Diagnosing low sales
- Low views: category, attributes or age-range accuracy.
- Views but few orders: images, price or missing popular ages.
- Orders but returns: sizing or quality.
Using promotions wisely
Promotions can give products a burst of visibility and sales. Choose styles with good ratings and deep stock, and keep promotional prices above your floor price.
Ratings and reviews
Parents read reviews carefully. Consistent quality and accurate sizing build the ratings that sustain visibility.
Seasonal visibility
Products that match what parents are shopping for right now – summer cottons in April, festive wear before major festivals, winter wear before the cold – naturally get more attention. Listing seasonal products early gives them time to collect views, orders and ratings before peak demand.
Building ratings with new styles
New styles start without reviews. Launch them alongside your best sellers, keep quality and sizing consistent with styles parents already rate well, and ensure the first orders are packed and delivered perfectly – early ratings matter most.
Keeping popular ages in stock
When the most popular ages sell out, a style's conversion falls and parents move to competitors. Track stock by age weekly and reorder the fast ages first.
Product page completeness
Parents compare carefully. Product pages with complete measurements, fabric details, care instructions and multiple images tend to convert better – and conversion is a key signal behind visibility.
