FAQ

Retail & Shopping marketing questions

Does Propel include e-commerce checkout?

No. Propel drives awareness, inquiries, and store visits; it doesn't process online sales.

Can I use my own product photos?

Yes — upload them to your Image Library and use AI tools to enhance them if you like.

Can I tie promotions to local events?

Yes. Time-bound offers tied to local moments tend to be more relevant — see our local marketing guide.
