<p>Most store owners lose hours every month to the same repetitive task: logging in, finding the product, typing in a new sale price, saving — and then doing it all over again next week. And when life gets busy? The promo just doesn’t happen.</p>
<p><strong>Recurring Sale for WooCommerce fixes that.</strong> You set up your discount schedule once, and the plugin runs every sale automatically — on time, every time — without you ever touching it again.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Set it once. Let it run forever.</h2>
<p>Configure your recurring sale right from the product edit page. Choose when it starts, how long it lasts, and how often it repeats. The plugin handles everything else:</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li>Activates the sale price at exactly the right time</li>
<li>Runs the sale for your chosen duration — hours or days</li>
<li>Ends the sale cleanly when the window closes</li>
<li>Automatically restarts the next cycle, on schedule</li>
</ul>
<p>No cron jobs to manage. No spreadsheet reminders. No forgotten promos. Just consistent, reliable discounts running in the background while you get on with everything else.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Schedule sales the way your business actually works</h2>
<p>Every store has its own rhythm. Recurring Sale supports three scheduling modes so you can match your campaign cadence exactly — not the other way around.</p>
<h3>Every X Days</h3>
<p>Running a rolling promo? Set an interval and let it loop — every 3 days, every week, every month. Great for stores that want a consistent discount cadence without thinking about it.</p>
<p><em>Works well for: subscription-style promos, loyalty discounts, clearance rotations</em></p>
<h3>Day of the Week</h3>
<p>Pin a sale to a specific weekday — every Friday, every Saturday, every Monday. Your customers start expecting it, and you never have to lift a finger to make it happen.</p>
<p><em>Works well for: weekend deals, TGIF promotions, start-of-week offers</em></p>
<h3>Monthly Date</h3>
<p>Schedule sales on a recurring monthly date — the 1st, the 15th, or the end of the month. Perfect for pay-day promotions or monthly campaign cycles.</p>
<p><em>Works well for: pay-day sales, monthly newsletters, end-of-month clearance</em></p>
<hr />
<h2>Your regular pricing stays untouched</h2>
<p>Recurring Sale uses a dedicated sale price that’s completely separate from your standard WooCommerce pricing. It activates during the scheduled window and quietly disappears when the sale ends — no cleanup needed, no risk of accidentally leaving a discount on.</p>
<p>Your baseline price is always safe. The plugin just layers temporary promotions on top, on your terms.</p>
<hr />
<h2>From a 3-hour flash sale to a 2-day event</h2>
<p>Define exactly how long each sale window stays open — in hours or days. Whether you want a blink-and-miss-it flash deal or a relaxed weekend promotion, the plugin closes it out precisely on time.</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li><strong>3-hour flash sale</strong> — urgency-driven, high-conversion spikes</li>
<li><strong>24-hour sale</strong> — a full day of visibility without overstaying</li>
<li><strong>2-day promotion</strong> — weekend coverage with natural start and end points</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2>Built for both quiet stores and busy ones</h2>
<p>Recurring Sale includes two tracking modes, so you can choose how each sale cycle is measured based on your store’s traffic pattern.</p>
<h3>Flexible Mode</h3>
<p>The cycle begins after the configured start hour and the first customer visits the product. A natural fit for smaller or lower-traffic stores.</p>
<h3>Restricted Mode</h3>
<p>The cycle starts strictly at the configured hour — no matter what. Better for high-traffic stores that need precise, clock-based sale timing.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Give shoppers a reason to act now</h2>
<p>The built-in countdown timer displays a live expiration clock right on your product page — so customers know the deal won’t last. It’s one of the simplest, most effective tools for nudging someone from “maybe” to “add to cart.”</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li>Fully customizable title</li>
<li>Automatically synced to each sale cycle’s end time</li>
<li>Drop it anywhere with a shortcode</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2>In practice</h2>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-secondary">
<li><strong>Fashion stores</strong> running a weekend discount every Friday–Sunday</li>
<li><strong>Digital product shops</strong> with a monthly “new customer” flash sale on the 1st</li>
<li><strong>Food & beverage brands</strong> doing a recurring 3-hour lunchtime deal</li>
<li><strong>Seasonal sellers</strong> automating their recurring end-of-month clearance</li>
<li><strong>Subscription-adjacent stores</strong> rewarding repeat visits with rolling discounts</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2>The promo that never gets forgotten</h2>
<p>Running recurring sales manually means it only happens when you remember to do it. That’s not a promotion strategy — that’s hoping for the best.</p>
<p>Recurring Sale turns your discount schedule into something that just works — predictably, automatically, and exactly the way you set it up. Install it once, configure your rules, and your promotions run themselves.</p>

<h2 style="color: #f5247d">Always sell the right products together</h2>
<p><strong>Force Sells for WooCommerce</strong> ensures required items, services, or fees are added with the main product automatically. That means fewer missed parts, fewer confused customers, and cleaner orders. Use it when certain items aren’t optional, when compliance requires an add‑on, or when you want to remove decision friction at the cart.</p>
<h2 style="color: #f5247d">Why this matters</h2>
<p>Customers often overlook essentials and support teams chase corrections later. Force Sells prevents lost revenue, avoids re‑shipping missing parts, and keeps checkout simple. Shoppers get everything they need in one step, and your operations stay tidy.</p>

<h2 style="color: #f5247d">Who it’s for</h2>
<p>Force Sells is designed for merchants who need certain products and services purchased together every time. It’s ideal when items can’t stand alone, when bundling protects margins, or when you want to remove guesswork for customers. Here’s a list of examples:</p>
<ul style="line-height: 1.8em">
<li><strong>Repair services:</strong> add required parts (e.g., replacement glass with iPad screen repair) so jobs are complete and margins are protected.</li>
<li><strong>Bike shops:</strong> include an installation fee with custom wheels/components so labor is always covered.</li>
<li><strong>Cosmetics brands:</strong> include a reusable pump with the first purchase of a refillable product to ensure product usability.</li>
<li><strong>SaaS or digital products:</strong> link a one‑time setup/onboarding fee to a subscription to reflect true delivery cost.</li>
<li><strong>Pet stores:</strong> bundle a starter kit with the first aquarium to reduce returns and support tickets.</li>
<li><strong>Training providers:</strong> attach course materials to each class registration so learners have what they need day one.</li>
</ul>
<h2 style="color: #f5247d">Two ways to link products</h2>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-secondary">
<li><strong>Normal force sell:</strong> products are added with the main item in matching quantity. Shoppers can remove or adjust them if needed.</li>
<li><strong>Synced force sell:</strong> products are locked to the main item. They can’t be removed or edited separately; quantity and removal always follow the main product.</li>
</ul>
<p>In the cart, synced items are clearly marked as “linked,” so customers understand why those items move together. This clarity reduces confusion and follow‑up support.</p>

<h2 style="color: #f5247d">When to use Force Sells vs other options</h2>
<p>Choose <strong>Force Sells</strong> when the extra item is required every time. If you want to offer optional add‑ons or flexible bundles, consider Grouped Products or Product Bundles instead.
