Add "embed" product feature so we can embed our beacons products everywhere!

By generating custom html code for each of our store products, we can embed them on any website and get the beacons name out there. This works great for us business owners too, because we can keep all our leads and crm in one place and initiate nurture email sequences all from beacons. It simplifies our workflow and allows us also to propagate the beacons name. Pro users could have the option to turn off the beacons logo in the embed html code.

Great to hear your perspective, megawinswithmegan@gmail.com! I have a few more questions for you:
- What specific types of websites or platforms do you envision embedding your Beacons products on?
- How important is the ability to customize the appearance of the embedded product for your business needs?
- Would you require any specific analytics or tracking features for the embedded products?

Hi Jacob, great q's!
- The great thing with embedding is getting the frames right (height, width, depth) of the embedded frame. That means it will work smoothly on any website at all. This can include: clickfunnels, kajabi, kartra, wix, squarespace, etc.
For reference, take a look at how fluid forms allows me to embed this form anywhere and everywhere:

I can share it both as a standalone url page, but I can also embed it through html code on any website and it allows me to have a customized form on my websites.
As another example, you could look at my systeme.io funnel page and see how I embedded youtube videos, vimeo videos etc.

If you scroll to the bottom and click any priced CTA button, you will be redirected to my booking page.
My call booking page is embedded. Zcal is the original host, and through html code, i embedded it into my funnel page on systeme.

Jacob Choi-Durham (pt. 2) Now, imagine that instead of a booking page I could embed my beacons products... wouldn't that be cool?!

(Pt. 3) Embedding is a developer craft that allows us to "migrate" sections, videos, products or anything else on any host whatsoever.

(Pt 4) Q2. Customizing the appearance is of medium importance, though cohesive branding for us business owners does matter. To simplify labor, you could consider allowing embedded products to have a light theme embedded look and a dark theme option, so that users can embed the beacons product and have it be more cohesive with their website page.

Pt 5. Q3. Tracking features would definitely be a great advantage but I do not know how much workload that would add to your developers. You could aim to launch a beta feature that disregards tracking but that focuses on optimising the visuals of the embedding process. Why focus on the visuals? Sometimes embedded products, pages, or features can look "wonky" if the frame dimensions are not right or if they are non responsive to lets say adapt to a mobile phone or ipad. The tracking I'd say is of secondary importance. But getting the frame dimensions right and getting it to be responsive on all devices is what matters most.

Pt. 6. I hope this helps and trust me, I think this is a massive win for both beacons users but as soon as you launch it (keep your beacons logo at the bottom for free users) it will get SO MANY eye balls on beacons it's crazy! So get ready to blow up beacons even more with this tiny little feature! Quantum leaps! Im telling you!
