The Run Free Project is an all-in-one commerce platform built for run specialty stores and designed to scale their businesses online, in-store, and everywhere in between. Here are just a few things you can do with the platform:
- Create and customize your website
- Create and customize an online store that marries to your point of sale (POS) system to automate everything
- Automate and sync sales channels, including web, mobile, social media, and brick-and-mortar
- List your in-store inventory + endless aisle virtual inventory from the major run specialty brands
- Manage products, inventory, payments, shipping, and everything else on-the-fly
- Manage your Apple and Android Rewards App, including mileage gamification and push notifications
Our custom-branded Loyalty App product puts a mobile app in the Apple App Store and Google Play that’s custom-branded for you. Your customers can download it for free, shop, track miles with popular fitness integrations (such as Strava, Apple Health, Garmin, etc.), earn rewards by attending events plus shopping online and in-store, and sign up for then check into your events.
You manage the Loyalty Apps from within your Run Free Project platform, where you can manage and post events and news, set loyalty point calculations and redemption options, gamify mileage for your customers, and send group-specific push notifications to users in real-time or on a schedule. Plus so much more.
Relay is our dropship-style endless aisle offering. There’s no extra charge to use it, and it enables you to extend the inventory you offer online to include everything your favorite vendors carry, even the stuff you don’t have in stock. Plus, it automatically synchronizes order information with your POS system.
A seamless combination of your in-stock items and the Relay items you choose to offer will appear in your online storefront. To your customer, the ordering and payment process is the same whether the items they buy are Relay, in-stock, or a combination of the two. They can even choose between direct shipment and in-store pickup.
The Run Free Project platform is $399 per month flat-rate. This includes unrestricted functionality across our website builder, POS-integrated ecommerce, Relay (our brand-fed endless aisle solution), social media automations, our integrations library, and 24/7/365 live support.
The Run Free Project’s Custom-Branded Loyalty Apps for Apple and Android devices is $499 per month. This includes initial design, app store listing management (including all recurring app updates and approvals), our integrations library, and 24/7/365 tech support for you AND your customers.
These products can be purchased as a bundle or a la carte. We do not charge transaction fees or commissions.
Nope. The Run Free Project is designed to be simple and pain-free. We never charge commissions or transaction fees of any kind (even for endless aisle sales). There aren’t any hidden costs either. All subscriptions are a flat monthly rate.
