Feature Spotlight: Promotions
Don’t miss out on great manufacturer promotions! Check out the Vetcove Promotions Page the next time you log in. It includes every promotion across vendors, and makes it easier than ever to find and take advantage of promotions that save your practice money! Not only can you filter the promotions by offer type, species, supplier, and manufacturer, you can also sort the results by time left, start date, or popularity. You can even filter to only see promotions on products you’ve bought before.
Pro Vetcove Tip: a “Promos” icon will appear in an item’s search result listing if any supported distributor has the item on promotion. Be on the lookout for it, so you’ll never miss out on a great deal for a product you were looking to purchase!
