Your friend, Missy opened a new online store to sell heels. The heels come in 6 sizes: 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44. Missy did not want to invest too much capital upfront, so she decided to stock only 3 sizes: 36, 38 and 40 and display “out of stock” message for the remaining sizes. She used Google and Facebook ads to get visibility, and the market responded well. A lot of people ordered heels in the sizes she stocked, so she kept restocking the same sizes as they kept selling out.

She meets you over a cup of coffee and shares her story, and asks if you have any recommendations to increase conversion. What would you recommend?

A: Set up analytics and custom events on her online store to check how many people are clicking on the sizes she doesn’t have in stock.

B: Setting up analytics is not a good idea since it reduces website speed and impacts user experience.

C: Change CTA button to “Buy Now” to increase sales.

D: Procure a larger variety of heels in the same sizes that have been selling out.

E: It is possible that a different combination of heel sizes would increase conversion. 

F: Try a smaller stock of all the other sizes just to see if it sells.

G: Call up some of her customers to understand which sizes they are looking for and understand the market need.

H: Use FOMO (fear of missing out) to your advantage with messaging like “this item is in 43 carts”

I: Pick only 5 star reviews you have received and display on your store for each product to increase trust.
