Examples are a five-pack of razors and a six-pack of Coke. Quantity bundles are sometimes &#8220;restricted,&#8221; meaning the item is available only in a group.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mixed-item bundles<\/strong> feature related items around a theme. Gift baskets, for example, are often mixed-item bundles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sample bundles<\/strong> combine groups of the same product type, but in distinct flavors, scents, or similar. A beard oil kit containing spruce, pine, and lavender scents is an example.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Category bundles<\/strong> let shoppers select products from a given category at a set price. Imagine three blouses for $99, for example.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Test Bundles<\/h3>\n<p>The first step in measuring performance is to assemble and sell the bundles within a testing framework. Use Optimizely, VWO, or built-in A\/B testing tools in some ecommerce platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Design these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/ab-testing-can-make-or-break-a-store\">experiments<\/a> to include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Randomization<\/strong> to ensure shoppers are exposed to bundles in no particular order or method. Consider testing bundle configuration, type, or pricing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Control groups<\/strong> for a set of customers who don&#8217;t see any bundles to help measure their effect.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Timeframe.<\/strong>\u00a0A period long enough to obtain a statistically significant number of conversions but short enough to iterate and learn quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Collect Data<\/h3>\n<p>Next, track performance, ensuring the tested bundles have unique SKUs or IDs. Monitor:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bundle(s) observed,<\/li>\n<li>Bundle(s) added to cart,<\/li>\n<li>Bundle(s) purchased,<\/li>\n<li>Total order value,<\/li>\n<li>Total items in the order.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The data may come from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/11-ab-testing-tools-to-optimize-conversions\">A\/B testing software<\/a>, analytics, product experience tools such as Hotjar or Qualaroo, an ecommerce platform, or a combination.<\/p>\n<h3>Analyze Results<\/h3>\n<p>Analyze the data at\u00a0the end of each test period, examining performance metrics.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Conversion rate.<\/strong> The number of times a product bundle was purchased divided by the number of times shown.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Average order value<\/strong> for transactions containing the bundle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bundle effectiveness score.<\/strong> A combined metric to track, say, volume and revenue \u2014 for example, the conversion rate times the AOV.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bundle comparisons.<\/strong> How the variations performed relative to each other.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bundle profit versus control groups<\/strong> to learn if the bundles increase sales of individual items.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customer segments<\/strong> to understand how particular bundles appeal to a given customer group.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seasonality<\/strong> to consider the impact of seasons on bundle performance. For example, do snowboard bundles sell better in the autumn, winter, or spring?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inventory levels.<\/strong> The effect of bundles on purchasing or warehousing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reorder rate.<\/strong> How bundles impacted repeat sales.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3>Double Down<\/h3>\n<p>Take what&#8217;s learned in initial product bundle tests to inform new approaches, optimizing for profit, sales, or AOV. This could include adjusting composition \u2014 changing the items in the group \u2014 or changing the prices.<\/p>\n<p>Then elevate winning bundles by investing in advertising to drive traffic. A product bundle that is profitable and increases overall AOV or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/how-to-grow-repeat-buyers\">customer loyalty<\/a> is likely more than worth the investment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Done right, product bundles drive average order values, repeat sales, and profits.
