Create a Formula (description, opening times, prices, etc.)

Updated over 3 months ago

The Formula is the second pillar of your business: you have resources ( your equipment or your types of tickets, entry tickets, packages, etc.) and you are now going to sell them together or separately, in one way or in several different ways.

What are some examples?

  • In the main menu, on the left, click on Formulas,

  • On the right of your screen, click on Add a formula,

  • Then choose the type of package: Pure Activity (this is the case for a trip with an instructor or a simple boat trip without prior hire), Equipment Hire, Event or Undated Ticket,

  • Give your package a name (you can change it at any time),

  • You can apply a tax to your package, which you will have defined beforehand

  • Then, specify whether or not this package has a minimum duration : this notion is important because it will enable you to create the occupation schedule for your equipment.

For example: if the hire lasts 1 hour, specify this. This way, each time you hire out, the equipment will be blocked for 1 hour. If you don't have a minimum duration (e.g. free entry to an amusement park), leave this blank. Don't forget to include the preparation time for your equipment if there is a minimum duration. For example, for a 2-hour booking that includes a 30-minute set-up time, allow a minimum of 2.5 hours.

  • Finally, click on Create

All the information you enter in your form is important. They are invaluable because they will enable your future customers to have as many details as possible about your offers and - as a result - to book in complete security.

  • If you want to reach a foreign audience, start by translating the name of your package (either yourself or using elloha's automatic translator),

  • Upload your first photo : you can modify it and add other photos that you can save in the Photos tab,

  • In the General tab (displayed by default), enter the Call Price in the From field. This price will be shown in the booking engine as the "first response", purely as an indication, to attract the attention of your future customers, as shown below.

  • You will be able to enter other important information such as :

    • What is included in the price of your package,

    • What it does not include,

    • Whether your customer needs to bring special equipment (shoes, picnic, etc.),

    • Whether they need to provide you with any special documents on arrival (permit, medical certificate, etc.),

    • How difficult, if at all, your package is, on a scale from 1 (Very Easy) to 5 (Very Difficult).

To go further and finalise your formula, we now need to :

  • Write a full article about what you're offering and, if possible, translate it into the languages of your choice (manually or using elloha's automatic translator)

  • Upload several quality photos to give the best possible overview of your package: include as many atmospheric photos as possible, with beautiful skies, colours and the happy faces of your previous customers... you'll see, it sells! The more photos you upload, the more bookings you get ...
