Seller Catalog/Keyword/Promotion/Reference No.


This field can be used by the seller for a variety of functions. 
  • Catalog - Sellers can use this field to create their own ChildrensBookMarket catalogs using a simple two step process:
    1. Seller enters the Catalog name into the Seller Catalog/Ref No field when they create or edit their ads.
    2. Seller add the Catalog name to the "Catalogs" field on their Profile page (see more details below*).
  • Keywords - Sellers can use this field to add keywords to their ad listings to increase their visibility in search results.
  • Promotional Code - Sellers can group items for special offers such as "free shipping" or "January Clearance". 
    Promotions can be conditional on multiple purchases if clearly stated in the description field for each item included: "Search for my other January Clearance Catalog items and get an additional 50% off the shipping total for all January Clearance items shipped at the same time".
  • Reference Number - Sellers can add their own item or reference numbers to help them quickly identify the storage location or any other designation they have for their items (example:  "Unit C Shelf 2").
  • Combination - combine any of the above.

*Catalog details and tips:

  • Use unique names for each catalog.
  • Be sure and use the same exact name in your item 'catalog name' field and your profile page 'catalogs' field.
  • On your profile page, separate each catalog name with a comma (this is important!).
  • Items can be placed in multiple catalogs by simply entering the multiple catalog names into the item catalog field (separated by a space or a comma).
  • Do not overuse the Catalog feature or it may lose its effectiveness.
  • Check your catalogs often using your automatically generated profile page and storefront catalog links.
  • Edit your ads and profile page often to keep your catalogs and promotions fresh.
  • Use your ad descriptions to direct buyers to your profile page or storefront to take advantage of your catalogs (i.e. "Visit my Profile page to browse my Christmas Gift Catalog" or "Visit my Storefront to save on shipping with my January Clearance Catalog").
