What are pre-orders?

By enabling pre-orders in your online store, customers can order products that are currently out of stock, like items temporarily sold out or that you plan to officially launch later. Pre-orders give you revenue before you even send a product out the door.

How did pre-orders help BraveBrew start generating revenue?

BraveBrew embarked on its journey in February 2023 when it created an online store in just two weekends. As soon as their website went live, the company began receiving orders almost immediately thanks to the pre-order feature. Not only did they start earning money right away, but it also allowed them to efficiently manage and customize pre-orders. They could specify order limits, define availability dates, and offer live inventory updates. Pre-orders are great for business!
