
    • - Date & Time. Use the calendar picker and clock drop-down to choose your specific date and time, or enter this information in the corresponding fields.
    • - Time Zone. Select your local time zone from the drop-down.
    • - Cover Image. Drag or upload a cover photo for your sale, or select the Use the logo currently displaying on your website toggle to display your shop logo as the preview image of the upcoming sale.
    • - Go Live Title. Enter a name for your sale–something that tells shoppers browsing upcoming sales what they can expect to see.
    • - Live Description. Enter details about the sale you're scheduling, like the theme and/or products you plan to feature. This helps build excitement for the sale.
  4. Use the Select Your Live Sale Collection drop-down to choose the collection of products you will feature during this live sale. Type into the field provided in the drop-down to populate a list of matching collections.
    • - Don’t have the collection ready? If you’re planning an upcoming live sale but haven’t added all the products to Shopify or built your collection, that's okay! You can select the collection when it’s time to start this live sale.
  5. Add any notes for your behind-the-scenes team and/or host(s) in the Live Notes field.
  6. Select Save Live.

You should see a success message in the bottom-right corner of the page. Once saved, you can view or edit details for the scheduled sale by selecting Live Schedule from the options listed at the top of the page.
