This feature is available on all Goodshuffle Pro Plans.
When you're adding or editing inventory in Goodshuffle Pro, you’ll see two separate description fields: Contract Description and eCommerce Description. While they may seem similar at first glance, they play very different roles in your sales and marketing process.
What Is the Contract Description?
The Contract Description appears on documents shared directly with your clients, including quotes, invoices, and contracts.
Use this field for event-specific or logistical information, such as:
Pickup or delivery instructions
Important disclaimers or timing notes
Required documents or client responsibilities
This description ensures your client knows what to expect and what’s expected of them.
Example:
“Must be returned by 10am the following day to avoid late fees. Client is responsible for breakage.”
What Is the eCommerce Description?
The eCommerce Description appears on your:
Public-facing website (if you're using Website Integration)
Listings on the Goodshuffle Marketplace (if opted in)
This is your chance to sell your inventory with a marketing mindset. Use it to highlight:
Key features and benefits
Common use cases or inspirational ideas
Any differentiators that set this item apart
Pro Tip: Think of the Contract Description as your “fine print,” and the eCommerce Description as your “sales pitch.”
Example:
“This elegant arch is the perfect backdrop for weddings, photo booths, or corporate events. Pairs beautifully with florals or fabric draping!”
Note: To write a separate eCommerce Description, you’ll need to uncheck the box labeled “eCommerce Description same as Contract Description.”
