Product Selection Strategy
High-Margin Items
Focus on products with strong profit margins:
Example: If selling $30 shirt, feature $80 premium jacket
Benefit: Maximize revenue per conversion
Bestsellers
Leverage social proof of popular items:
Example: "Our #1 Bestseller" or "Customer Favorite"
Benefit: High conversion due to popularity
Strategic Products
Promote items aligned with business goals:
Example: New collection launch or seasonal items
Benefit: Inventory management and strategic focus
Pricing Strategy
Sweet Spot: 50-100% of average cart value
Example: $75 cart value → Feature $50-$100 product
Too Low: <30% of cart value (not compelling)
Too High: >150% of cart value (overwhelming)
Display Rules for Featured Upsells
Cart Value-Based
Show featured premium product when cart < $100
Reasoning: Opportunity to increase order value
Product Category-Based
Show complementary featured product based on cart contents
Example: Cart has running shoes → Feature premium running socks
Customer Segment-Based
Show different featured products to different segments:
- New customers: Bestseller (proven choice)
- Returning customers: New arrival (variety)
- VIP customers: Premium exclusive item
Seasonal Strategy
Show seasonal featured products:
- Summer: Sunglasses, swimwear
- Winter: Outerwear, cold weather accessories
- Holidays: Gift sets, special editions
Featured Product Upsells work best for strategic, high-value items. For multiple product recommendations, use Product List Upsell or Carousel Upsell instead.
