# Coming Soon Overview

Want to generate buzz for products that aren’t available yet? With ***Coming Soon***, you can tease future products by displaying them on your storefront alongside a button that builds anticipation for their release. The button is intentionally inactive to prevent purchases, making it ideal for highlighting future launches, testing interest, or showcasing items that aren’t ready to go live. 

### __Benefits of using Coming Soon__

###### __Generate early interest.__
* __Tease key features or benefits to spark curiosity.__
* __Create buzz on social media and in email campaigns to drive traffic ahead of the launch.__

###### __Boost SEO and indexing.__
* __Let search engines crawl your product page so you rank for your product name and keywords.__
* __Establish an online presence before you start selling.__

4. **Enable Coming Soon and click Save. This will now enable you to display an inactive 'Coming Soon' button on your product page.**

|| The "Coming Soon" button is intentionally inactive. It’s a helpful way to showcase an item without immediately offering it for pre-order.
