I am confused on the wording of the themes. Example I have a collection of designs inspired by the 1950’s. All types of products are there. One might be a t-shirt with a cute cartoon on it, another might be a mug with a mid century pattern.
Event or Occasion is too narrow. It would fit for a 50’s theme party or something but there is no option for that.
More confusion follows
Different Styles / Themes
Great for customers looking to browse and explore different design style options e.g. wedding invitations, 1st birthday invitations, funny mugs, etc..
- Products should have unique designs
- Products should use the same, or similar, product type
They are all unique designs but they are not all on the same product type
Similar Style / Theme
Great for customers who have a specific design style in mind and are looking for that perfect product. e.g. Minimal Wedding Invitations, Rustic Save The Dates, Professional Business Cards, etc..
- All products should share a similar design aesthetic
- All products should use the same, or similar product type
Great for customers who have a specific design style in mind and are looking for that perfect product. e.g. Minimal Wedding Invitations, Rustic Save The Dates, Professional Business Cards, etc..
They all share the fifties fun colorful aesthetic I guess but again different product types. There may be one or 2 paper products in there but that’s it.
Gift Theme
A collection focused on finding the perfect gift for an upcoming event or that special someone e.g. Gifts for her, Best Father’s Day gifts, Valentine’s Day Gifts. Wedding Gifts, etc..
- Focus on a single event, holiday, or recipient
- Products should feature unique designs
- Should contain a wide range of different product types
- Refrain from product types that don’t make great gifts e.g. invitations, save the dates, etc..
- They would make great gifts for anyone who likes the fifties and retro aesthetic but they don’t focus on a single event.
- So where does this belong? You say
- Note, we recommend using one of the other collection types whenever possible to improve visibility across the different channels. We are continuously evaluating various use cases for collections and will integrate new types in the future as needed.
So what is my ideal collection type?
