Written Overview

Collecting presales is simple:

  1. Create a presentation and give it an appropriate title (you can even include "Presale" in the title)

  2. Provide an informative description for the presentation. We recommend making it clear the content is not available yet, that it is just for presale, and approximately when the customer should expect it to be made available.

  3. Upload a nice background image to represent the content

  4. Publish the presentation

  5. Enable the paywall in the Monetize settings.

  6. Upload a video to the project's folder and set it as the "Preview" in the Paywall settings (optional)

  7. Use the paywall URL and QR code available on the Paywall settings page to collect presales for the content. When customers purchase it, they can immediately add the presentation to their own MediaZilla library. The QR code can be printed on posters, stickers, programs, pamphlets, etc. to drive traffic to the paywall page.

  8. Once the video is ready to release, add it to the presentation menu and publish the changes. All those who had purchased the presentation will now see the video when they load it in their library.

  9. Inform all those who purchased that the video is now available to view.

If the presales are for a video of an event, we highly recommend downloading the QR code of the paywall url and distributing it at the event for maximum presales!
