Overview
Product Campaigns are a simple way to feature a group of products on a website. Campaign products might be sale items, top sellers, highlighted brands, or any other criteria you fancy.With Commerce Vision's BPD platform, you can track the number of visits, product views, and sales for the products in your campaign. Adding, removing, and editing campaigns is quick and easy. Your eCommerce team can even drag and drop an entire campaign from one location to another on the page.
