PRICING:

 

INVENTORY:

 

10 ROOMS broken down as follows:  (WILL NOT SHOW ALL INVENTORY WHEN WE OPEN AS SOME *MAY BE* DEDICATED TO FORCE E or others selling the trip)

 

8 d/o diver spots  = 4 rooms

4 s/o diver spots = 4 rooms

2 d/o NON diver spots = 1 room

1 room FOR FORCE E until we need them or they sell them

______

=10 rooms total

 

UPDATE FOR KAMALA (but affects the trip going forward)

 

I have just confirmed the increase of rooms from 10 to 15. Will eval Nov 15 if we drop any or add any more.

 

REVISED INVENTORY:

 

NOW 15 rooms broken down as follows:

 

8 d/o diver spots  = 4 rooms

4 s/o diver spots = 4 rooms

2 d/o NON diver spots = 1 room

+

6 room HIDDEN

______

=15 rooms total

 

NOTE: No inv will be changed at this time. I just note it so we can say spots are selling fast and inv is decreasing and if we sell a bunch more spots then we can add from my private inv that I know I have.

 

NOTE #2: Showing too many spots is a disincentive to selling more spots. Limited inv makes people take action.

Changed table input from $1595 to 1495

[Cajun Diver]

Trips table updated to add this trip.

 

Note it appears much of this was also copied from the Bonaire WIP so needs to be double checked.

[WreckWench]

Modified the BLUE COMMENTS AS FOLLOWS TO CLEAR UP CONFUSION....

 

 

NEEDS TO BE COMPLETED/UPDATED BELOW... so even the WIP is a WIP!

 

 Was trying to get these all started so we could get the table updated asap so people could start seeing what we are doing the first part of the year!

[WreckWench]

Underwater Photography ...easy as 1 2 3!!!

 

That's the tagline for the classes/workshops!

Good news... we are going to take the July trip and move it to Jan since its the 'first' CZM trip of 2022 and then turn July into CZM#2. That means we can open both at about the same time.

1. I'll update the discounts for both this evening.

2. I'll get the trip topics set up this evening

3. I'll update THIS topic so we can proceed.

 

Thanks to all!

Butch I am holding the price to 2021 pricing despite a price increase by the resort. So rather than the cash discounts we give I'm giving a free guided shore dive or a free boat night dive.

 

I do not think we can make the coupon work for the price of the night dive or can we? The issue will be if they do not put the night dive in the cart then they get a cash disc on the trip. Should we do it differently?

 

Let me know. how to proceed. Maybe NO cash discount is given and we just manage it manually. What say ye?

 

Also I have noted some add on pricing shows the credit price was the cash price so when we set up the add on's ...just verify that the cash/credit price is correct. I am correcting then in the details. Thank you!

I have changed the "1-22" trip to this one in the system.

Deposit schedule set to 10/20 for first deposit and 11/20 for final payment (updated in 1st post).

 

Discounts updated in first post - Coupons are: 22CZMNITEEBD1 for night dive as posted and updated second to 22CZMGSNDEBD1 for shore guided night dive.

 

Discounts updated in first post to match pricing listed (67 for night boat dive and 22 for night shore dive)

 

Coupons will only work if they have those in their cart if I have done them correctly.

Thank you Butch!

If they choose the cash disc does that effect how it works? Thank you!

[Cajun Diver]

Thank you Butch!

No since when they put it in the cart and do the coupon it does both as credit.  Once they get to the payment then it does the cash discount but coupon removes cost of dive(s).
