Merchandising¶
In addition to the powerful automated solutions in eSales Lifestyle, several features are available that provide retailers with a degree of manual control of their merchandising options.
Exposure strategies¶
Apptus eSales Lifestyle enables a retailer to automatically optimise what kind of products to expose on their site based on which business objective they choose: more conversions, higher revenue, or profit.
Conversions exposes products that sell more. Optimising for revenue exposes higher priced products and optimising for profit exposes high margin products. With the latter two strategies there is a direct correlation to the products exposed by the conversion optimised strategy. The strategies can also be A/B-tested against each other to see which performs the best.
For more information, see Exposure Strategies.
Promotions and demotions¶
To affect seasonal products, manage stock levels, or reward house brands, retailers can manually boost selected products to be pushed higher up in the product listings within their current context.
The opposite is to demote selected products, such as seasonal wear that is out of season, by burying them lower down in search results and category pages.

Email recommendations¶
Omni-channel merchandising is made possible with Email Recommendations, an app based add-on for eSales Lifestyle that provides personalised recommendations within emails to customers. The add-on includes several powerful features for customisation in an easy to use interface.
