How to Add and Edit Products
Products (or Product Tags) in Buzzspark represent items from your product catalogue. With Product Tags, you can quickly tag content in which your product is mentioned or appears within the image or video, so customers can easily purchase or access further information on the product or service. For Content Tags, see Managing Content Tags in Buzzspark.
From the left menu, browse to Curate > Products..
On the Products page:
Click on the +Product button in the top right to add a new Product, or
Click on the Edit button under the Actions column for an existing Product you wish to edit.
Whether you’re adding or editing a Product, the process for entering the product details is the same.
