Where to sell the modules for Prestashop

admin — Wed, 21 Mar 2018 08:02:03 +0000

We always want our products to be sold and not in one store, but in several at once. Let’s look at the question of where and how to sell modules for Prestashop.

So, the main platform for the sale of modules for Prestashop can rightfully be considered addons.prestashop.com. This is the store of the developers themselves Prestashop, which they actively promote. Therefore, the main core of the community rotates here.

Further, I think that there is a popular Envato project. Here on one of its sites CodeCanyon you can sell your modules. But here there is a nuance.

addons.prestashop.com allows you to sell your modules not only from him, but also at other stores, but he asks you to specify where you sell or are going to sell your modules. Also on its site, it prohibits advertising of your modules on third-party sites. In principle, there are no more serious restrictions.

With CodeCanyon things are a little different. Here when creating an account, you will have to choose whether the products (modules) will be sold exclusively only from them or not. It seems to be a simple choice, but your percentage of sales depends on it. From 50% it drops to 30%. Therefore, you decide.

Also you can find a number of other sites for the sale of your modules, but this is not the volume. For example: codester.com.

When searching for similar services, see the number of Prestashop modules sold on it. If the quantity is not large, then the volumes will not be too much.

I would like to mark a separate item on my own store. Expand its developer Prestashop modules is not difficult, connect Paypal and you can work.
The main advantage here is that you do not pay anyone a percentage of sales. Set prices that are convenient for you.
Also, your customers who ask you about the solutions that you have, you can safely throw at your site.

So, you can sell on:

– addons.prestashop.com
– CodeCanyon
– Own store

If refund is in doubt

admin — Tue, 20 Mar 2018 07:00:24 +0000

This is probably the most urgent topic when selling modules.
At addons.prestashop.com, the buyer can write a request to the developer for a refund. The reasons can be different, here are the most frequent:

1. The module did not fit.
2. Works with errors.
3. You did not answer for a long time, the client was upset and bought an alternative from your competitors.
4. Not compatible with other modules (this also happens).
5. Other options.

In “other options”, attempts are also possible to get back the money hoping that the developer will not check the arguments and return the money.

Most often the developer in the correspondence in the system addons.prestashop.com puts permission to request a refund.
And after confirmation within 3 days the system returns the money back to the buyer

What should I do if I receive a refund request?

If the request is justified and you yourself know that this is your mistake,
then suggest correcting the mistake in the shortest time, be sure to specify them and keep the promise. Unless, of course, the buyer is so determined and will meet you.

Also, you can return money only during the period of valid support. Standard support is 3 months (at the time of writing the article). Advanced – 1 year, with the possibility of renewal.

If the request is not justified or causes doubts, then try to ask additional, detailed questions in order to understand how much the request is justified.
Example:
- The module was bought a month ago and only now came the request.
  The question is why they did not immediately address the problem, but wrote a month later.
- The module is not compatible with another module.
  Question: give the file of that module and we will check.
- The module has errors
  Question: give me a screenshot of errors. In this case, you can fix the matter.
You can write on the forum (https://www.prestashop.com/forums/) the question of the site from which you are asked to make a refund (this information is available, it is in the correspondence)

So, if a reasonable request for a refund has come, there is no point in pulling and it is better to solve this issue in favor of the buyer. I remind you that he has the opportunity to evaluate your module and this greatly affects the display of your module in the search results, as well as other buyers make a purchasing decision taking into account the feedback of other users.

If the request is not justified, then clarify and only after you are convinced of make a decision.

How to create a module for a Prestashop web application

admin — Mon, 19 Mar 2018 14:05:19 +0000

The creation of a new module for the Prestashop web application can be immediately divided into 3 main categories:
– For myself
– For sale
– First for yourself, but then definitely for sale.

So, consider everything in order

For myself.

This means that you have your own store at Prestashop. Searching for modules on the Internet that would suit you and not finding anything suitable, you have nothing left to do to create a module for your own needs.
There are several options for solving this problem, depending on your knowledge in the field of development and programming.

1. If you are not a developer, then you can go on one of the options:

Option 1. (Economical)

Find the module that best suits you, which is closest to your needs. Be sure to see the demo version of the module on the developer’s sample site. Write out a list of necessary improvements.
Send selected list
- the developer of the module with the question of the timing and cost of implementing your modifications.
- make a request for a freelance site about modifying the module and get suggestions.
- contact the IT company.
This list must be written in the language of the module developer. It’s not difficult to check the version preview.

Option 2. (Premium)

Development of the module from scratch. You need to make business requirements for the module.
Send Requirements
- to a freelance site about developing a module and get suggestions.
- contact the IT company and develop a module here.

2. If you develleper, then you can go on two options, which are listed above, only all the improvements have to do yourself. And the list still needs to be written.

For sale.

Here everything is much more interesting. The development of the module in this case will be similar to a small start-up with all the stages that are inherent in it.

Let’s go over them a bit.

1. The idea.

How to find an idea for a startup is written a bunch of articles that boil down to one and so clear concept: you need to come up with something that will be useful for users. Also I want to note that what you consider useful to users can only be your illusion. Therefore, there is a technology to understand whether the idea is successful or not. But let’s say that your idea is really useful and we go further.

2. From the idea to the formulation of the problem.

First, the idea needs to be described in general terms, so that someone else can read it and understand what you need.
Next, go to the wireframes -> mockup -> prototype. Here you can choose what is one of the 3, the main thing is to do it qualitatively. Advantage in the development will be the knowledge of Prestashop, Your described task will take into account all the features of the Prestashop web application. Well, or at least most of them.

3. Development.

Development is not an easy process and it will go more smoothly if your task is described in a qualitative and detailed manner.
As a result of the development, you will receive a product that will have to be tested and documented.

4. Testing and modification

In the testing process, you will have to return the module for error correction and revision. Because ideas will come to your mind to improve the module.

5. Documentation

It is equally important to create a module. From how you describe it, present its advantages, features and its sales will depend.

Be sure to make a description of the module settings, otherwise you will be showered with questions and will demand a refund, the module does not work. About the refund will be prepared a separate article on reducing these risks.

6. Support.

This component is very important when selling the module. If you are not ready to support users who bought your module, then it’s better not to start creating it. Your ratings will immediately go down and your product will slide to the bottom.

7. Improvements

Working with clients, with their questions and requirements, you will even better know what needs to be improved in your module, so that it is more in demand

First for yourself, but then definitely for sale.

This type of development is the most profitable from the economic point of view. You have created something for yourself and it works great. So you can try to sell. With minimal costs for the description, you can start selling the finished product, but do not forget that it will have to be supported.

So, How do I create a module for a Prestashop web application? We must work hard and the result will be.
