A new price on VK: how to explain the date and transition terms in advance

An announcement about a future price change on VK should explain the start date of the new terms and the fate of already agreed orders. This is a different task from fixing a typo in an old post. First approve the actual terms within the team, then publish a clear transition for the client.

Gather the facts before the text

Write down exactly which items are changing, from what point, and what counts as a placed order in your process. Do not promise to keep the previous price for everyone who left a comment if the team has not agreed to that. Stating a date without a time and time zone may be insufficient for an audience in different regions.

This is an editorial announcement methodology, not a description of an automatic VK feature or a change to the terms of a contract. The legal and payment rules of your sale are verified separately. The example below contains no obligation to raise the price or introduce a discount.

Example message

A hypothetical workshop is changing the price of one planner model starting next month. The post names the model and both dates: when the notice was published and when the new terms take effect. In a separate sentence, it explains the procedure for already confirmed orders in accordance with the previously agreed terms.

Do not hide material information behind the phrase "hurry up, it will be more expensive later." It is more useful for the client to see the specific item and a link to the current terms than to guess whether the change applies to the entire catalog. The reason can be stated briefly if it is confirmed, without invented data about cost.

Update the entry points

On the day of the transition, check the pinned post, the offer description, the product cards, and the response templates. An old post with the previous price should have clear date context or a link to the current terms. Do not create the impression that the previously published price never existed.

Ask a colleague to go through the client journey from the old post and from the new announcement. In both cases, they should understand where which price applies and whom to ask a question. The first inquiries after the transition will show what explanation is missing; this is a reason to clarify the text, not to blame the reader for inattention.
