There is no doubt that offering a free gift with one specific product as one of the best marketing strategies can put it on your customer\u2019s eyes to purchase it from your online store more than other products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of free gift is known as <strong>\u201cBuy X Get Y\u201d<\/strong> method. It means when customers purchase x from your website, y will be added to their cart automatically. It is obvious that x is totally different from y. So, you can offer a less valuable product as a gift for purchasing a more valuable product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, let\u2019s try to set the below rule in <a href=\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/plugins\/free-gifts-for-woocommerce\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GIFTiT &#8211; Free Gifts for WooCommerce<\/a><strong> <\/strong>plugin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>If customers buy 1 beanie, they can get 1 sunglass as a free gift.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Setup this free gift is simply possible by following the below instructions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-add-a-new-rule-and-set-the-method\"><strong>Add a new rule and set the method<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To add a new rule in our plugin, at first you need to open to the rule page by navigating to the below address:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WordPress Dashboard &gt; iThemeland &gt; GIFTiT &gt; Rules l Settings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this page, by pressing \u201c<strong>Add Rule<\/strong>\u201d button, a new form will be displayed contained different fields. You need to fill them by suitable data to create a new rule and offer your preferred gift to your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To setup buy one specific item from products list and get another product for free, you need to choose \u201c<strong>Buy X Get Y<\/strong>\u201d from the combo box of &#8220;<strong>Method<\/strong>&#8221; field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also important to mark \u201c<strong>Auto add Gift to Cart<\/strong>\u201d.
